They're yummy

Why do Lunchables taste so much better than doing the same thing with individual ingredients.

I've got deli meat from the local deli, Ritza crackers, and Kraft cheese slices....it is NOTHING like a Lunchable

Did you know this is basically a lunch? When you think about it, crackers are just bread, so this is essentially a ham and cheese sandwich. When I was a kid we had tacos and burgers and hot dogs all from the same brand, so it seems odd to me now to look at the original

>Buy high quality crackers, lunch meat, and cheese and combine them
>It doesn't taste as good as Lunchables

Explain this
