This is an ad Google had put in Mensa Bulletin a few months ago. To quote the ad. "Are you a compulsive problem solver? You should join us here at Google Labs, where a whole bunch of people who love challenges have come together to change the way the wourld organizes information. It's a big job. We may need your big, high-performance brain to help us out."

The actual ad (the pdf I created has the borders cut off) has "If you were expecting to find the answer here, sorry, that's way too easy. But send us the right answer and your resume goes to the front of the line. labjobs@google.com" upside down in the lower right hand corner where you would usually find answeres to puzzles like this.

There are various tricks you can use to help you get at the answr quicker. PM me what you think the answer is and I'll confirm. Good luck.

EDIT - Skip the first row of snacks ending in 1431. If you can't see the whole snack bag, it's not a valid choice.
