Earlier this month, foodies went crazy after discovering a quick and easy way to open a bag of lollipops in seconds – and it works every time.
The lesser-known life hack posted to TikTok left millions of people “stunned,” with many wondering how the insight isn’t “common knowledge.”
Anna Antonje, from Germany, shared the ‘correct way’ to open a lollipop bag and summed up her shock in a video.
Instead of tearing the package from the top or corner, there is instead a secret tab hidden on the back that can be ripped down to open in one seamless motion.
“Don’t tell me you KNEW that?!” she captioned a viral TikTok video.
