Foodies are just discovering a quick and easy way to open a bag of candy in seconds, and it always works.
The lesser-known life hack posted on TikTok left millions of people “mind-blown” and many wondering how the information isn’t “common knowledge.”
Anna Antonje from Germany shared the “right way” to open a bag of lollies and captured her surprise in a video.
Instead of tearing the package from the top or corner, there is a secret tab hidden on the back that can be torn down to open in one seamless motion.
‘Don’t tell me you KNEW that?!’ he captioned a viral TikTok video.

Instead of tearing the package from the top, there is a secret tab hidden on the back that can be torn down to open in one fluid motion.
Anna filmed herself opening a packet of Haribo sweets and was surprised she didn’t know about it before.
The short clip has since caught the attention of the masses and has been viewed a staggering 38.1 million times.
“At this point I don’t know how to live,” one wrote.
‘Are you telling me that my 26 years on this earth were LIES?’ said another.
‘Why don’t they say that on the package?!’ asked a third.
Someone else said: ‘I didn’t have the slightest idea. And now I am 61 years old.”
Although many admitted that they had known about the hack for “years.”
“Don’t tell me I was the only person who knew this,” one wrote.
‘How come people didn’t know this?’ Another reflected.
Last year, thousands of people were “blown away” after two friends revealed the purpose of the tabs on cooking oil bottles.

Zach and Steve from Brisbane shared a fascinating video demonstrating how to “properly” use the plastic tab instead of throwing it away.
After removing the tab, it was turned over and inserted into the bottle to perfectly pour the oil.
‘Don’t you hate it when you’re pouring oil and it makes a mess for everyone?’ Zach said in a TikTok video.
“Well, I do and trust me, try this trick and you’ll thank me later.”
