A clever Haribo packet opening trick is blowing minds on TikTok, as discovered by Haribo lovers looking to keep their sweet treats fresh post-opening. The viral tip entails tearing the packet vertically, using the designated tab for display hanging. By gently tearing down from top to bottom while keeping the end attached, users can then seal the packet once they’ve enjoyed some sweets. To reseal, just slide the torn strip back through the hole at the top and pull it taut. This simple hack prevents spillage worries, as reported by the Daily Record.
Social media users are captivated by this trick, especially those who struggle to finish a bag in one go. Confessions have emerged from users who devour a full pack in minutes, questioning the need to save any. The ‘hack’ has had successful trials with various Haribo sweets like Golden Bears, Cola Bottles, and Milkshakes. However, attempts with other snacks fail due to different packaging designs, requiring alternative securing methods.
Previously, Haribo stirred debate regarding their ‘egg’ sweets, initially mistaken as UFOs. The German sweet manufacturer clarified the soft treats were indeed meant to resemble fried eggs. TikTok videos have showcased users trying out the unique packet-sealing method with success, specifically attributed to the Haribo packet design. Unlike other packs, Haribo’s distinct tab and tearable strip facilitate an efficient resealing process, ensuring sweet treats remain fresh till the last bite.
