Today, my mom bought me some expensive Japanese candy. I opened it, and saw that each chewy candy was wrapped in a thin, hard to peel off wrapper. After trying to get each wrapper off, I determined they were unopen-able and threw them away. I then read the box, saying the wrappers were edible. FML

Today, I had a hotdog. I thought the skin was a bit tough but ate it anyway. After reading the packaging later I found out that each hotdog has an individual plastic wrapper. I ate plastic. FML

Today, I came across some bubble wrap. Turned out it was a special type of bubble wrap that cannot be popped. FML

Today, I ate what was supposed to be a delicious mini powdered donut. The first one tasted funny, so I pulled out another one and realized that the powdered sugar was now in fact powdered hairy mold. Then I looked at the package and realized it was over a year and a half old. FML

Scammed

Today, I bought a box of Fruit Loops. When I got home, I noticed a free prize would be in the box. I sifted through the box, looking for the small toy. It wasn't in there. I don't know what is more sad, the fact that I got ripped off by a children's cereal or that I'm 21 and upset by it. FML

Today, I was celebrating my birthday when my friend gave me chocolate as a gift. I wasn't suspecting anything and ate about half of it before I noticed something strange. It turned out there were some kind of worms living in it and the chocolate was about a year after the expiration date. I got sick. FML

Today, my mother bought me some "biodegradable" tissues. Indeed, they melted… in my hand. FML

Today, my mom told me she’d never forgive me for eating her birthday candy. I ate it in my sleep. FML

Today, I learned the horrifying implications of my memory not being what it used to be when I bought a tasty-looking chocolate bar, only to realize upon taking a bite that I'd bought one before and not liked it one bit. FML

Today, I visited my grandma. She offered me some chips in ziploc bag. I thought they were sour cream and onion chips from the look. They tasted funny, but I didn't want to be rude and I kept eating. I looked closer after a while and noticed that what I thought were chives was actually mold. FML

Today, my boss brought us some small cakes from a recent trip to China. I opened mine and noticed a little foil packet wrapped with the cake, so I thought it was a powdered topping. I had a couple of bites before my coworker told me it was actually a desiccant to keep the cakes fresh. FML

I hope your mom popped you in the head for throwing away that expensive candy.

It's more than a dollar per box. I've seen little boxes for quite a bit, but they're a lot better if they come from Japan instead of being the import that you see in stores here. I personally love it, but I only eat a little at a time. Oh, and by the way, Botan Rice Candy can only really be bought around the Kyoto area. I've looked and looked, and it's only a regional thing. So if they really did come from Japan, good luck finding the same ones here. But otherwise, you could probably find them at a World Market or some place like that.

To the boneheads saying he deserved it: Wow really? Stop ******* flaming him; you would've probably done the same thing. I've never heard of wrapper that is edible and I'm sure you haven't either. And not many people read the back of the box either for extra "info" so gtfo.

Just because you never heard of it doesn't mean NOBODY has.

@#141 No, maybe not, but also the OP is probably lying about it being expensive. The only Japanese candy I have ever seen with an edible wrapper is Botan Rice Candy, which is sold at my local grocery store for a dollar a box. Sooo OP, you deserved it anyway and you're full of sh*t, or else you paid way too much for that candy and thus you still deserved it.
