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 visited my grandma. She offered me some chips in a Ziploc bag. I thought they were sour cream and onion chips from the look of them. 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, 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, 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

WOW, ok... 1st: those "really expensive Japanese candies" are NOT AT ALL expensive... you can get them at ANY asian market and even, get ready for it.... WALMART. It's .97 a box. 2nd: the FRONT OF THE BOX specifically says tht you CAN EAT THE PAPER WRAPPER... IN BOLD LETTERS... IN ENGLISH! 3rd: It's called PAPER RICE CANDY.... it has the name PAPER in it.... LASTLY: YOU'RE A MORON.

I love rice candies. XD Although, when I first had some, and noticed that the paper it was wrapped in wouldn't come off, I figured that it must be on purpose and put a small piece of it in my mouth. #83 - Those candies in American grocery stores sell for three to four dollars per box. Where I live, anyway.

Yum, I love white rabbits. YDI for being an idiot, it says in big freaking letters on the packet that it's edible.

Expensive is bullshit! We get those for a dollar or two at the local grocery store. I love rice candies.
