I fucking hate these things. Back in the day, you used a spoon and knew when it would pop. Who the fuck decided my biscuits should include a jump scare? Fuck whichever designer made me afraid of biscuits.
Your "back in the day" was after these had been around for a decade and they started doing the spoon thing to open them. They started out as little grandes.
Yeah I think technically you are still supposed to use the spoon. But sometimes it would pop before you tried the spoon.
I just use water now and run into the other room to hide.
Wait... Does no one else give them a tppy tap? They're not scary if you're the one actively making them pop
This was explicitly marketed as a no spoon thing, where you just peel the tab(?). It pops when it pops.
e: isn’t that the yellow string to the right in your picture?
Maybe it depends on the brand.?
Or time frame?
Maybe they used to require a spoon but now are "spoon free".
Or maybe the spoon free wrap is proprietary. So only the pilsbury ones are spoon free while the generic ones I buy, are not.
?
Edit- okay so I have a can in my fridge. Its aldi brand.
Says to use spoon.
I think they reintroduced the ‘manual’ kind after a while, might have been limited or geographically bound. Not sure, but I expect they’re somewhat smart.
My experience is from the 90s-2000s. I haven’t used them in a while.
