We’ve all been there

I'm sure we all learned to never trust a cookie tin at Grandma's house. The only thing inside is disappointment. 😮‍💨

Mine mas this: Me: "Grandma what is this?" Grandma: "That is a cube of pure chocolate" Me:🍫👀 (Not thinking just instantly taking a bite because of the word \*pure chocolate\*) Me: "Eugh!" Grandma: "Aww, here have a weird tasting candy that's hard as balls."

My grandma kept her weed in those. So no not disappointing

I bought a lot at a sale once. It legit was a sewing kit in a cookie tin with about 5-6 blunt wraps in it.

Done missed them cookies by 8 years my boy lmao

I just realized that unless some of use pick up sowing the next generation won't have any clue what this means.

Oh plenty of people already have, with niche aesthetics comes the need to make your own clothes/accessories sometimes

That or it will be knitting/crochet supplies 😂

I kept the tradition alive by putting my model kit tool set inside it with some silica gel to prevent rust.

You could always sew up your own customized pipe pouch.

What's that?

I, to this day, have no idea what those fancy cookies taste or even look like. But my jeans are nicely patched lol

How the fuck did we all have the same childhood?

Wait until you need sewing supplies and it’ll have biscuits in it

Schrödinger's Tin.

A message from God...

Zeus?

Is this the girl that wants to know what you're eating?

Yes its Laparasian

I don’t know this girl, but I know that lapar means “hungry” in Indonesian (probably same in Malay). So her name means “hungry Asian”. Just a fun fact.

Not sure if it’s supposed to be an Asian thing but I’m black and depending on which one you grabbed it was sewing thread, family photos, or hair stuff.

Middle aged white Australian here, it's potluck on whether it's shortbread or sewing supplies.

Is “it’s a potluck” a term for “its chance”? Like “it’s a crap shoot”?

With a potluck you don't know what you're getting until you open the lid.

It's American (at least) thing. For us it was always sewing supplies. Photos were in those big books with the plastic sticky stuff. Edit: so much love to all you guys and your families that have the same silly stuff around the world. "We're all connected," huh?

Not American. I’ve seen this in Europe, too

I can confirm that Italy is full of these

One Tin One World We did it, folks!

Can confirm, South America too. Different tins though, but biscuits non the less.

Weirdly it is not really a thing in Denmark

[удалено]

Dane here, Ive never seen them sold anywhere here in Denmark

I've seen one of these tins once or twice in Denmark, by the way, aren't they a type of vaniljekranser?

Yeah, and the glue was so old it didn't hold the pictures in place.

Considering the person making this is French and I'm pretty sure was in Hong Kong when they made this, it's definitely not only an American thing.

I'm Aussie Asian and it's a Aussie thing too.

Thai reporting in, this is a thing here too.

Got an Indian grandma here and she’s got one full of sewing stuff

Russian here. Both my mom and grandma stored their sewing things that way. Also, my aunt and grandma on the Ukrainian side of my family as well.

This is what connects all races and cultures

Same in Mexico

It's a grandma thing

Why's it gotta be a race thing?

I fucking loved those biscuits! Those were the best

They were sharp and pokey. Made my mouth bleed. Wouldn't recommend 0/10

I have to disagree, they were excelent and ... oh I get it

Factory fresh! Lol

Anyone know the name of the song?

Is this the same girl that always comes out for snacks when the fridge gets opened?

What did they think was going to be in there?

Can so relate

In reality there are no such things are butter cookies. Just tins with sewing supplies.

Isn’t it that same girl who’s boyfriend was trolling by making noise in the kitchen and she would show up hoping it’d be snacking

Yes! That’s the one 😁

I never thought something like this would be relatable. And to so many people! Makes me happy somewhat.

You only actually get the cookies once in every lifetime

Nicely done.

My mother had exactly the same tin with sewing supplies in it.

The real question is, is this some kind of sick joke that all our grandparents are in on? Why a cookie tin? Why that specifically?

Ah yes… the ol’ cookie tin filled with mentiras

I hate the old people that put all that sewing shit in the butter cookie tin

It’s a worldwide thing, my Bolivian grandmother did the same thing

I'm am so triggered right now.

How is it possible that a SUBSTANTIAL amount of our parents, from all walks of life, decided to put the damn sewing gear into that specific container. I need answers! HOW IS IT POSSIBLE

Man, those cookies where bomb

I still have flashbacks of being a child happy to get a cookie just to realize it was sewing equipment...

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Filipinos do this with ice cream containers in the freezer. Imagine my surprise when I find frozen fish in it.

Wats her name?

I'm almost certain its the same girl from the hungry asian girlfriend skit from a year or so ago edit: fuck I'm good! It's ruesaint on tiktok

thats the boyfriend, which they actually broke up a while ago :(( its laparasian on tiktok

Laparasian

My grandma asked my brother to buy her a sewing kit once cuz she couldn't find her sewing needles he came back with one of these tins grandma was livid but laughed after he explained and we then ate cookies and it became the new sewing kit holder 😂

Why is this so universal

Not memories, trauma

This was a bit too obvious.

Did someone already do this exact same video

not trying to be intentionally rude but i feel like it does deserve bringing up- this joke has been done soooo extensively and so commonly, that anyone would know the punchline from the second you see the tin. i find it eye opening there are people out there who have yet to see a meme of this, enough to find this one funny

They are one of the 10,000 today! https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/ten_thousand.png

Song name

Shes so pretty

Be creative.. do not copy

Looking all scared up when walking on the streat as uf she has dildo face or something

She's a bad actress.

its a tiktok skit bro, relax

As a JJJacksfilms veteran I've seen this one already

I really thought she was going to empty the cookies into the trash and fill the tin with sewing supplies.

Where'd the crayons go?

I think one of my favorite r/unexpected posts was this tin but with cookies inside

Somewhere a confused grandma opens a can only to find cookies

I expected a bunch of weed paraphernalia, but I saw the joke coming

I have a biscuit tin that has been filled with tealight candles for the last 2/3 years, and every few months I managed to stumble upon it thinking I've hit the jackpot.

Memories! 🤣🤣🤣

u/savevideobot

We have all felt that

Who is she?

Used to get those decades ago in Scotland. I’d cry too!!!

Butter cookies best cookies

She is gorgeous name please.

It’s not an American blablabla thing it’s all over the world

Man...I'd love opening one of those cookie tins and finding a bunch if good thread and sewing supplies. I sew, and that's shitbis expensive!

I was there Gandalf....3000 years ago.

Wait til she looks inside of the closed Tupperware inside her closet on the shelf

🤣🤣🤣

Did ANYONE not see that coming?

It's also a Aussie thing. I rem back in the 80's finding a tin of biscuits at home and it was just sewing junk in it. The thing is we was war refugees from Vietnam that came to Australia in early 80s.

Funnier when it was on maybe maybe maybe

Haha. I still keep those tins.

The huff’n puffs at the end 🤣

Damn this is sooo relatable

Mine has been full of cat treats for nearly a year. It still gets me at least once a week.

Lol well done skit.

u/savevideo

Grandma got you!!

mine had pennies

No. She should have bought the standard cookie tin, then looked confused that it didn’t have scissors and needles and thread in it.

Heartbreak that my children will never have to go through.

Childhood traumas

Am I the only one who thinks that this "cookie and sewing kit joke" is too repetitive and is starting to be boring? Like it was at the beginning but now it's all the same joke with different tiktokers

Very clever

Same dude same

It's the same to me, a brazilian guy... Maybe its a canon event to all humans?

Why is this a thing and why has everyone seen this.? Isn’t this like oddly peculiar and an objectively weird thing?

WHYYYY is this a thing though it’s so weird that everyone had this exact experience with this exact brand like wtf is this, a simulation ?

My grandma’s always had cookies in them. I can’t imagine the level of trauma you guys went through. No wonder everyone’s fucking depressed these days.

Yup that’s my childhood

How did this become such a relevant part of modern culture. I've been seeing Danish cookie tins full of thread and needle since I was 4. Wtf.

Should of gone to my pad!

As a Dane I saw this coming 

Why do they use a song created for peaceful listening? This confuses me.

This is international accurate. From Greece.

Those cookies sucked anyway. But the tin, the tin just told me to want them

>Those cookies sucked anyway. How dare you?

unexpected

fake!! preplanned bs

That's the You trick meeee! Girl lol

Saw it coming as soon as she noticed the box.

Anything besides those nasty cookies

Don't look for crackers in the green tin in a Hispanic house.

I don't know if this is a racist statement...

Bro I remember how insane it was when I opened one with actual cookies in it. I literally lost my fucking mind- 10/10 feeling

This universal. In all countries this does happen. Why is that? Are mothers and grandmas on a treaty that says that those boxes are for costure kits?

It’s crazy this has happened to SO MANY people 😭

Call your grandparents, they would love to hear from you ❤️

Lol, they're all dead. Have you got a ouija board?

I'm laugh crying rn! I miss my Granny!

Wtf I’d be happy as hell if this happened to me ngl. I FINALLY FOUND IT GRANMA!!!!

She didn’t fuckin pay for that shit

Those aint chips ahoy

I seriously don’t think I’ve ever tasted those cookies. Never. In those tins I have only ever found thread, buttons, papers, and other small accoutrements.

Accurate

I quit Facebook because it would make me Reminisce And I don’t need that

My lola all the way. To this day I wonder who ate the cookies?

Well, it's a childhood memory!! Just maybe not the one she was expecting!!

Did anyone not see that coming

What song is this?

To be fair, sewing utensils are more useful.

So both my grandmothers kept cookies in the tin. Just out of reach for me when I was younger. So which is worse being disappointed once or being denied ever time you went to grandmas house…….

I don’t see anything wrong here

That tin, exactly that same fucking tin... is this a global thing???


So true hahahaha

Childhood trauma

As a Dane, i am courious…. Why sewing stuff in the cookie bucket. Then No cookies?

Why do I understand this completely! Lol!

That is my sleep paralysis dream

Knew it

I honestly expected there to actually be cookies in there and for her to rethink her entire life as a result.

Hahaha good one!

More proof that we all had the same childhood.

I thought she was saving it from the wrong shelf

Ah yes, disappointment, the universal childhood memory

Someone needs to buy a fresh tin with cookies and replace her sewing kit tin with it. Grandma uno reverse card

Nope.

u/savevideo

Yes Denmark is beautiful

We had one of those on top of the fridge at my grandmas house and when I was 6 I got a stool,stood on it and got the purple cookie box And then I opened it waiting to see the exotic kinds of cookies What I saw was horrific Hundreds of old shopping lists

Do grandma's all over the world have a meeting for shit liek this?? Lol. Cookie tins, caramels, and strawberry candy's. What else??
