A chocolate fan has blown people's minds after revealing the correct way to eat the pyramidal Swiss chocolate bar after people have spent years trying to break the pieces apart with their teeth
It seems connoisseurs of chocolate have been savouring their Toblerone bars incorrectly - but fear not, for there's an approved method to munching on the pyramid-shaped Swiss delight. The prominent chocolate brand, adorned with vibrant red and yellow branding, has sweetened the world since 1908, and remains a global favourite. Many indulge in the treat during special moments such as Christmas or snag one from Duty Free while jet-setting.
Even after decades of relishing in this chocolate luxury, it appears a great number of us are still unaware of the right technique to detach the delectable segments. Chances are you've been wrenching the pieces outwards or gnawing at the bar, hoping for a break.
‌
Given the firmness of the segments, this can require quite a bit of strength. Yet, there's an effortless method that makes separating them a piece of cake.
‌
A culinary enthusiast has uncovered the optimal strategy to claim a segment. Sharing his revelation on social media, the father gave his audience a detailed peek at a Toblerone bar and disclosed: "So apparently this is how you're supposed to break your Toblerone."
The demonstration showed him effortlessly snapping off a single piece by pinching two triangle tips together with his thumb and forefinger. Instead of yanking the pieces apart, the trick is to press them inward. In a blink, you're blessed with your chocolate chunk.
The comments section brimmed with astonishment, including one bewildered person who exclaimed: "There's no way I'm only finding this out now I usually put my whole mouth around it and everything."
Another concurred and remarked: "I just shove it in my mouth and risk the roof of my mouth being scraped." An additional person contributed: "The amount of times I nearly broke my teeth and this was how you do it."
Meanwhile, another individual confessed: "I feel so dumb for doing it the hard way all my life." Yet, some were baffled that this wasn't common sense.
‌
"How does nobody know this? ," one questioned. While another asserted: "I've always pushed them like this and thought it was common knowledge."
A third chimed in with agreement: "I thought this was common knowledge." Nonetheless, when the widely followed Chef Koudy revealed the trick on his TikTok, many admitted they'd rather stick to their laborious methods.
"Second is better because you're not touching the piece next to it," one user opined. Another penned: "Second one is better, at least he did not touch the other bar with his fingers."
