You've been eating Toblerone wrong your entire life
All that chocolate-related suffering has been for nothing
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Everyone loves a good Toblerone – whether it’s the mini one you bought yourself from Tesco; the gift you got from your cousin who has no idea who you are; or the £75 version that is the size of a small child.
What nobody loves is trying to break off the little pieces, stressing out, and getting chocolate all over your hands.
If you haven’t given up and used your teeth to bite bits off instead, you’re a liar.
So, is the number one triangular chocolate snack badly designed? Nope – you’ve just been doing it all wrong.
Toblerones are designed that way for a reason.
Take a look at the gif below.
Don’t try to tug the pieces off, try to break them off by pushing the top of the triangle down.
Genius.
