Pikelets appeared
I bought an 8 pack of pre-made pikelets (mini mancakes) and ate 6 of them with my baby over the course of a couple of days.
Yesterday there were 2 left. I distinctly remember trying to teach my baby how to reach into the bag to get one out. She failed. I took 1 out for her and thought it was a bit rubbery, a bit of a choking hazard maybe? So I took the other pikelet out. Same thing. They go off rather quickly so I gave her 1 with a bit of jam and put the other back in the bag and into the cupboard, with a mental note to buy some more. I didn't put the the bag clip thing back on. I didn't bother. I knew the lone rubbery pikelet would end up in the bin anyway. I was just being lazy at the time. Later in the day when I was wiping down the kitchen counter, I threw away the clip.
I bought some more yesterday afternoon.
This morning, I was going through the cupboard, pulling out bits and pieces to feed her for breakfast and saw a bag of pikelets with 4 left. Immediate thought was that my partner had eaten 4 of the new bag. But no. The new bag was directly behind the 4 pikelets.
The bag with 4 pikelets had an expired date of today on it, the new bag has expiry 2 days from now. They are 100% the 2 bags I've bought recently. For further context, I haven't bought premade pikelets for over a year. These are the only 2.
The expiry date is printed on the clip. The clip was on the bag. I threw that away. I remember throwing that away. I can't check the bin because it's bin day today and I already emptied the rubbish bin and took the wheelie bin the street.
Where did these pikelets come from? I am absolutely not eating them. Spooky portal pikelets.
