The one thing that makes you feel dumber than making a stupid mistake is when you make that mistake for a seriously long time. In this case, this person found some "snacks" they liked, and since the packaging wasn't obvious, they bought it again and again. A lot of people realize obvious things too late, but that doesn't make it much less embarrassing.

    Text - r/tifu - Posted by u/SNIHON 4 days ago TIFU by eating cat food for 2 months! This happened several years ago when I first moved to Japan. My Japanese skills were terrible, so I used google translate a lot while shopping. Anyway, I was looking for a quick snack and I saw a small bag that looked like rice crackers. It had a picture of cheese and fish on it so I thought it was just a unique Japanese flavor. I used picture translate and it said something like "A healthy cheese". Nothing about

    Text - a few days later and bought two more packs; I ate one or two packs a week. Then one day my Japanese friend came over to watch a movie and I offered her a snack. She looked at the package and said "Do you have a cat?" I said I didn't. She began to explain that my favorite snack was meant for cats. I was surprised, I told her that they were so delicious. She began laughing so hard, but she tried them and agreed that they tasted pretty good but told me I could get sick if I kept eating them.

    Text - Liviesmom 4.7k points · 4 days ago My dad did something similar, but it was with dog treats. In the large bags of dog food we bough there would sometimes be free samples and one time there was a small pack of pupperoni sticks. I was the one that found it and put it on counter; shortly after I noticed it was open and he was telling me how he tried the new slim Jim's and they weren't very good. I almost died laughing. That happened at least 15 years ago and we still laugh about it.

    Text - The-Lady-Fuzzberta 1.5k points · 4 days ago Before I read your post I thought maybe you were eating tinned cat food! Lol. That picture is definitely deceptive though, it looks a lot like a normal people snack. Don't feel bad though, my grandpa ate dog treats for a solid week because they looked like those Combos snacks and he got confused.
