Your “back in the day” was after these had been around for a decade and they started doing the spoon thing to open them. They started out as little grandes.
Comment on Jeshus H Christ. Why do they put delicious biscuits in these surprise cans?

I fucking hate these things. Back in the day, you used a spoon and knew when it would pop. Who the fuck decided my biscuits should include a jump scare? Fuck whichever designer made me afraid of biscuits

Yeah I think technically you are still supposed to use the spoon. But sometimes it would pop before you tried the spoon.
I just use water now and run into the other room to hide.

I this was explicitly marketed as a no spoon thing, where you just peel the tab?

Maybe it depends on the brand.?
Or time frame?
Maybe they used to require a spoon but now are “spoon free”.
Or maybe the spoon free wrap is proprietary. So only the pilsbury ones are spoon free while the generic ones I buy, are not.

I think they reintroduced the ‘manual’ kind after a while, might have been limited or geographically bound. Not sure, but I expect they’re somewhat smart.

Wait… Does no one else give them a tppy tap? They’re not scary if you’re the one actively making them pop
