This appeared in my house today. No idea what it is, or where it came from!
DH thinks it's a condom wrapper. I have no idea? Doesn't look like that to me, it's small, more papery than made of foil..
Any ideas??

Definitely no date stamp. And it's not a thick wrapper it's plasticy/rustly feeling.. photo shows a plastic bag kind of lining on the inside

I thought condom wrapper until your recent photo update. Strange!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 19/08/2019 18:47

It looks like source for noodles

Withnailandaye · 19/08/2019 18:47

I'd say noodle flavour sachet too.
or seeds but they'd have names of the seeds on. Unless it was really old and had been rubbed off.
It definitely doesn't smell like anything?

naneee · 19/08/2019 18:49

Definitely has no smell at all which is annoying cos that could solve the mystery..I have no idea what it is, but I thought flavour sachet as well, definitely don't think condom wrapper

I’d say noodle seasoning. But being a food stuff surely that would have a best before date on it

FatimaLovesBread · 19/08/2019 18:50

That looks like what dissolvable cocodamol comes in

Give us a laugh? It looks old - is the sofa second hand?

ilovewelshrarebit123 · 19/08/2019 18:59

It's the seasoning thing from noodles or pot noodle.

modernmystery · 19/08/2019 19:02

Instant noodle flavouring sachet.

onyourway · 19/08/2019 19:03

Do you have teenagers? That could narrow it down to Pot Noodle OR condom, depending on their appetites 😀

Chunkers · 19/08/2019 19:04

Have you had any overnight visitors on the sofa? How old are your DC’s (if you have any).

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 19/08/2019 19:04

Does pot noodle come with a sachet? It’s been many years since I had one.

BogglesGoggles · 19/08/2019 19:05

Definitely not a condom wrapper (not from this century at any rate).

legalseagull · 19/08/2019 19:06

Not a condom wrapper they all have the safety stamp on and an expiry date too

AcrossthePond55 · 19/08/2019 19:07

Could have been down the sofa long enough for the flavour smell to disappear. Can you shine a bright light (like a pen light) in it and see if there's any kind of 'residue' that looks like spices?

Jammiebammie · 19/08/2019 19:09

Can’t see your second pic, but some vitamins/electrolyte/amino acid powders can come in packets like that, you can even buy plain packets like that to fill yourself so could literally be anything.

Fuckwheresitgone · 19/08/2019 19:10

Looks like a sugar wrapper which has gone through the washing machine! I always thought they were paper but there is a thin plastic coating inside.

Horehound · 19/08/2019 19:12

Tea bag wrapper from a hotel stay maybe?

WaxOnFeckOff · 19/08/2019 19:14

I think it's a glasses cleaner or screen cleaner packet.

brookelopez · 19/08/2019 19:14

noodle seasoning packet.

aintnutinchanged · 19/08/2019 19:15

Not really relevant but looks like we have the same sofa 😂
