What's the most memorable gift you've ever received on your birthday? As we all know, the best gifts are not necessarily the most expensive but the ones that reflect the thoughtfulness of the giver. Recently, a vlogger (Kinnie Marie Carpenter) posted about one such thoughtful birthday gift she received, and her video has taken Instagram by storm. The item featured is unexpected, and the digital creator herself seems initially unsure why her friend decided to give it to her. She starts the reel by revealing, "My friend gave me an open bag of chips as part of my birthday gift." That sounds rather unusual, right? Who wants an unsealed packet of chips?

It turns out that this packet was special. Its contents had been carefully selected and collected by the friend. The vlogger notes, "My favourite chips are the ones that are folded." She opens the bag in her hand and shows viewers what's inside it. The packet contains only folded chips! She explains, "I guess she bought a bunch of bags of kettle chips and then picked out all the folded chips out of those bags to throw them into this bag. So every chip that I eat out of here is folded." She is touched by her friend's heartfelt gesture. Watch the complete viral video here.
