30 Times Things Doubled And People Couldn’t Look Away

Every now and then, unexpected surprises come our way, giving us a double dose of joy.

It could be stumbling upon a miniature orange nestled within the regular-sized one you’re already devouring. Alternatively, picture the delight of eating a chocolate chip cookie with miniature chocolate chip cookies on top of it. These things instantly come to mind, but such occurrences happen frequently enough to be validated by the members of the subreddit “2 Health Bars.”
