Pillsbury cinnamon rolls tube
 

I am having trouble opening up the tube.. I pull the tab and it only tears a inch away. I can’t get the rest opened. Also having trouble with the biscuits too. I tried opening the ends with a can opener but that was a disaster . Any ideas?

Tear the seat here tab (the red piece) as much as possible. Then bang the middle of the package against the edge of your counter.

hit it on the counter cornner

I wonder if you are not pulling the entire thickness of the paper off, maybe just a very thin top layer? Because when you pull the red part it should pull off around the entire package. I just opened one of those this morning and had no trouble with it. Maybe try to use the edge of a knife and see if you can pry off a thicker strip of paper? (Once you get that top layer of paper off you can hit the tube on the edge of the counter to pop it open.)

If you read the package the red highlight says “START HERE” and next to that are picture instructions

Once the paper is off, push the edge of a spoon in one of the seams...

No, it's not the red thing. Lift up on the little silver tab and peal it around the tube. I've had the same problem when I first started using those things. Don't feel bad. The instructions are not clear. :)

Sounds like a man's problem: "Read the instructions first". :clap2: :boom:

Thank you for the tips. Will try the one where I need to pull the silver tab

Just smack them on counter edge and watch them fly ������? :faint:

Men don’t need instructions. Most have wives to tell us everything.

Has several people said, either bang The edge on the counter or use a large tablespoon and push against the line in the can tube to push it open. Also sometimes I have to use a sharp knife to peel away the tab area to be able to grab a piece of it to pull it up and off the can. You may have better luck using an off brand instead of Pillsbury also

Maybe the universe telling you to not eat them? :icon_wink:

Knife? How hungry are you?

If this is for real, I’ll show you how to do it at the cost of one cinnamon roll!

My dog opens mine….

Run over it with your golf cart at a fast pace and then back up on it. It should open nicely for then.

It’s a sign from god… you should not be eating that stuff. It’s not healthy.

I’ve had that trouble prior, I just pulled off what I could where they advise and then cut a slit with a knife. Once it pops it’s easier to get it started from that slit.

Enjoy! They are certainly making you work for your roll this time!

Feeling a little bloated after those holiday parties ?

The universe has spoken!

Go out for breakfast.

Hit the tube against the edge of your counter top. (The old fashioned way!)
 

Rap it against the edge of your counter top.

Really
 

Wow 2 pages of how to open a tube of biscuits. We really aren't in Kansas anymore.

That was the first thing that came to my mind!!

🤣🤣🤣👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Reading the directions usually helps

:1rotfl: :icon_wink: :clap2:

Just stab it with a sharp knife. It'll open.
You'll need to sign a waiver from me in case you accidently stab yourself...

I would be hesitant to bang anything on the edge of the counter, especially if it is a laminate counter. You could chip the counter edge. Use the edge of a concrete sidewalk instead.

You can borrow my chain saw.

Next question will be “How to open coin roll”

With cardboard???

I peel the label off, and then I whack it really hard on the corner of the counter. The container should burst open enough to enable you to get to the contents. Good luck!

Pillsbury introduced this product in 1958, 64 years ago now it’s a monumental problem?

That will do it!

How many Pillsbury Doughboys have you smashed against a plastic countertop edge?

Try hitting on the counter and if that doesn't work, but fresh from the bakery.
