There are many peculiarities around us that – unless they are specifically pointed out to us – go completely unnoticed.
When I learned that the logo on the box of Toblerone chocolates had a stealth bear on it, I brushed it off as random nonsense.
But then, lo-and-behold, when I started looking for this elusive bear, its silhouetted profile jumped right out at me and clawed its way indelibly into my brain.
You can see the bear prominently and expertly etched into Switzerland's iconic Matterhorn mountain illustration next to the word, "Toblerone."
Why a bear? It turns out that he Black Bear is synonymous with the country's capital city of Bern, where the delectable chocolates are produced.
When Redditor wu-ba-lu-ba asked, "What can't be unseen once you notice it?", readers pointed out a variety of things they never knew were there before, including hidden patterns on playing cards and something very intriguing about Wolverine's mask.
