Would you eat a sad chocolate? Check out other faces in unusual places

Some time ago someone posted a picture of a chocolate with marks caused by the packaging that resemble a sad face. The photo caption was "my candy bar doesn't want me to eat it" in a free translation.

The image has been replicated on many sites, and if you don't know, seeing faces or shapes in ordinary objects is called pareidolia, which is nothing more than a fairly common phenomenon that reflects a psychological view of a random stimulus. This "vision" is actually a standardized composition made by our nervous system. In such cases, we tend to see familiar forms in usual places.

The most common is recognizing human faces and silhouettes, but it is normal to see other patterns as well, such as animals, vector shapes, objects, and the like - just remember when you were a child and spent hours looking for drawings in clouds.
