A grandmother who still uses a land-line phone received a sweet gift for Christmas this year that was designed to help her embrace technology - or not.

Why is this video of a grandmother opening an iPhone box going viral?

Because she's more excited about the present when she realizes it's not real.

When she first sees the box, the grandmother says, "The problem is that I really am not equipped to handle this."

The grandmother opens the box and finds what looks to be a phone.

A relative says, "I want you to put it in your mouth."

She replies, "I beg your pardon?"

"I want you to take a bite out of your phone," the relative says.

Then she figures it out.

She was actually given a chocolate phone as a prank by her grandchildren. She couldn't express enough how relieved she was it wasn't a real phone.

The family says technology never tasted so good.

The same grandmother was captured in a different technology-themed prank last year, when she was made to unwrap a gaming system that turned out to be for someone else. Her response when she found out that was a prank: "Thank God."
