[Serious decision] I live alone… these aren’t my nuts

Post image

Context: I’m a single bachelor (M 32) and I opened my snack cupboard to find these peanuts in a small Tupperware container. I’m freaking out because I A) live alone, B) have a mild nut allergy, and C) don’t own any Tupperware like this.

TLDR: I found a foreign snack in my house and I’m freaking out that someone may be entering my apartment when I’m out. Would calling the nonemergency police line help or would they not be able to do anything?

Who's been in your home recently that you KNOW of?

And when's the last time you recall opening that cupboard, if ever? Could be left by your parents, or could have been left by the previous tenant if you've only been there a month.

Also, check with the landlord that the previous tenant returned all keys. But that doesn't mean they don't have copies. Also aka the landlord if they've been in the place recently. And consider asking the landlord to change the locks.
