She shared a clip on Instagram where she unpacked her bag in an effort to reveal everything that she had to keep stock of as a mom, with some unexpected finds.

"This bag just got out of the car after a road trip with three kids," she said. "I have no idea what's in here."

Some of them were a lot more mundane, like chargers, a room key, some make-up items, even a Once Upon a Farm monogrammed pen.

However, there were quite a few wacky entries as well, most of which involved food, such as a pair of open packets of Mentos and an unwrapped chocolate bar, which she proceeded to eat.

At one point, she even found a handful of stray M&Ms and couldn't even uncover the package it was in, and after fishing out a plastic fork, began eating them in between laughs.

Jennifer also dug out a bra, drugstore reading glasses, a pencil sharpener, liquid IV, and playing cards, among a variety of other things.
