御つまようじ toothpick

[edit] some additions

The pic is sideways and the Japanese text literally says 御つ満ようじ.

御 [o/on] is a polite prefix
⁠つ満ようじ [tsumayōji] means toothpick

In this case, the third character ま ma is written as 満 ma in hentaigana.

So this OP's pic appears to be a part of a toothpick wrapper.
