In the latest fast food trend to grace TikTok, customers are dipping their KitKats into ketchup, of all things – and it’s just as bizarre as you’d imagine.
Then a man went viral after hemixed up Guiness beer, along with a can of tomato soup, a combination that he revealed was surprisingly not all that bad.
Now, in the latest absurd trend, TikTok is mixing KitKat candy bars and tomato ketchup. The craze has become so big that KitKat itself has hopped on the bandwagon, posting a video on its social media account of employees testing out the combination.

We saw several different reactions from the employees as they chowed down on the unusual concoction. The consensus? Somewhat of a mixed bag. One of them could visibly be seen shaking her head, and giving the snack a hard pass, whereas two other employees proceeded to give a big thumbs up, clearly enjoying themselves.
“Does the government know about this?” he joked. “This feels illegal. This should be illegal. Why does that work?” he asked viewers.

People on TikTok weren’t so convinced however, writing: “How do people find these combinations? Was it like ‘oops, I spilled my ketchup on it & said F**k it, I’m gonna eat it anyway’?”

“Every part of him biting that chocolate is cursed,” another wrote, clearly grossed out.
However, it seems that a KitKat x Heniz Ketchup collab might actually be on the cards. In a social media post on instagram, the two joined forces to create anAI image of what a ketchup-flavored KitKat.
In the caption alongside the post, they teased “Even when it’s KitKat, It Has to be Heinz. Do we dare?” So who knows what the future holds for this popular candy brand.
There’s another fast food trend going viral on TikTok, but this one isn’t quite as controversial, packing together all of your favorite candies to form acreation influencers are calling ‘candy salad.’
