We're trying to figure out the most disrespectful way to eat a Kit Kat.
By @daniish · Hot Takes
My group chat is in a full-blown argument over this. We're not talking about just breaking off a piece and eating it wrong, we're talking about a method so heinous it would make a stranger on the bus visibly uncomfortable.
The full story
This all started because my buddy watched his girlfriend take a huge bite out of the middle of a whole four-finger Kit Kat, like it was a candy bar. No snap, no sharing, just pure chaos. It sent our group chat into a spiral. Now we're in a cold war of bad ideas. The original sin of just biting it is level 1. I suggested you could suck all the chocolate off each finger first, leaving the naked wafer, and then eat that. Someone else said you need to use a knife and fork, but cut it into weird, uneven, non-finger-shaped pieces and eat them out of order. The nuclear option someone just dropped is this: you hold it up to your mouth like a harmonica and try to bite all four fingers at once, inevitably getting chocolate all over your face. I think this is it. This is the worst way. My girlfriend thinks we're all psychopaths and need to find a real hobby. But I think we're on the verge of a scientific breakthrough here.

What people are saying
@sageish — The harmonica is chaotic evil. I absolutely agree this is the winner.
@zanelol — The knife and fork is the most disrespectful. It implies a level of premeditated psychopathy that a simple bite doesn't.
@karaok2 — Your girlfriend is right, but also this is the kind of stupid argument that makes group chats great.
@hadtosay — lmfao
@zanemaybe — I think sucking the chocolate off is way worse than the harmonica thing. The leftover wet wafer is just a crime against humanity.
