TikTok: lizzo \/ yayayayummyForget pineapple on pizza: TikTok has come up with another totally over-the-top food combination that has users scrambling to see if it\u2019s as good (or disgusting) as people say. In the age-old debate of whether or not mayonnaise goes with french fries or if it\u2019s acceptable to put cheese on apple pie, another contender has entered the ring \u2014 and it\u2019s apparently pretty tasty. TikTok is home to a slew of challenges and trends, and a new one is quickly vying to take the throne of weirdest things we\u2019ve ever seen on the viral video app: Mustard on watermelon. It\u2019s not unusual to see watermelon (or any other seasonal summer fruit, for that matter) paired with Tajin or chili sauce, but mustard is an entirely different beast \u2014 one that\u2019s got the entire internet in an uproar lately. Summer is here, and with it come all sorts of signature summertime foods like corn dogs, home-grilled hamburgers, and watermelon\u2026 but it seems like TikTok has decided to combine all these elements in a seriously odd way. The app\u2019s latest obsession is putting French\u2019s yellow mustard on pieces of watermelon, and apparently it\u2019s actually good \u2014 but don\u2019t take our word for it. Grammy Award-winning music artist Lizzo was hilariously confused as to why the two actually worked well together after taking notes from TikTok star \u201cyayayayummy\u2019s\u201d viral video promoting the melon\/mustard pair. It\u2019s understandable that one would be a tad skeptical of this combo, and YouTuber-slash-news reporter Phillip DeFranco was also unsure if it was worth the hype. However, after trying it out himself, he was \u201cmad\u201d that it was actually good! View this post on Instagram So\u2026 is it worth the hype? Every person\u2019s taste buds are different, and what someone thinks is a rave-worthy food combo might not be everyone\u2019s cup of tea. But sometimes, adding a little spice or savory sauce to a sweet fruit could add a certain \u201cJe ne sais quoi\u201d that you just can\u2019t live without.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What the heck is TikTok\u2019s mustard &#038; watermelon craze?
