TAYLOR KNIGHT:

OH, HONEY. ANOTHER TIK TOK TREND RISKING YOUR HEALTH – BUT GETTING A LOT OF VIEWS.

TIK TOK INFLUENCERS, PUT HONEY IN A WATER BOTTLE AND FREEZE IT.

ONCE IT’S READY, THEY TAKE A BITE OF THE GOOEY SUBSTANCE AND FIND IT REFRESHING. 

UNTIL SOME GET ILL WITH – DIARRHEA, STOMACH ACHES, AND TOOTHACHES. 

ONE TWITTER USER POSTED HOW THE FROZEN TREND MAKES THEIR TEETH HURT. 

THE TREND PICKED UP PRETTY FAST AFTER THE ORIGINAL TIK TOK VIDEO POSTED ON JULY 9TH BY INFLUENCER DAVE RAMIREZ. 

HE SAYS HE ORIGINALLY DID THE CHALLENGE WITH NO EXPECTATION OF IT GOING VIRAL. 

HE’S SEEN OTHER YOUTUBERS DO ASMR CHALLENGES WITH HONEY – THAT ARE KNOWN FOR THE SENSORY SENSATIONS WANTED TO GIVE IT A TRY HIMSELF.

EASY SINCE HONEY IS FOUND IN MANY PANTRIES.

BUT NOW THE CHALLENGE IS EVOLVING WITH INFLUENCERS USING DIFFERENT TYPES OF CORN SYRUP AND CANDY.  

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME A TRENDY FOOD HACK HAS LEAD TO SOME HEALTH CONCERNS REMEMBER THE CINNAMON CHALLENGE, THE MENTOS DIET COKE CHALLENGE, OR HOW ABOUT THE SOY SAUCE CHALLENGE SENDING A VIRGINIA TEEN INTO A COMA. 

NOT EVERYONE IS SOLD ON THE TREND, THIS TWITTER USER SAYS THE TREND CONFUSES ME. 

NOWADAYS, IT SEEMS PEOPLE WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET VIEWS AND LIKES.
