TikTok is at it again. The short video format app is usually praised for its innovative food recipes, clothing ideas, hacks, life advice, dance challenges and much more, but the latest viral food recipe has most netizens fighting the urge to vomit.
A TikTok creator Jane brain @myjanebrain’s recreation of the humble burger has over 3.2 million views on the app, and over a million on Twitter.
The recipe is simply baffling, including her caption: “I’m never making burgers another way.”
Jane has a simmering pan after she creatively moulded the minced meat into a smiley face, she then adds eggs into the eyes and mouth of the mince. She seasons it with salt and then adds a packet of lightly salted Lay’s potato chips, spreads it around the meat, then adds lightly salted Lay’s on top.

The food content creator then pours in some light cream around the chips, places butter slices around the pan, and then adds parsley and seasoning salt.
Jane says she is trying to get the chips crispy again, as she adds some mixed cheese to the mix and covers the pan to cook.

Flipping the mince, Jane comments on the chips: “these actually look like mashed potatoes, you can’t tell me anything…Now that is a burger.”
People who watched the video didn’t feel the same way. Jane’s comment section has over 12 000 comments with many calling for intervention for her cooking even asking Gordon Ramsay to intervene.
Chefs reacted to the viral video, with many wondering why Jane didn’t just use actual potatoes with many never wanting to try her recipe.
Depsite people commenting that Jane brain ‘s food content may be satire and should not be taken seriously, her entire TikTok account is dedicated to her outrageous recipes.
