Viral food experiments featuring bizarre pairings tend to range from thought-provoking to downright distasteful. Recently, a video showing one combo that most people categorised as the latter went viral on Instagram. It shows a person asking a coconut water vendor to pour the drink into a packet of Lays (with the chips still inside). The reel was shared on the page @swadkediwane. It starts with the vlogger going up to the vendor and voicing his request. The seller complies and explains that it will cost him Rs 100.

He first cuts the Lays packet to open it. Later, he carefully cuts parts of the coconut from the top until he is able to pour the water from it. He later also adds the malai (coconut flesh) to the packet. In the end, he hands it over to the person waiting, who is seen tasting this unusual mixture of food and drink.
