Have you ever been so hungry, virtually anything starts to look appetizing? That's apparently the mindset of the internet at the moment as Twitter continues passing around a seemingly innocent photo of a chicken tender. If you look closer, though, the image isn't of a tendie in the slightest — it's a crystal. You know, like a full-on precious gemstone. Uncut Gems fans were the first to hop on the trend with the memes and retweets, helping turn the image into a viral post.

Some people think the crystal is enough to warrant an Uncut Gems 2 starring the Mayor of Flavortown, while others plan on eating trying to eat the crystal regardless. Should that be the case, hopefully they brought along plenty of sauce.
