And Challenger’s followers were in for a treat when she demonstrated how to properly eat a Kit Kat in the unlikely event you’re served one in a formal dinning setting.
The tongue-in-cheek TikTok, which has amassed almost four million views, saw the 38-year-old sitting at a dinner table with a snack-sized Kit Kat on a white plate in front of her.
She begins: “I'm going to show you the formal British way to eat a Kit Kat.
“Now it's highly, highly, highly unlikely that you were to be served a Kit Kat in a formal British dining setting. But if you were, how would one eat it?"
Before showing her Kit Kat eating technique, Lucy revealed the bar was invented in 1935 in York and was originally named Roundtree's Chocolate Crisp.

Challenger then started elegantly unwrapping the bar, leaving the foil and sleeve on her plate while giving a running commentary.
She continued: “I unwrap the Kit Kat with my fingers around removed the paper layer and place it onto the plate.
“I simply snap the Kit Kat in two, lift one section of the Kit Kat, placing the other section down on the plate, then place it into my mouth in a small neat delicate bite to eat.
“One continues to eat the Kit Kat until the Kit Kat is fully consumed.”

“Why did I genuinely watch this whole thing like I dont know how to eat a kitkat,” a commenter added.
Meanwhile, other followers shared their own way to eat the confectionery, with one sharing: “Bite both sides and drink tea through it so it melts and then eat it.”
“I bite the chocolate off around the wafer… then eat the wafer on its own,” another wrote.
