Viral trends come and go on the internet, with some sticking around for longer than others.
A lot of them remain in the limelight because of how outlandish they are, but this particular trend is possibility the most disgusting one out there.
I mean, Dr Depper and pickles are nice enough on their own, but if you put them together? Well, that's a different story.

A viral uploaded to TikTok on 1 May by Mississippi Memaw, who goes by the handle of @mississippimemaw on the popular video platform, documents the trend in action.
In the video, she ordered a pickle-filled Dr Pepper at the drive-through of her local Sonic takeaway.
"Do y’all like pickles? Do y’all like Dr Pepper? Well, come on with Memaw, cause Memaw’s fitting to show you something," the TikToker began the video.

A restaurant worker takes out the questionable drink to Memaw, with the pickles being added as an extra charge.
The worker explained how she had to charge the customization by marking it down as cherries. No surprise there, considering pickles are not meant to be in a Dr Pepper!
For the privilege of having some pickles mixed in, the TikToker had to pay $3.62.

Memaw then shows off the floating pickles slices in her drink, and to say it doesn't look appetising is an understatement.
Well, I mean, whatever floats your boat.
"Alright I done put my straw in my cup, but let’s see what it looks like," Memaw said.
She added: "Don’t knock it till you try it. If you like pickles and you like Dr Pepper, and you’re probably like ‘Ew gross, I would never ever drink that,’ but there’s a lot of people that do drink this."

Stirring the pickles further into her drink, Memaw went on: "Did you hear her, the way she took my order? I’m not the only person that’s ever ordered this, babe."
The TikToker finished the video with a long sip of her drink as she encouraged her viewers to try it.
The video has been viewed close to four million times on TikTok, with over 6,000 flocking to the comments section to haver their say.

"This was the strangest order I ever remember getting when I worked at Sonic in high school," one person recalled, as a second added: "I have worked for Sonic for over 20+ years and I have never gotten a customer that has ordered a pickle Dr Pepper."
