Idk what’s more shocking the chicken finger in the soda or the fact that the kid ISN’T the one doing it. 😷 https://t.co/xkXnT8mhqH

I have questions for the women the US Open film crew caught on camera dipping chicken fingers into her soda.

Several people say they love chicken fingers and soda on their own, but would never eat them in this particular combination.
I love chicken fingers and I love soda but this is an absolute crime. https://t.co/PW2LU0Pci3

A few people jokingly attributed the decision to the current heatwave in New York.
The heat makes you do strange things that is for sure. One minute you're enjoying lunch out there the next minute you're dunking a chicken finger in your soda like a maniac let's be honest. pic.twitter.com/fal4XzJwjQ

Although some are defending the woman.
Yes, I’ve seen the video of the woman dunking a chicken finger in to her soda. As someone who is routinely shamed for my condiment choices, I refuse to cast judgement on this pioneer.

And some intrepid thinkers have acknowledged that this woman could be onto the next big thing.
ESPN just showed a woman at the US Open dipping a chicken finger into her soda, and I can't wait for that to become a thing. #USOpen

@WLTX@AndreaMockSC@espn everyone is talking about how could the woman dip her chicken finger into her soda but, somebody said the same thing when the 1st person dipped into ranch, certain sauce or ketchup. So I don't understand the questions. #USOpen18#LetHerEnjoyHerFood

Who knows — chicken fingers dipped in soda might just join the ranks of divisive food pairings, like pineapple on pizza or peanut butter on burgers.
