The Rock, Paper, Scissors Food Challenge is a viral trend on TikTok where creators compete with their friends and family for a delicious meal.
The challenge involves playing rock, paper, scissors and seeing who can eat a bite while the other runs laps. The challenge is believed to have its origins in the popular TikTok food trend “Dinner Date Challenge,” which went viral in 2023.
While the dinner date challenge involved couples playing rock, paper, scissors to decide who would choose an appetizer, main course and dessert, this trend adds a competitive element to the original food challenge.
To try this challenge, all you need to do is order a meal from your favorite fast food restaurant with a friend and line up outside in front of the camera or in a location with enough space for a short run.
The aim of the game is to play rock, paper, scissors. Whoever wins gets to start eating. The loser, however, has to do a short run.
When they come back from jogging, you have to play again. This process repeats until the meal is finished, and you may not even be able to enjoy a single bite.
This is the perfect TikTok trend for people who hate sharing food because you have to eat as much as possible while the other person gets in some exercise.
Or if you’re a fitness fanatic, maybe you enjoy running with a mouth full of fries. One person on TikTok commented, “This is the first food challenge I’ve actually stuck with and not gotten bored of. Thank you.”
These videos get funnier every time, and the rock-paper-scissors eating challenge is a great trend to try if you’re having trouble with a friend who never shares their food.
If you still have room for dessert after trying this TikTok food trend, why not try a candy salad?
