Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

Chocolate lovers are not going to believe what they are about to see. If you are a Kit Kat lover, this is a story that you are going to want to see. We always thought that we knew everything there is to know about these candies but in reality? We have learned something new today. This astonishing video has arrived just in time for Halloween.

Zack D. Films posted a clip that has gone viral on YouTube and it shows how the candy is made.

It starts with the Kit Kats that we Americans know and love being split into two. We even get to see a close-up of the candy bars’ interior. “Some Kit Kats get broken while they are being made,” Zack says in the video. From there, we learned more than we would have ever wanted to know.

“And instead of throwing them out, the company crushes them up and adds sugar,” Zack tells the audience. He is also sure to add that the crushed wafers are then mixed up into a paste.

“And that’s what’s on the inside of a Kit Kat bar.” Of course, the comment section is pure gold, as people wanted to know more about how these candy bars are made.

“Have you ever wondered what’s in the Kit Kat bar inside of a Kit Kat bar?” one viewer inquired and we are right there with them on this one.

Meanwhile, we also agreed with another comment that said that they were fine with this practice. “Tbh I’m not complaining, more Kit Kats means more happiness towards me,” they shared.

It’s the sort of video that you are going to want to watch more than once. It is hard to believe what you are seeing at first but once we had the chance to sit with this, it makes perfect sense.

This video has us wondering how the other candy bars that we know and love are made. Perhaps it is time that we went down that YouTube rabbit hole.
