TikTok is a great platform for discovering new and exciting ways to cook and enjoy food. Thanks to its culinary community, also known as FoodTok, recipes and ingredients can quickly become trending topics. Here are five of the most popular TikTok food trends of 2023 thus far, with more to come in the upcoming months.
I love FoodTok. I hate listening to people eat.
1. Chopped Sandwiches
Italian hoagies have been given a new twist with this viral trend. Chopped sandwiches, as the name suggests, involve chopping the ingredients of an Italian sandwich, including condiments, finely and loading them into a roll. The result is a cross between a salad and an Italian hoagie, ensuring that every bite is balanced and delicious. Be sure to check out the videos for some mouth-watering inspiration.

2. Tinned Fish
Tinned fish content has been all the rage recently, with tinned mussels, octopus, and salmon drenched in various oils taking the internet by storm. What’s more, high-end grocers are now selling artisanal tinned fishes, providing food lovers with a more refined alternative. Tinned fish is also an excellent choice for a romantic meal, making for a perfectly curated and easy-to-prepare dinner.

3. Hash Browns as Toast
McDonald’s-style hash browns patties have been a staple of the fast-food chain’s breakfast menu for decades. But what about using them as a substitute for bread? That’s precisely what FoodTokers are doing, with hash browns becoming the latest toast trend. From classic avocado toast to more elaborate options, like egg and cheese hash browns, the possibilities are endless.
