Henrik Christiansen, the accomplished Norwegian swimmer, has gained a quirky new title: the “Muffin Man.” Christiansen has sparked a viral sensation centered around a chocolate chip muffin from the Paris Olympics. While many Olympians have voiced their dissatisfaction with the food at the Olympic Village, this particular muffin has emerged as a notable exception.
The trend kicked off in the last week of July when Christiansen aka ‘Muffin Man’ shared a TikTok video in which he reviewed the muffin, describing it as “insane.” This single video set off a chain reaction, leading him to post multiple videos solely dedicated to this delightful treat.
As a result, social media platforms have been flooded with chocolate chip muffin content. Chefs are sharing their own recipes, and bakeries are jumping on the opportunity to cater to the newfound demand. The chocolate chip muffin craze is sweeping the internet, thanks to Christiansen’s enthusiastic endorsement.
