Fusion food has taken an interesting direction, but not all experiments are good. One such video of a Chilli Oreo Omelette recently went viral, and the reaction has been extreme, with people terming it as weird and disgusting. The food item that involves mixing eggs, green chillies, and Oreo biscuits has left netizens wondering how far food innovation should go.
Chilli Oreo Omelette: A Fusion Too Far?
Omelette, a dish that everybody enjoys, has experienced numerous iterations through the years, ranging from plain cheese omelettes to fiery masala versions. This Chilli Oreo Omelette experiment, however, has taken it to another level. The viral video, captured by Shivam Sharma (@chaska_food_ka) on Instagram, features a street food seller in Kolkata.
The vendor starts by heating oil in a pan and beating eggs with chopped green chillies and onions. All seems well so far—until he takes a turn for the unexpected by adding Oreo biscuits directly into the omelette. With a quick flip, he cooks it evenly, then finishes it off with sauce, spices, and more green chillies before serving it.

Netizens Respond To Viral Omelette Video
Not surprisingly, the internet didn’t give its opinion for free. Social media users were appalled, with their comments varying from disbelief to a completely rejecting the dish. One of them posted, ‘This just pissed me off so bad.’ Another commented, ‘Two words: absolutely insane.’
There were even more caustic responses, with one user saying, ‘Bro needs to spend a little time in jail for this.’ Others took a tongue-in-cheek tack, facetiously calling for ‘Justice for Oreo!’ Several concurred that not everything belongs together, illustrating how some tests go too far.
While there are some trends that become hits despite initial reservations, it is hard to picture the Chilli Oreo Omelette being a hit. The mix of sweet and spicy ingredients has had most viewers puzzled rather than curious.
