Taylor Swift Eating Chicken With 'Seemingly Ranch' Is The Internet's Happy Place

If you've been anywhere near the internet over the past week, then you know that Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce, might be a bit of an item. Suffice it to say, the internet is losing its mind over this rumored romance. While this couple is unexpected to many, what's even more of a surprise is one aspect of Swift's visit to her alleged new beau's football game that caught the internet's attention: her game-day snack. The star ate chicken tenders with ketchup and (probably) ranch dressing.

On Sunday, September 24, Swift made an appearance at Arrowhead Stadium to watch the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears. Fans ate up every detail of the kickoff of Swift's football fan era, even commenting on what she ate and drank during the game. A fan posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, a seemingly simple photo of Swift posing next to a plate with a chicken tender and two kinds of sauce. The poster's interesting phrasing about the star's meal sparked many memes and even sent new products into development. The now-famous tweet reads, "Taylor Swift was eating a piece of chicken with ketchup and seemingly ranch!" The use of the word "seemingly" has seemingly broken the internet.

Seemingly, Ranch Is Taking The World By Storm

Who doesn't love a good chicken tender? As her fans could not doubt tell you, Taylor Swift has previously placed chicken tenders on top of her list of favorite foods. Plus, the diehard Swifties say that everything is an Easter egg for her fans. So, we'd be remiss if we ignored the fact that ketchup and "seemingly" ranch are the Kansas City Chiefs' colors, right? Most of all, Swift's fans have reacted to the relatability of her meal choices, saying things like: "She really is just like me."

Still, you'd be surprised at all the folks who've gotten in on this joke. KFC replied to the tweet, calling Swift its "Ranch Queen," and Merriam-Webster added, "seemingly | adverb | outwardly or apparently -- used to indicate how something appears or seems." Fans were also delighted to see that the Empire State Building lit up red and white, with the caption on X reading, "Ketchup and seemingly ranch."

If over 51,000 likes and more than 1,000 comments on the original tweet aren't enough, "seemingly ranch" is inspiring more than just a meme; it's becoming its own product. Heinz has taken to Instagram to advertise a new ketchup flavor based on the viral tweet. The caption reads, "It's a new Era for Heinz. Introducing Ketchup and Seemingly Ranch. Limited-edition bottles coming soon," and it features an image of the limited-edition bottle. If we didn't know the power of Swift's influence before, we surely know it now, and it sounds surprisingly tasty.
