For some people 'The Great Cornholio' is an iconic episode of 'Beavis and Butt-head,' which happens to have celebrated its 20th anniversary a few days ago. For others, it will be forever known as an [epic burrito](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flamin-hot-grilled-cheese-burrito) made out of a ton of different candies. That is because someone has taken it upon himself to commemorate 'The Great Cornholio' episode by bringing the dish that brought out Beavis' alter-ego to life.

Chock full of [Fruit Roll-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruithead), Fruity Pebbles Treats, [Snickers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butterfinger-schmear), jelly beans, Reese's Pieces, jam and topped with sprinkles, 'The Great Cornholio' is a mishmash of chocolate and candy which will probably end in the worst stomach of all time. But that doesn't mean every bite won't be enjoyed until that awful end.
