MLB All-Star Giancarlo Stanton apparently doesn’t know how to eat a Kit Kat bar. The New York Yankees outfielder appeared on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" in 2018 and was seen eating a Kit Kat bar in a weird manner.

Stanton was called out on social media by MLB fans, saying:

MLB player Dee Strange-Gordon also posted a picture of Stanton eating a Kit Kat and requested he start respecting the rules.

"@Giancarlo818 you need to start respecting the rules sir." - Dee Strange-Gordon

Twitter was certainly not happy with the incident and called it “Candy Chaos.”

"@FlashGJr @Giancarlo818 Candy Chaos ;)" - Laura Santry

Another user explained a Kit Kat is to be eaten in a subtle manner.

"@FlashGJr @Giancarlo818sweetie that's not how you eat a Kit Kat my love. Piece by piece." - Marisol Quinones

Kit Kat also didn’t approve Stanton’s method.

"@DanOLeary25 We do not condone the actions of Mr. Stanton nor wish to make any further comments. Thank you." - KIT KAT Canada

The manufacturer of the candy bars allegedly provided Stanton some sweets to practice on, according to ESPN's Darren Rovell.

"The folks @KITKAT saw Giancarlo Stanton eating his like this, so they sent him this note & 432 Kit Kats to practice" - Darren Rovell
