A “stitch trend” has gone viral on Tiktok where people stitch a TikTok by cooking influencer Susi Vidal who says she doesn’t like store-bought pesto. People then go on to comment on Susi’s statement before telling their most dramatic stories.
The latest TikTok stitching trend begins with a woman’s video about not liking store-bought pesto, and it has turned into one of the most gossip-filled trends on the platform.
In September, Susi Vidal, a home-cooking influencer with 3.5 million TikTok followers and over 1.4 million followers on Instagram, shared an unassuming recipe for homemade pesto.
“Call me crazy if you want, but I never liked store-bought pesto,” Susi said in the video before sharing her pesto recipes with her viewers.
However, people rarely get further into the video as it’s often stitched by other creators, who are taking part in the “Susi stitch” trend. But what exactly is that?

The stitches have nothing to do with store-bought pesto, but are instead a drama/gossip session going for longer than 30 seconds to recount the experiences.
However, the drama quickly grew more after that stitch. Content creators stitching Susi’s videos and trying to top being called crazy.
One woman shared a story about a weird smell in her apartment that turned out to be her neighbor’s rotting corpse.
