Fun recursive food fact: the filling between the wafers of a kit-kat bar is ground up kit-kat bars.

Surely Wikipedia would mention such a unique property if it were true, but I can't find a mention of that an ingredient for kit kats is a (fractional) kit kat on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kit_Kat

I really want to believe this :(

This would transform the dependency graph from a DAG to one with cycles and thus the recipe could not be resolved

A small trick can help.

A Kit-Kat bar consists of some external components, like wafers and chocolate. It's only the combination that turns them into a bar.

So you can bootstrap production by grinding the components and mixing them: it produces a Kit-Kat bar in a ground state. After that, you can produce more and more nominal-state bars.

So... Kit-Kats are impossible! Yet they exist, a miracle!

Which came first, the filling or the kit-kat bar?
