LONDON -- Sometimes it's the simple ideas that catch on.

Combining two different types of food is the oldest trick in the book, but joining two chocolate bars together isn't something you see very often.

That's all about to change, though. Introducing the "Toblorange" -- a creation from British author James Hannah that's currently sweeping social media at an alarming rate.

Yep, that's right -- it's nothing more complicated than the segments of a Terry's Chocolate Orange slotted carefully into the grooves of a Toblerone. It's simple, but -- somehow -- it just makes so much damn sense. The two go perfectly together and, quite frankly, it's downright shocking that none of us have thought of it before.

Hannah was kind enough to wave a copyright fee, too.

And get this: I am waiving my copyright fee for your own Toblorange. You may recreate it free of charge. It's morally the right thing to do.— James Hannah. (@jameshannah) January 2, 2016

The Toblorange is now sweeping Britain.

Toblerone even shared their feedback.

@jameshannah Better retire now, you've peaked.— Toblerone (@Toblerone) January 4, 2016

There's only downside? It's a whole lot of chocolate to get through in one sitting.
