College sophomore created an Iowa tradition that absolutely nobody wanted

Sir, you're under arrest.

This creation might be worst than pineapple on pizza.

Chris Jorgensen, a sophomore at Iowa State University did the unthinkable and made a Pop-Tart sandwich...with cheese.

Please hold on to your pitchforks and appetite.

The college student posted two images of his concoction and tweeted, "You ain't from Iowa if you never had one of these." Hey Iowa, what are you doing?

"There have been posts really similar to this before - some very odd or disgusting food with the tweet saying something along the lines of 'You aren't from [place] if you never had [food]'," he told Independent.

"My roommate and I have always thought they were really funny. I told him one night that I wanted to make a tweet like that."

Despite the joke, it didn't take long for people (especially some local Iowans) to dismantle this lie.

The tweet already has over 700 retweets and 2,000 likes. It continues to garner confused reactions from Twitter.

The Iowa State University Police even got involved much to everyone's cry to have this man arrested. We're still waiting for the case to officially open, because this meal is a crime against humanity.

"I thought it was hilarious because from the start it was a joke and so many people took it seriously," he told Independent.

It can be tough being a college student on a budget, so let this be example to never resort to this as a final choice.
