Chances are you've probably seen the video, in which Caesar talks about beans, greens, potatoes and tomatoes, and you've probably seen the video remixed with Beyoncé dancing, or even Chris Brown.

Of course, people are getting even more creative with the videos:

Do yourself a favor today; search the #UNameItChallenge on social media and have a few laughs.

Also, someone probably should let Caesar know that she's gone viral.
