Over a million people have watched YouTube's "The Food Surgeon" slice and dice an Oreo cookie to fit perfectly in the center of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.

Sound weird? It is.

And we're not the only ones addicted. Since the channel launched back in February, several of The Food Surgeon's videos have been the top trends on Facebook and racked up hundreds of thousands of views.

Check out our top five picks from The Food Surgeon's YouTube channel.
