Peacock hides ‘The Office’ Chili recipe in user agreement

A girl posted a video to tiktok showing how her boyfriend had stumbled upon TV lore gold while, of all things, reading the terms and conditions legalese on Peacocks streaming page for ‘The Office’.

I’ll make that clearer… if you go on Peacock and go to ‘The Office,’ you can click on the terms and conditions and in there you’ll find the recipe for Kevins famous chili!

“So my boyfriend obviously reads the terms and conditions” she says, “I’m trying to figure out why the chili from The Office, the recipe, is on here in the terms of conditions with the instructions.”

See the tiktok below and then we included the recipe.
