About

Chick Can Jog Key, also known as Chick & Jaw Key, Chick N Jaw Key or Chicken Pepsi Run Key, refers to a four-panel image showing a chicken (or chick), a can of Pepsi soda, a guy running (or jogging) and a key. The riddle is "chick, can, jog, key," which when said fast sounds like Chicken Jockey, the meme from A Minecraft Movie. The original form of the meme was Chick & Jaw Key. The meme was originally posted on TikTok in mid-2025, and later spread to Twitter / X and Reddit via reposts. The format is a part of the Say Them Together Fast trend which has been likened to Engagement Bait. It's also similar to the James Bond Burger meme.
