Giving back
Tariq has joined Green Giant to embrace the spirit of Thanksgiving by donating 50,000 cans corn to the brand’s Thanksgiving meal boxes. “What is Thanksgiving without corn?”Tariq inquired in a press release. “Thanksgiving is practically a holiday about corn. I mean, every day could be a holiday if you get to eat corn at some point – but this is the one day that we get to stay home with family, watch a big parade, and then eat corn. Lots and lots of corn. It’s my favorite day of the year!”
‘Let Corn Kid sing’
Viewers were disappointed Tariq didn’t perform a version of the viral track that he had remixed from his love for corn.
The corn kid should have taken part in the jolly green giant flot.

“WHERE ARE YOU?”
Others pointed out that Tariq was not actually visible on the floating platform when he was introduced.
Did they actually *show* the #cornkid? He’s just kinda hiding back there behind all those other lil veggies. #MacysThanksgivingDayParade

“Makes Me so Happy”
Others were just happy Tariq was there and reminded us of his funny viral moment.
