After McDonald’s added the Grimace Shake to their menu, the food item became an almost overnight sensation on TikTok. Due to the meme's popularity, a filter was added to TikTok that features a large image of a Grimace Shake. A popular way to use this filter is to use it like a censor bar to cover parts of the body, which has prompted some TikTok users to ask if it's possible to remove the Grimace Shake filter from someone else's TikTok. In this article we'll go over in which ways you can remove the Grimace Shake filter from a TikTok.
