About
The Asking Men to Clean Hot Sauce Trend or Asking My Fiance / Husband To Clean Spilled Hot Sauce Trend is a TikTok trend in which a woman pours a blob of hot sauce or ketchup on a countertop and asks her male significant other to clean it so they can observe and poke fun at their cleaning technique. The trend was popularized in January 2024 and is inspired by a viral video by TikToker @katherinee_310 where she films her fiance attempting to clean spilled hot sauce by simply wiping it with a paper towel, implying there are more efficient ways to clean the spill, such as scooping it with the paper towel.
Origin
On December 26th, 2023, TikToker[1] @katherinee_310 posted a video captioned, "I dropped some hot sauce and I asked my fiance to clean it and this is how it went."
