About

Laundry Sauce is a slang term for laundry detergent. After being used in a viral tweet in the fall of 2016, it became the subject of jokes in various popular meme templates at the beginning of 2017.

Origin

While "laundry sauce" had been used as a name for homemade laundry detergent products prior to the fall of 2016,[1] it did not begin spreading as a meme until September 14th, 2016, when Twitter user @BRENTHOR[2] tweeted "Who the fuck call laundry sauce 'detergent'? Ok mr scientist lmao." The tweet, shown below, has gained over 41,000 retweets and 69,000 likes as of April 10th, 2017.

in reply to Mr. Candles

it’s really an unfunny nickname. Thirsty boy at least has the absurdity of the nickname going for it. Laundry sauce on the other hand is as boring a nickname as it gets. There's nothing weird, silly, or interesting about it. And there's especially not enough versatility in a simple punchline of "laundry sauce" to warrant a meme. One might as well call a fork a “pointy spoon” and get the same response

It’s just a boring, forced twitter meme, and it will hopefully be forgotten by the end of the month
