TikTokers use ketchup challenge to test relationships

Following the orange peeling theory which was all about asking your partner to peel an orange for you, the battle of sexes has reached a new low. This time women on TikTok are sharing videos where they are squirting ketchup on their kitchen counter and asking their partners/boyfriends to clean it up. Yes, that’s it. That’s the whole challenge known as the 'ketchup challenge'.

Ketchup company Heinz too joined the fun TikTok trend

TikTokers are sharing videos and sharing stories about their different experiences and cleaning techniques of their partners. These videos have garnered millions of views and even the ketchup company Heinz has joined the fun trend, by sharing a TikTok video with the caption “the only way we know how to clean it.”

The Heinz TikTok video shows a man just getting fries and cleaning the ketchup by eating the fries with them.
