Being wholesome and enjoying food don’t sound like qualities that would make someone famous in our cutthroat, catty world.

But that’s exactly what happened after this man tried his wife’s sweet potato pancakes.

“Spectacular, give me 14 of them right now,” he says while chowing down on camera.

This audio has become a meme and has been used in nearly 27,000 other TikTok videos.

But the rest of the video isn’t sampled in @bigalandvicky’s viral TikTok. Here’s how it went.

“Really?” Al’s wife Vicky replies, holding the plate off camera.

“I don’t care,” Al says. “Don’t tell me.”

“No I’m gonna tell you. Two ingredients: sweet potato and eggs.”

People are sampling the first part of the audio in many different ways.

Some of the TikToks feature kids eating food. Some include people trying a new product.

Popular Italian rock band Måneskin even jumped on board. In their TikTok, frontman Dem lip sycs to it, referring to the last time they went viral on the platform.

It’s not clear why this audio became such a hit. Perhaps because it’s a much needed break from the toxic energy and devastating news that fills most of our feeds these days.

People love to see partners supporting each other, especially in such a wholesome and adorable way.

Watch the full clip.
