The narrator discusses the "pink sauce saga," which began when a TikTok chef created a viral recipe that many people attempted to make, despite it being a "fascinating disaster." The sauce was rotten, rancid, and potentially hazardous to consume. Despite this, the chef was able to sign a deal with a food brand, Dave's Gourmet Sauces, to distribute the sauce in Walmart stores. The narrator believes that the sauce has been reformulated to be safe for consumption, but is still unhappy that the chef was able to profit from her original, hazardous product. The narrator also criticizes the chef's behavior, citing an interview where she was rude and condescending to a critic who had tested the sauce for safety. The narrator has no intention of trying or purchasing the pink sauce, even as a joke, due to their dislike of the chef and her product.
