A TikTok user, identified as @mongueritos, has sparked controversy by publishing a video that shows a woman carrying out an unusual strategy to cook without dirtying her new kitchen. In the images, the woman cooks between cardboard.
The daughter, who accompanies the recording with the description “How my mother cooks so that her kitchen doesn’t get dirty HAHAHA,” reveals the tactic used by her mother. However, while some find humor in the situation, others express concern about the safety of the method.
Comments such as “oh my god, the kitchen isn’t going to get dirty… but it’s going to set the house on fire” reflect the concerns of some viewers, who warn about the potential risks of cooking among flammable materials.
Some users offer safer and more practical alternatives to keep a new kitchen clean. Some suggest conventional cleaning methods, while others share their own experiences with creative, but less risky, solutions.
The video has quickly gone viral, accumulating more than 50,000 likes and generating an exchange of opinions between those who find the mother’s strategy funny and those who warn about its possible consequences.
