Cookies, pretzels, an apple, leftover Chipotle⦠and dog food. Thatās what TikToker @kaitlynnjb revealed her husband ālovinglyā packed when she forgot her lunch at home because nothing says romance like pairing Milano cookies with Kibbles ān Bits.
And no, folks, the TikToker is not a golden retriever; sheās a teacher who thought she was sharing a lighthearted story-time about her husbandās ālunch delivery.ā
But the internet, being the internet, turned it into a cross-examinationāwith zero chill and plenty of side-eye.
The TikToker explained:
āSo, I forgot my lunch today, and I asked my husband to bring me lunch. So letās do an unboxing because clearly itās a little full.ā
Inside the black-and-white super cute lunch bag: an already opened sleeve of Milano cookies, a half-eaten bag of pretzels that looked stale as hell, an obligatory apple because teacher vibes, a knock-off can of spicy jalapeƱo Pringles that had clearly been sampled, more cookies, and the piĆØce de rĆ©sistanceāChipotle leftovers. Correction: two-day-old Chipotle leftovers.
And just when you think the bar canāt get lower, she reaches into the bottom of the bag.
Pulling out a Ziploc bag of dog food, complete with two notes from hubby that she read:
āāBecause youāre my dawg⦠Please bring back, the dogs are low on food.ā
Shakespeare wrote sonnets; this guy sends Scooby Snacks.
She added, jokingly defending him:
āSo, ladies, if you donāt have food and your husband has to bring you a lunch. Just know that youāre gonna get lots of, lots of food as well as maybe even a cute note.ā

@kaitlynnjb Thanks Trev love you so much! Thanks for really putting thought into itā¦. Also I realized you clearly knew where the ziplocks were cause you used one for the dog food⦠#newteacher #teachertok #elementaryteacher #firstyearteacher #husbandwife
The internetās verdict: not cute.
Half the comments accused him of being insensitive:

u/Hial_SW/Reddit
u/Kim_in_CA/Reddit

The other half accused her of staging the whole thing for clout:

u/Fickle-Board-3355/Reddit
u/Ruhrohhshaggy/Reddit
u/GalileaGalilie/Reddit
Others compared it to more thoughtful husbands who packed suspiciously Pinterest-ready lunches for their influencer wives to unbox:
@lindseyteaches Not me pretending he doesnāt pack my lunch every day 𤪠thanks my king!!!! #whatsinmylunchbox #teacher #teacherlunchbox #teachertok #lunchfrommyhusband @Chomps @Solely: Organic Fruit Snacks @rareform
And some got that it was a joke with #supportivehusband:
@corilawrence22 appreciate him though š#workingmom #supportivehusband
Either way, the clip went viral across TikTok, Reddit, X, and Instagram.
The internet also questioned whether the TikToker was enabling her husbandās āweaponized incompetence.ā
For the uninitiated, thatās when someone pretends theyāre bad at basic tasks so they never have to do them again. Think Everybody Loves Raymond, where Debra realizes Ray ācanātā make the bed, fold laundry, change a diaper, or buy groceries without turning it into slapstickāso she just does it herself.
Cute in the ā90s with a laugh track, but in 2025? Itās less sitcom humor and more grounds for a collective internet intervention.
Facing the backlash, Kaitlyn doubled down with a follow-up posted last week:
āOkay, number one, the dog food... Y'all are so pressed that he called me a 'dog.' He did not call me a D-O-G dog, DOG, like a dog that has a leash. He did not call me that. D-A-W-G, dog, as in homie. American slang for homie. It's what we call each other. It's a joke. J-O-K-E, joke. Y'all were also so pressed that he put it in my lunch box.ā
Imagine defending your man by spelling out D-A-W-G like you're Elmo on Sesame Street.
Claiming it was all a joke (one her sister apparently found hilarious), she clarified that the Chipotle wasnāt two days old but actually just one:
āMoving on, second, the Chipotle, y'all are all really upset that it was two-day-old Chipotle. Well, guess what? Teacher brain deceived me. It was actually a day old. It was from the night before, so not even a day old. I said two ā as a teacher, one day feels like seven.ā
Relatable. Last week felt like a decade and a half of political discourse mayhem.
She even listed her go-to orderāa steak, rice, and beans burrito bowl (no guacamole, which deserves major side-eye)āand reminded viewers her husband does bring ārealā food, like Chick-fil-A, āonce a week.ā On the first day of school, he even surprised her with candy and flowers.

Unfortunately, the internet wasnāt convinced. Commenters stayed split between āsweet husband jokeā and āgirl, he played you with kibble.ā
