The video of the young men taking part in an American trend, South African style, amused many. People were in awe of the videos showing the American trend done by South Africans,
In a TikTok video, @mthakathi18 showed people that they were sitting together to eat a sheep's head. Mimicking Americans, they showed people how tender it was by lifting the bone and watching the meat fall off. The man captioned the video tenderism to refer to the American videos. The challenge involved proving that the food is cooked to perfection by making the meat fall off the bone. Whenever the bone slides off, the content creator has to walk off in satisfaction and disbelief with a serious expression. The young guys joked about how they pronounced tenderism, and one of them hilariously said:
"Tendernosizimo."
