A father’s unusual display of table manners during what looks like a family gathering breakfast feast became a viral moment on social media.
The clip shared on TikTok by @king_mntungwa drew massive comments, leaving many viewers shocked and debating.
The video shows the father sitting comfortably on a lounge couch with two plates: one filled with braai meat and the other with eggs sitting on his thigh. He is filmed carefully choosing pieces from the plate of steak and sausage, moving the best cuts to a separate plate on the coffee table.
The family's breakfast moment is disturbed
While he is busy with his careful selection, he notices that a child has added too much water to the kettle for tea and immediately. The amusing moment of territorialism is interrupted when his daughter corrects him. She innocently questions his actions, asking him why he is taking meat when he has eggs. Throughout the clip, the man is seen licking his fingers and touching the communal plate of meat.

SA discusses manners and hygiene
The clip gained massive views, likes, and comments from social media users who found the father's actions unsettling and raised hygiene concerns. Many users were uncomfortable that the man kept licking his fingers while touching the meat, deeming it unhygienic and shocking. This sparked a discussion about proper table manners, even in a casual home setting.
Others assumed the video was a skit, suggesting it only made sense if it were created for content. A common joke was that the dad looked like the type of man who had his designated possessions: his own cup, plate, and seat that no one else is allowed to touch.
