Most people have been to at least one potluck where you bring a small item or side dish of food and everyone shares what was brought. But while this concept is relatively popular in the United States, not everyone has been to one or understands how they work.
Katie, a comedian that goes by @katieKcomedy on TikTok, made a video where she was making fun of a guest who brought a single pizza to a potluck.
In her video, Katie focused on the fact there were 30 people at the potluck so if everyone wanted a slice of pizza, most guests wouldn't get one.
Or she could have cut the pieces into smaller slices if it was really an issue.
However Katie went on to claim she had to order four more pizzas so everyone at the party could have a piece of pizza.
You can see the video here:
This video was met with criticism by others who said Katie herself didn't understand the spirit behind potlucks.
The comments on the video focused on the fact Katie was being unnecessarily critical of someone who did nothing wrong.

As of this writing, Katie hasn't responded to the feedback she received.
