In a display of classic sibling rivalry, Kylie Jenner couldn't resist poking fun at her supermodel sister Kendall Jenner's notorious kitchen struggles as the famous family gathered for their Thanksgiving feast.
The Infamous Cucumber Incident
The good-natured teasing stems from a viral moment three years ago when Kendall Jenner, then 27, appeared on her family's reality show The Kardashians and demonstrated what fans described as an "insane attempt" to chop a cucumber. The now-30-year-old model appeared completely perplexed by the simple task, at one point crossing one arm over the other while trying to slice the vegetable.
The clip quickly became an internet sensation, with social media users mercilessly mocking her technique. Kendall herself retweeted one fan who wrote: 'Kendall Jenner trying to cut a f***ing cucumber is the most tragic thing I've ever witnessed.' The moment became such an enduring meme that Kendall addressed it over a year later in a WSJ Magazine interview, insisting: "I physically cut the cucumber and I did it tastefully."
Thanksgiving Throwback
This Thanksgiving morning, Kylie decided to revive the memory by sharing videos of Kendall carefully peeling and chopping a carrot for their family meal. In the background of the footage, Kylie's faint giggles could be heard as she posted the clips with playful captions including "the confidence!!!" and "she's doing such a good job," accompanied by a tearing up emoji.
The sisters were part of their family's traditional Thanksgiving celebration at matriarch Kris Jenner's Palm Springs home, where the entire clan gathers annually. Their older half-sister Khloe Kardashian recently described the festivities to People magazine as "the best. We spend all day together, just like doing nothing but we're all together. So it's chaos, but a fun chaos."
Post-Feast Fallout
After the family had finished their Thanksgiving dinner, Kylie continued the joke by posting a photo of Kendall sound asleep in bed with the caption: "she worked so hard on her cooking." The lighthearted ribbing appears to be a longstanding family joke that began with the original cucumber incident in 2022.
That fateful moment unfolded when Kendall visited her mother and insisted on making her own snack despite Kris offering to have her chef prepare something. Kendall declared she would be "making it myself" before the awkward vegetable preparation that eventually led her to confess she was "not a good cutter" and "kind of scared of the knife." Kris ultimately called the chef to save the day.
Beyond the kitchen antics, Kylie shared other glimpses of their Thanksgiving, including Kendall squeezing in pre-meal exercise with a bicycle ride, sweetly captioned "my thanksgiving cutie," and a mirror selfie of her own slinky black cocktail dress for the evening festivities.
