The 'Kendall Jenner Cucumber Girl' meme stems from a May 2022 episode of the Hulu series The Kardashians, where the supermodel attempted to slice a cucumber in her mother's kitchen. Her bizarre technique—holding the vegetable with one hand while crossing her other arm over it to cut—instantly went viral as viewers mocked her apparent lack of basic culinary skills. The moment became a symbol of 'rich person problems' and the disconnect between ultra-wealthy celebrities and everyday tasks. It is now widely used to represent anyone struggling with a simple responsibility or 'adulting' in an unnecessarily complicated or clumsy way.
