The meme has two sections: a block of text at the top, followed by a photo of a small black dog with gray fur around its muzzle. The text explains the owner tried to create TikTok content by giving their dog a softboiled egg served in an ice cream cone, expecting the dog would gently lick the yolk. Instead, the dog ate both the egg and cone in one bite, choked, threw the food up, then ate the vomited food again, so the owner chose not to post the footage. The dog is shown lying on a dark gray couch, partially tucked under a gray blanket, resting on a light brown knitted blanket, with a calm, blank expression.
