About
If You Don't Like X, You Should Try Again! refers to a series of exploitable image macro memes based on a version of the If You Like X, You Should Try Y format and phrasal template, which advises to give something you didn't like but is considered good by someone else another try. Spawned by a TikTok published in June 2023, the format achieved virality in June 2024.
Origin
On June 23rd, 2023, TikTok[1] user @logan_pete_ posted a video captioned "Drink alternatives." Formatted after the If You Like X, You Should Try Y trend, the video suggested that if one didn't like Dr. Pepper, they should try again. The video (shown below) garnered over 5.3 million views and 614,000 likes in one week.
