Social media users pointed out that money doesn't buy you class after seeing a recent photo posted by affluent socialite Kourtney Kardashian.
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star is the eldest sibling to Kim and Khloé, and younger brother, Rob–all of whom were born to parents Robert Kardashian and Kris–who later remarried to Caitlyn Jenner prior to her name change.
Kardashian–along with her sisters–has had successful ventures in the retail and fashion industry, and she also released a book Kardashian Konfidential.
She earns thousands of dollars through the endorsement of products such as waist-slimming pants, beauty products, Coca-Cola, and prescription drugs–upwards of $300,000 per post on various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
With her unofficial marriage to musician Travis Barker on April 3, 2022, Kardashian may seem like she has it all.
But some people could argue she lacks etiquette when it comes to dining in private.
The Poosh lifestyle website founder recently posted a photo of a bathroom with plates of food on the floor next to a bathtub filled with pink bubbly water.

The bathroom buffet strewn about on the tile floor consisted of plates of strawberries, a slice of what appeared to be a raspberry cheesecake, three macarons, chicken tenders and a plate of a partial burger placed on the toilet lid.
A stainless steel plate cover under the pedestal sink next to the tub suggested this was was in a hotel room.
Out of the ten photos included in the post, it was the one of the bathroom floor feast that gave people the dry heaves.

She posted a rare response to the backlash on her IG Story.
"The comments about this photo😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫"

Could there be a rational explanation for this unappetizing display?
Perhaps.
The next photo in her Story showed her and her rocker beau soaking inside the same bathtub and indulging in the toilet dining.
Based on the lighting and the tagging of pro photographer Ellen von Unwerth, the image suggesteed it was staged for a photo shoot–indicating the unsanitary dining setting was not an everyday thing.
That we know of, at least.

With no explanation from the original poster, it's no wonder people filled in the blanks and thought she was just being uncivilized.
Regardless, many thought on principle that there are two activities that should just never occur in the same location.
As the familiar idiom goes about avoiding drama where you frequent, the same could apply here in reverse–Don't eat where you do number two.
Just food for thought.
