TikToker Grosses Out The Internet By Cooking Shrimp And Mashed Potatoes In Airplane Bathroom

TikToker @barfly7777 recently shared a video of himself cooking shrimp and mashed potatoes in an airplane bathroom sink with the help of two large batteries—and viewers were thoroughly disgusted.

Travelers seeking to enjoy a cheap meal on a flight instead of coughing up $20 for a ready-made refrigerated sandwich at the airport need not look further.

Unless you're prone to gagging.


Social media users got the dry heaves after watching a TikTok prankster eating his "mile-high bathroom garlic shrimp and mash" meal that he "cooked" in an aircraft lavatory after combining the ingredients in the wash basin.

And we all know how sanitary that is.

TikToker Barfly posted a clip of his amateur culinary concoction, made on a Delta flight, and received over 900,000 views within four days of posting.

"With 2 6v batteries wired in series to an immersion beverage heater, one is able to get water scalding hot quickly," he explained in the caption.

He continued:

"Raw shrimp will only need a few minutes. Adding instant mash to the shrimp water adds some extra flavor."
"Garlic butter makes everything go."

Does it, though?

You decide.

With 2 6v batteries wired in series to an immersion beverage heater, one is able to get water scalding hot quickly. Raw shrimp will only need a few minutes. Adding instant mash to the shrimp water adds some extra flavor. Garlic butter makes everything go better. #terribleideawhattime #shrimp #garlicshrimp #mashedpotatoes #flying #bathroomchef #howtocookproperly #barfly7777 #innovation #privatechef #newidea #hack #Splice


The clip showed Barfly en route to the airport, going through TSA, boarding the plane, and showing viewers two packages of "Great Value" brand frozen food items from his seat.

One package contained "roasted garlic complete potatoes" and the other had "x-large shrimp."

He grabbed one of the air-sick bags from the back-seat pocket and made his way over to the lavatory, but not to vomit or even for a tinkle.

Once inside, he filled the bathroom sink and boiled the water with the help of a 2-pack Rayovac Zinc Carbon 6-Vol lantern battery.

Next, he dumped the bag of shrimp in the sink of hot water and threw in some garlic powder and pads of butter for flavoring.

Using the same water, he emptied the bag of powdered mashed potatoes and combined the ingredients with his hands, using more pads of butter for his starchy appetizer.

He then tossed the mashed clumps in the barf bag, threw in the shrimp, and returned to his seat, where he scarfed down his DIY lunch in the sky.

A scroll through his TikToks indicates Barfly focuses on shocking food videos.

But his in-flight meal video, in particular, caused turbulence back on terra firma.

The backlash continued on X (formerly Twitter).







When people accused Barfly of staging the viral video, he insisted, "This wasn't done in a studio."

After a skeptical user pointed out there were two different sinks shown in the clip, Barfly noted:

"It actually took me two planes to get it all filmed."
"Yeah, but they were all up in the air and I got it done."

He added there were a "few outtakes that didn't make the cut."

Delta has not responded to inquiries regarding whether or not Barfly violated any specific rules.

The airline did say, however, that they knew of the video and were looking into it.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
