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.

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had a splendid response after South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace attempted to claim that his support for transgender women would bar him from recognizing fraud in his state.

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
