A passenger on a plane made a big deal about some smelly food that another passenger brought on board. The video of this has gone viral.
A passenger on a Delta flight to Tampa, Florida, made a controversial food choice. Zavier Torrence wrote on TikTok, “I strongly believe that people who eat on flights should be jailed for 10 days.”
In the December 2 video clip that is only 5 seconds long, Torrence covers his nose because of the strong smell that fills the plane.
“A tuna melt on a plane?! Why are we doing this?!?” he wrote in the video’s description, which has over 706,000 views.
The person from Florida didn’t say who the tuna lover was, but he did say that he wished they hadn’t eaten it on the trip.
A lot of tourists agreed with Torrence that the fishy meal was gross, while others thought people should eat anything that doesn’t smell bad.
“I have a 10-hour flight coming up…”Do you think people won’t eat on a plane? talked to one woman.
“Sure, I’m going to eat.” “But not a tuna melt,” said someone else.
Someone else said, “Tuna on a plane is crazy, but they can eat whatever they want.”
Another guy said, “Any kind of fish on a plane is evil.”
“I’m going to eat, but I want Cheez-Its or jerky.” A visitor said, “I’m so self-aware on planes I could never.”
“Smelled food is illegal. What do you mean by a tuna melt?” asked a TikToker.
But some people didn’t seem to care about proper flight behavior and ate whatever they felt like.
As The Post previously reported, a female passenger made the biggest mistake of her life when she saw her seatmate eat a can of tuna in the air. In a TikTok film that has been seen over 1.2 million times, she talked about the flying fish incident.
“Being on a plane with canned tuna has to be one of the worst crimes against humanity ever,” the TikTok user Ally wrote in the description.
In a follow-up video, it was said that her neighbor opened a can of tuna 10 minutes into the trip from Anchorage, Alaska, to Seattle, Washington.
“I see it out of the corner of my eye and think, ‘That better not be what I think it is,'” she said. Of course, it was.
That being said, most airlines let people bring solid foods on board as long as they were bought after screening. But when it comes to smells, there are no hard and fast rules. Just be polite and aware of your fellow riders.
