- A social media influencer is facing backlash after sharing a video online detailing how she washes her dirty underwear in hotel coffee machines.<\/li>\n
- After much public backlash and rumors of a lawsuit, the influencer posted another video claiming it was all a joke.<\/li>\n
- The Internet is unsurprisingly not<\/em> amused with the entire discourse.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nI consider myself a pro traveler\u2014after all, I do write about food and travel for a living. And over the years, I\u2019ve picked up quite a few travel hacks. Case in point: I never order coffee or tea on the airplane. One thing you\u2019ll absolutely never see me doing, though, has just gone viral on social media…and like me, people really<\/em> aren\u2019t having it. <\/p>\n
Social media influencer Tara Woodcox has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. She took to Instagram recently to reveal a travel hack she uses (or doesn\u2019t, depending on which of her videos you want to believe) that involves your handy dandy hotel room coffee maker. But Woodcox doesn\u2019t use it to brew her coffee beans\u2014instead, she touts it as a great place to wash your underwear. That\u2019s right, this genius thinks dirty clothes and food equipment go hand in hand. Ick.<\/p>\n
