Erik S. Lesser/Getty ImagesIt's the oldest joke in the book, "what's the deal with airplane food?" Well, now we have a better idea. Just ask a man who cooks shrimp in an airplane bathroom.
The New York Post reports the alleged chef fried up garlic shrimp in the airplane lavatory. Fry the friendly skies, as they say.
TikTok Chef Cooks Shrimp In Airplane Bathroom
"Well, I got a terrible idea," TikTok user @barfly777 shared in the now viral clip. He has gained more than 155,000 followers on TikTok by sharing unique videos of himself cooking things from pizza to ribs--but always in the bathroom.
It's definitely one way to cut through the clutter on the internet. People love their food...and crazy stories.
For this specific video, he decided to take things up a notch. More than 30,000 feet, I guess. According to the New York Post, he called the meal, "mile-high bathroom garlic shrimp and mash." Doesn't sound like anything I've ever seen on a menu before.
Per The New York Post, he described the meal and method, "With 2 6v batteries wired in series to an immersion beverage heater, one can 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."
Watch the video below. He filmed himself on the way to the airport saying he was nervous and, "The stuff I got packed looks like a bomb," The New York Post says.
Later, he films himself getting all his supplies ready in the airplane bathroom. He's shown hooking up the heater and sets the shrimp and mash on the diaper changing table in the lavatory. He gets the water boiling and throws the shrimp in and then adds the garlic butter.
He even gets resourceful and uses what appears to be the complimentary barf bag to help mix the ingredients. The man then goes back to his seat to enjoy his meal. It truly has to been seen to believed.
The problem about going viral? Everyone will see it. That likely includes the government and TSA. No word on what's going to happen to the man, but I wouldn't expect to see many more videos like this. Check it out below!
5 Best Fast Food Items On The Value Menu
Today, there are seemingly unlimited options in the fast food landscape. You have options for burgers, chicken sandwiches, tacos, and more. Anything you want you can have. When you're on-the-go and looking for a quick bite, there's nothing better than the value menu. Every fast food restaurant has one. Here are the best fast food items on the value menu.
We all know that fast food is appealing because of its low price and easy access. With prices for combos on the rise, I find myself looking at the value menu more often than ever before. I need to save where I can!

Best Of The Best
I have spent so much time in drive-thrus that I think I could be considered an expert witness in a court case, at this point. I've seen delicious items come and go, prices climb, and experiences all the promos and deals. Why did KFC get rid of the Twister? When will McDonald's bring back the famous Snack Wraps? These are all questions I ask every day, and sadly have no answers for. However, one day...we will get them back. I truly believe it in my heart of hearts.
I could go on and on about my love for the value menu. I'd say at least once a week I think back on my high school days when the Junior Bacon Cheeseburger from Wendy's was only 99 cents. Do you remember that? 99 cents! It was amazing. Now, the price for one JBC is closer to $3 than it is 99 cents. I feel like this is the new version of that old "back in my day, we'd walk 2 miles to school up hill both ways! stories your grandparents would tell. Now, these stories are all about how low the value menu prices were back in our day. "When I was your age, every item on the dollar menu was a dollar!"
After years of research, I've finally identified the best of the best when it comes to value menus. On this list, you'll find burgers, chicken sandwiches, tacos, and even some items that fall into the 'miscellaneous' category. Without further delay, let's get to the list!
The 5 Best Fast Food Items On The Value Menu

Junior Bacon Cheeseburger (JBC) - Wendy's
Bacon...mayo...crispy lettuce...what's not to love? It's one of the best sandwiches in fast food, and it's on the value menu.
McChicken - McDonald's
It never misses. Of all the value menu chicken sandwiches, none are better than the McChicken.

McDonald's has announced it will make changes to its low-priced Dollar Menu, which includes items like coffee, small fries, hamburgers and apple pies. The new menu, dubbed the Dollar Menu and More, will offer some higher priced options such as the grilled Onion Cheddar Burger and a McChicken sandwich.

Whopper Jr. - Burger King
It's actually an impressive size! I mean, have you seen the size of the OG Whopper? It lives up to its name, that's for sure. The Jr. works perfectly fine for me.
Spicy Potato Soft Taco - Taco Bell
It's delicious and it's only a dollar. Remember when value menus used to be dollar menus? *audible sigh* I do. Taco Bell is keeping the tradition alive.
Cheese Curds - Culver's
It's a rare treat to enjoy Culver's Cheese Curds. It's a rare treat to enjoy cheese curds, at all. You can get fries anywhere, but you can't get curds at every drive-thru. If I drive by a Culver's I have to stop and get some.
