A viral TikTok has sparked a debate on plane snack etiquette after capturing a fellow passenger in the middle seat cracking open canned tuna mid-air.
TikToker Ally Jaksen was on a three-and-a-half Alaska Airlines flight from Anchorage to Seattle when she caught the person sitting next to her opening up a can of Bumble Bee Seafood’s tuna and eating it with Ritz crackers as his inflight snack.
The video, which has gained over 1.2 million views on TikTok, sent other users into a frenzy over the fact that a passenger would eat something so fishy at such a high altitude packed next to dozens of other passengers.
“Canned tuna on the plane gotta be up there in terms of crimes against humanity,” Jaksen jokingly captioned the video.
Some users commented that they would have said something to the passenger, while one claimed that they are so “sensitive to smells I would have thrown up on this person”.
“I love tuna,” another said. “But this breaches etiquette rules on so many levels.”
One commenter jokingly called for the passenger to be on the “no-fly list, immediately”.
