[ad_1]

Two Asian women were filmed on TikTok pulling off the outer green leaves from several heads of iceberg lettuce while shopping at a west Australian Coles store.

TikToker James Longstaff, whose username is @longie69, posted a video on June 4 of the two women with a shopping cart full of loose lettuce leaves at one of the supermarket chain’s locations. One woman can be seen pulling the leaves off of the iceberg lettuce while the other places them into plastic bags. At the end of the video, Longstaff sarcastically says, Thats very hygienic.

While some internet users defended the two women, many others criticized the two for being unhygienic and not leaving enough for others.

In Europe this is common. You have scrap bins to toss out the outer layers, one user wrote.

Theyre taking the outer leaves which are normally discarded [and] obviously cant pay for them, another user said.

Lettuce is sold by each not weight, so theyre actually stealing from everyone who buys a lettuce after them, one user criticized.

Multiple users also observed the shoppers as them and the Chinese while implying that Asian shoppers often use feeding chickens as an excuse. Some commenters also mocked Asian accents while making racist jokes.

I have seen them swap eggs out of 800g into caged egg cartons, one user wrote. When another commenter asked who them is, other users responded, Chinese.

Even if you say something they [say] no speak English, another wrote.
