The internet froze over this couple.
A Virginia couple came under fire online after a video of the couple licking an ice cream container at a grocery store and then putting it back again went viral.
In a now-deleted Instagram post, the couple, identified as Tequan and Asia Hines, are walking through the frozen section of a grocery store when Tequan encourages Asia to open a tub of Blue Bunny Soft Vanilla ice cream and lick the top off.
“Let me prove it. Let me taste it,” Tequan can be heard saying as he films his wife. Asia then lifts the tub up to her mouth as she looks around her to make sure the duo isn’t seen.
“Okay, give it back,” he orders. “Hurry up, hurry up!”
At the end of the 19-second video, the couple can be seen running down the hall barely holding back their laughter.
the video was after posted on Twitter and has been viewed nearly 6 million times, with several users losing their cool over the pair.
“So when are they going to lock them up?” asked an user
“What?! What’s wrong with people? Why is this even a thing? This is disgusting,” commented other.
“20 years in jail” another addition. I’m serious.
“Just remember that this is a felony.” struck a critical room.
The Post contacted the couple for comment.
In fact, such a prank would be considered a criminal offense and punishable by law, as some other slimy rascals have learned the hard way.
In 2019, a Texas man named D’Adrien Anderson was caught licking a pint of Blue Bell ice cream at a local Walmart.
According to surveillance footage, Anderson eventually went back and bought the candy, but the store was forced to get rid of its entire Blue Bell selection, at considerable cost.
The man’s video was posted to Facebook, where it was viewed nearly 157,000 times before it was removed.
“This guy loves publicity, even if it’s for the wrong reason,” Jefferson County District Attorney Bob Wortham told KFDM-TV. “That can lead to bigger and worse things. If we’re going to save this guy, we have to do it with this case or he’s done for.”
Anderson pleaded guilty to criminal misconduct and was sentenced to one year in jail.
And who could forget when pop star Ariana Grande had sticky fingers and tongue? Grande, then 22, was investigated by police in 2015 after she allegedly licked several donuts on display at Wolfee Donuts in Lake Elsinore, California, while taunting store employees, saying, “I hate Americans.” . I hate America!”
According to cashier Mayra Solis, the singer never bought any of the candies she touched. Solis later told the Associated Press that the “Thank U, Next” singer was “really rude.”
Grande was forced to apologize after a protest over her apparent disrespect for the working class. “I am extremely proud to be an American and have always made it clear that I love my country,” she insisted, claiming that her actions were actually a protest against “childhood obesity” and the “food industry” in general.
