An Australian influencer caused a stir on social media after she revealed the outrageous price she paid for a takeaway sandwich and a bowl of avocado toast at a cafe in Perth.
Mea Jasmin, who posted a TikTok video, noted that the national cost of living was a joke.
The two meals she had consumed cost around $40 each.
One of the sandwiches featured sliced tomatoes, smashed avocados, and eggplant between two bread pieces, while the other had smashed avocados on both sides.
In her video, Mea stated that she was not going to talk about the incident. However, she noted that she ordered a smashed avocado sandwich.
She then stated that she paid $40 for the vegan eggplant sandwich and that she was hoping that it would taste “amazing.”
The video, which had been viewed over 150,000 times, attracted over 600 comments.
The main sentiment of the post was that Mea was the one who should have paid for the breakfast meal earlier.
Mea was asked why she decided to spend $40 on a sandwich, and she noted that she did not see the price when she ordered.
She also said that the food was shocking, and she was disappointed that the new owners of the cafe had changed the menu.
Mea concluded that everyone should get what they deserve, regardless of how it looks.
One user stated that Mea should refrain from complaining about excessive spending.
Others suggested that she could have made both of her meals at home, as the cost would have been much less.
