People are divided over whether this supermarket habit is gross or not
A woman has started a debate around shopping etiquette, with many calling her habit "gross". During an episode of the Australian cooking show My Kitchen Rules, contestant Patricija was required to pick up the ingredients for a Lithuanian dish she was preparing. One segment shows Patricija shopping for shallots, accidentally dropping one on the supermarket floor before simply putting it back on the shelf. Many viewers turned to social media with their takes, with one calling it "just gross". "I know we're supposed to wash our produce when we get it home from the supermarket, but no one does it," they added. Another said the "right thing to do is to take it to a staff member and tell them it fell on the floor". Meanwhile, a third jumped to her defence, confessing: "I put it back. If I damaged it beyond sellable I'd show it to the produce guy and tell him I dropped it. Then move on with my shopping." In other shopping etiquette news, one woman shared the shocking moment she found what appeared to be used boxers on a rack in a clothing shop. "Gross," she said in her viral TikTok clip. "Rather than leaving them there, I just did everyone a favour and threw them away, they didn’t belong here. I did notify a staff [member] of what I found and they thanked me for throwing it away." One person commented: "That is so nice of you for taking it out of the racks, a lot of people would just leave it." Another added: "Wait, you take the award for the number one best samaritan."

Kourtney Kardashian reveals who's in the 'Not Kourtney' group chat after clash with Kim
Kourtney Kardashian has shut down Kim Kardashian's claims that her friends are in an anti-Kourtney group chat. On the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kourtney called Kim a "narcissist," before Kim claimed, "All of your friends call us complaining." "Whether you think they're the ones going to you, they're all coming to us on the side, saying the opposite to us," Kim continued. "We're all confused, and we're on a group chat labelled 'Not Kourtney' so we know, and have to funnel what your friends are saying to us, and have to figure out why you're such a different person and why you have this vendetta." Kourtney has since taken to Instagram to clear the air that her friends are not involved. In a screenshot posted to her story, Kourtney's friends Allie Rizzo Sartiano and Simon Huck said "trolls" are attacking them for Kim's claims. "Should I soft launch the YASS Kourtney group chat?" Sartiano wrote in a text message, to which Kourtney later responded with crying laughing face emojis. "OMG please! These trolls keep DM’ing me accusing me of being on the other chat," Huck responded. "I’m like, if only they knew our anxiety about meaningless, endless chit chat," Sartiano said, adding that the alleged 'Not Kourtney' chat "didn't exist." "I mean over a martini we will debrief, but dang for a group chat that didn’t exist I am fidgeting," Sartiano added. "Kim threw us all under the bus when there was not one actual friend on the chat," Huck quipped. Kourtney later confirmed who was in the chat by responding to a fan's comment under a post of her baby shower. "Are those friends on the ‘not Kourtney group chat’ Cause if so we don’t need them there," one fan wrote, to which the Poosh founder responded: "No the members of that chat are namely Kim, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie.

Tourists slam wax museum for dodgy celebrity figures
Tourists have slammed a wax museum with dodgy Cristiano Ronaldo and Elton John models among those on display. The questionable lookalikes also include Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and Mark Zuckerberg. Visitors to the Sopot Wax Museum tourist attraction have been left “disappointed” or in hysterics. Portuguese ace Ronaldo is still in a Real Madrid kit despite leaving the Spanish giants five years ago. He has played for Juventus and Man United since and is currently with All Nassr. Elton looks nothing like the retired Rocketman. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie – who divorced seven years ago – are also in the exhibition. Gangnam Style singer PSY makes an appearance – 11 years on from his one-hit-wonder. And Chiquinho Boca Grande – who entered the Guinness Book of World Records in 2010 for his 17cm mouth – also has his own statue. Other waxworks look a world away from their supposed famous faces. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg donned a curlier-looking hairstyle. Lord of the Rings character Gandalf bears little resemblance to actor Ian McKellen. Other wax works at the Sopot Wax Museum in the town of Sopot, near Gdańsk, Poland include Michael Jackson and Jennifer Lopez. Rihanna and Lady Gaga also feature. Brit Phil, who visited last month said: “Having read other reviews about the museum, we didn't know what to expect but decided to visit as we had nothing else to do. “If this is supposed to be Sopot's answer to Madame Tussauds museum, that is stretching the truth too far. “It was more like ‘The Hammer House Of Horrors’.” One tourist said: “Very poor and disappointing exhibition. “The place is very small with only a few images that mostly do not look like themselves.” Another tourist said: “Kids will enjoy it but if you’ve been to a wax museum before like the one in London you won’t be impressed.” Livid Maria said: “I read the reviews before I went here so I was prepared for the worst, that was why we went here as well. “It was not the figures that disappointed me it was the fact that all. “These figures of Einstein, trump and famous persons were not there. “I don’t know if it was because they were renovating but that was very disappointing because we looked so much forward to it. “We only paid 15 zloty for students so that was not too bad. “It was 20 zloty for adults. “Would not recommend.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Pastor enters cage full of lions to prove he's protected by God
A pastor locked himself in a cage with three lions to demonstrate his ‘divine protection’ like the biblical story of Daniel. The religious leader even invited his congregation to the animal park to witness the stunt. According to local media, the pastor, whose identity is still unknown, wanted to prove that “nothing can happen to a man of God”. The clip shows the pastor, seen wearing a bright blue suit, stroking the growling lions in their enclosure in Nigeria. At one point, he even puts his arm in one lion’s mouth before looking confidently at the camera. It appears as though the Nigerian pastor was recreating the biblical story of Daniel, who was thrown into a lion’s den and came out unscathed thanks to the hand of God. After the footage went viral, Kenyan MP Ronald Karauri, 45, offered to pay for the pastor to be sent to the Maasai Mara National Reserve to try the stunt with wild lions. The MP said: “I volunteer to take him to the Maasai Mara please, all expenses paid. “We look for the lions and he can go walk with them.” One local commented: “I challenge him to do that at Maasai Mara!” Another said: “Those are not lions, they are lion cubs. Big difference.” Someone else wrote: “Oh Yeah! Lemme bring my dog and lock him up with it for one minute.” Another local suggested: “He went in just after they were fed.” Erik remarked: “Why are the growls added over the natural soundtrack?” Bill commented: “They should have taken him to the wild lions at the Kenyan park, those lions were given drugs.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
