MUST-SEE VIDEO: The Australian Federal Police posts THIS video of a woman eating a MEAT PIE with a FORK and the internet goes nuts

Warning: footage may offend some true blue Aussies! - by Amy Sinclair
  • 01 Apr 2019

There are few things more Aussie than a meat pie. But when one footy fan was spotted eating the iconic Australian snack with a FORK at a recent AFL game, it even prompted the Australian Federal Police to get involved. 

Posting a video of the offending lady tucking into the pie with the fork in the crowds at the Collingwood v Richmond game last Thursday, the AFP wrote: ‘Australia - is this a crime? You decide!’

Not surprisingly, thousands of Aussies rushed to the page to give their 10 cents worth - and the comments were hilarious.

‘The real crime is there’s no tomato sauce! 😑’ says one. Added another: ‘Is that a metal fork? What sports ground hands out metal forks? Did they bring it with them? What psychopath brings a fork to a footy game? I'm confused.’

Said a third: ‘Why they didn't show the "This video contains disturbing images that may offend some viewers" disclaimer is beyond me.’

Added another: ‘I’m thinking that’s pie abuse, so definitely a punishable offence. Extra punishment for no sauce. No conscience there at all.’ Said one more: ‘I am both shocked and horrified 😲 there is no place in our society for that kind of behavior 😒’

But many rushed to the woman’s defence revealing they eat pies the same way - with others revealing their bizarre meat pie rituals as well!

Said one: ‘I eat mine like this all the time! Then I get to enjoy the pastry without the mess! This women deserve a medal!’ Added another: ‘Yes, I’m guilty. I’ve done it before. Some pies are so good, they need to be eaten as two separate meat and pastry meals.’

Added a third: ‘I peel the top off then scoop the meat up with chicken twisties once all the meats gone i then fill the pastry with twisties and eat the rest ...yeah i know weirdo 😂😂’

Whaaaaat?! Well we’re off to buy some Twisties and a pie so we can give this method a whirl. Just joking!
