Influencer's VERY rude behavior on board 10-hour flight leaves social media in uproar
A woman has been brutally slammed on social media after she filmed herself assembling a meal midway through a flight – which included 'stinky' boiled eggs. To get her through the 10-hour journey from Los Angeles to Paris, Jess Marra came prepared with several containers filled with various ingredients so she could create a healthy dinner for herself to enjoy while flying. After the 33-year-old shared footage of herself prepping the meal on the plane, she was stunned to see the clip go viral on Instagram, garnering 1.5 million views and thousands of comments filled with backlash. 'What started as a fun travel moment turned into the international egg scandal of the year,' Jess, who works in digital marketing, told What's The Jam recently. The video showed her unpacking the various ingredients and assembling a salad – but viewers criticized her for doing so on a busy flight and for including boiled eggs, which can have a pretty poignant smell. One person commented: 'New fear unlocked: I get on a plane and the person next to me starts making an egg salad.' 'Just because you can eat an egg on a flight doesn't mean you should,' another user agreed. Someone else added: 'Between the egg, the elbow jabbing into your neighbor, the salad shaking and the "influencing" I am 100 percent annoyed and I'm not on the plane. Just be a normal person and stop trying to gain attention.' 'No one likes you on this flight... no one,' wrote one viewer. Another user added: 'Sorry honey, but no. Eggs - no. Multiple Tupperware containers no. 'Assembling a salad on the plane no. It's not your kitchen, it's a tiny shared public space in which we all just try to survive.' 'Please take a kind hint from the majority of comments here and leave those boiled eggs at home next time…,' another person agreed. Someone else commented: 'Nothing wrong with [bringing your own] food but I'd be really cross if the person next to me started bringing out all of this stuff including smelly eggs and peeling avocados. 'What's wrong with a sandwich or something that doesn't require all the mixing and unpacking of ingredients? Inconsiderate.' Despite the backlash, Jess insisted that her meal didn't smell, saying she doesn't overcook the boiled eggs deliberately to avoid any odor. The rest of the meal was less offensive, consisting of salad, avocado, berries. and salad dressing – items she grabbed from her fridge for the 'last minute' flight to avoid spending on costly airport or airplane food that she doesn't enjoy. The LA-native said: 'Despite what the internet thinks, I was discreet in my window seat and kept everything low-key. 'When the flight attendant came around for meal service I politely declined and once everyone around me was settled eating, I got to work. 'No one on the flight seemed to notice or care. 'But once I posted the video on Instagram, all hell broke loose. 'The comments were brutal. 'People were yelling at me for being selfish, inconsiderate, endangering the lives of passengers, and just generally being the worst human ever. 'I was kind of in shock. Was it a little weird I assembled a salad at my seat? Sure. 'Is it the end of the world that I ate an egg on a plane? Certainly not! 'Hard boiled eggs are sold in every airport convenience store and even at Starbucks for people to eat during flights. 'Plane food has a strong odor and, many times, eggs are included in the meal service as well. 'It's not like I unwrapped a tuna melt or started microwaving salmon mid-flight! The internet really ran with it, but in reality, I'm just a hungry girl trying to eat my dinner.'

Woman berated for eating smelly meal on long-haul flight
An American woman has upset fellow travellers after she prepared a meal including boiled eggs during a long-haul flight earlier this month. Jess Marra embarked on the ten-hour journey from Los Angeles to Paris equipped with ziplock bags and containers full of prepared ingredients to assemble an alternative meal during the flight. The healthy meal choice sparked outrage online after the LA digital marketing worker shared a video of herself digging in to the questionable choice of protein. In the clip that has since gone viral, Jess can be seen sitting in the window seat as she cuts an avocado and empties salad dressing and mixed leaves into a reusable container to go alongside the boiled eggs. 'Making my own healthy dinner on a 10 hour flight bc free will exists,' text over the video read. Mortified viewers took to the comments to air their disapproval. 'Just because you can eat an egg on a flight doesn't mean you should,' one person wrote. 'Please take a kind hint from the majority of comments here and leave those boiled eggs at home next time…' another added. 'No one likes you on this flight….. no one,' a third agreed. 'New fear unlocked: I get on a plane and the person next to me starts making an egg salad,' another wrote. Jess has defended her unpopular decision, editing the post's caption just days ago to reassure her haters. 'Bc I hate plane food ✈️also i swear the SOFT BOILED egg didn't smell but will take the judgement,' the updated caption stated. The jet setter has poked fun at her viral moment during her most recent work trip, where she opted for a single-serve yoghurt and pre-package beverage for her in-flight snack. 'Today's plane snax for all my haters' the update on Instagram stories said. Jess Marra's lighthearted response to the backlash. Credit: Instagram

Woman makes ‘stinky' boiled egg dinner on packed flight
A woman has been mercilessly mocked after filming herself assembling a full meal – including boiled eggs – during a long-haul flight from Los Angeles to Paris. Jess Marra, 33, set the internet alight earlier this month after bringing a stash of prepacked containers to make a DIY on-board dinner during a 10-hour flight. 'What started as a fun travel moment turned into the international egg scandal of the year,' Jess said, after her video racked up more than 1.5 million views on Instagram and was flooded with thousands of angry comments. In the now-viral video, Jess can be seen unpacking her carefully prepped ingredients which included ziploc bags of dressing and avocado, before assembling a full-blown salad in her window seat. The LA digital marketing worker filmed herself aggressively shaking her salad and even peeling avocados in the crammed economy space. Naturally, many viewers weren't impressed – especially over her choice of protein. 'New fear unlocked: I get on a plane and the person next to me starts making an egg salad,' one horrified user wrote. 'Just because you can eat an egg on a flight doesn't mean you should,' agreed another. 'Between the egg, the elbow jabbing into your neighbour, the salad shaking and the 'influencing', I am 100 per cent annoyed and I'm not on the plane. Just be a normal person and stop trying to gain attention,' a third person fumed. Jess, however, hit back, saying she took care not to disturb anyone around her. 'Despite what the internet thinks, I was discreet in my window seat and kept everything low-key,' she said. 'When the flight attendant came around for meal service I politely declined, and once everyone around me was settled eating, I got to work. No one on the flight seemed to notice or care.' 'The comments were brutal,' Jess said. 'People were yelling at me for being selfish, inconsiderate, endangering the lives of passengers, and just generally being the worst human ever. I was kind of in shock.' She insists the eggs weren't actually smelly, explaining she deliberately undercooks them to avoid any odour. 'Was it a little weird I assembled a salad at my seat? Sure,' she admitted. 'Is it the end of the world that I ate an egg on a plane? Certainly not!' She was quick to point out the double standards, saying eggs are a common ingredient in plane meals anyway. 'Hard boiled eggs are sold in every airport convenience store and even at Starbucks for people to eat during flights,' she said. 'Plane food has a strong odour and, many times, eggs are included in the meal service as well. It's not like I unwrapped a tuna melt or started microwaving salmon mid-flight!' In the end, Jess says she was just trying to enjoy a decent meal on a tight schedule. 'The internet really ran with it,' she said, 'but in reality, I'm just a hungry girl trying to eat my dinner.'

Passenger slammed over ‘stinky' in-flight dinner prep: ‘Straight to jail'
They didn't think it was so egg-cellent. A female influencer is being ripped online after prepping a meal on a plane — which reportedly included a helping of 'smelly' boiled eggs. An Instagram video of her demo amassed over 1.3 million comments and oodles of angry comments before getting taken down, Jam Press reported. 4 Marra enjoys her homemade meal. Jam Press/@kitschenista 'What started as a fun travel moment turned into the international egg scandal of the year,' Jess Marra, 33, told the outlet while recalling her cooking demo at 30,000 feet. The Los Angeles-based influencer — who goes by @kitschenista on social media — had reportedly been flying from Los Angeles, US to Paris, France, and wanted to bring something along to tide her over during the 10-hour trip. As she was averse to airplane food, however, she decided to bring several containers filled with various ingredients so she could enjoy a healthful meal in-flight — like a sky-high Sweetgreen. 'When the flight attendant came around for meal service, I politely declined and once everyone around me was settled eating, I got to work,' she told Jam Press. In a video reposted to TikTok, Marra is seen whipping out a bag of arugula, Ziplocs with an avocado and salad dressing, which she tossed at her seat. 4 'People were yelling at me for being selfish, inconsiderate, endangering the lives of passengers, and just generally being the worst human ever,' said Marra. Jam Press/@kitschenista 4 Marra puts dressing on her salad. Jam Press/@kitschenista She also opened a container of boiled eggs and celery and took a bite. The Californian's mid-flight meal prep did not go over-easy with the viewers. 'Ya eggs/ fish in a small space like that makes you hella disrespectful,' said one critic. 'If you wanna bring dinner heck ya but like cmon girl.' 'THE EGGGGGGGGG straight to jail,' said another while one wrote, 'hard-boiled eggs smell on a long haul plane.' 'New fear unlocked: I get on a plane and the person next to me starts making an egg salad,' said another under the Instagram post. 'Between the egg, the elbow jabbing into your neighbor, the salad shaking and the 'influencing' I am 100% annoyed and I'm not on the plane,' critiqued one detractor. 'Just be a normal person and stop trying to gain attention.' 4 Marra insisted that the eggs were soft-boiled and therefore not odiferous. Jam Press/@kitschenista One viewer wrote, 'No one likes you on this flight….. no one.' However, Marra insisted in the comments that the eggs didn't smell as they were 'soft-boiled.' She said that she was 'shocked' over the 'brutal' comments. 'People were yelling at me for being selfish, inconsiderate, endangering the lives of passengers, and just generally being the worst human ever,' said the content creator. Marra found the reaction overzealous considering that was 'discreet' with her DIY dinner service, adding that 'no one on the flight seemed to notice or care.' She argued that the criticism was unfounded given that boiled eggs are sold at every airport convenience store, Starbucks and even on the airplane, whose meal options she felt naturally had a 'strong odor' even if they didn't feature eggs. 'Was it a little weird I assembled a salad at my seat? Sure,' Marra declared. 'Is it the end of the world that I ate an egg on a plane? Certainly not!' In a similar incident in October, flight attendants allegedly raised a stink after a fitness influencer and Playboy cover model brought a smelly egg-rich lunch into an airplane's first-class cabin because she was on a strict diet.
