TikTok onion peeling hack put to the test

Never in my wildest dreams have I ever thought of slicing up an onion with a potato peeler. But here we are. And we can thank random TikTok videos for getting us here. 

In the same way that I found the ‘clever’ way to cut an onion with no tears, I stumbled upon a wild way of slicing an onion into thin strips. Perfect for salads and not too thick to ruin the salad. 

It sounds like another useless hack, but I’m all in!

How to peel an onion with a potato peeler

The hack is as simple as it seems. Use a potato peeler the same way you would to peel a potato but apply it to a peeled onion. 

Cut the onion in half first, to ensure you have a flat surface to work with rather than a rounded edge. Then simply slice down on one half of the onion and in a matter of seconds, you’ll have a bowl full of thinly sliced onions. 

Fry them up, toss them in a salad.. do whatever you like – they’re your onions. 

The verdict is in and so are the critics

Understandably, the hack was met with a little bit of skepticism. 

Liz Macri, Kidspot’s Kitchen Editor, was the first to voice the fact that she wasn’t convinced.

“I am doubtful that this would work well. I don’t think the onion would stay together or be evenly chopped. It would also bruise easily on the edges. I’ll pass…”

Mom Nama also wasn’t buying it: “This looks good in theory but I think it would take more effort than what it’s worth. I’d prefer to just whip out the knife,” she said. 

Does it actually work? 

Well, putting after putting the clever hack to the test, I can confirm that both predictions above are not far off for how things ended up for me in the kitchen.

To give you a quick, answer the hack DOES work!

The peeler does slice the onion well but it was a bit of a messy experience. As the image above shows, the thickness of each slice varied and at times the onion got stuck in the peeler, which resulted in me having to unpick random bits of onion. 

So yes, it did work. But no, it wasn’t exactly easier than just slicing it up the good old-fashioned way – with a knife and a trusty chopping board. 

Perhaps it was the type of peeler I had, or perhaps it was just another dodgy hack that tricked us. You decide…

X-ray reveals bizarre find in passenger’s bag

It’s not something you would expect to find in someone’s carry-on – which is why US security authorities were left (understandably) shocked when a live cat showed up on the X-ray machine.

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) staff did a double take when the feline showed up on security screening at Norfolk International Airport in Virginia on Friday.

In the US, travelers can take cats or small dogs in pet carry cases in the cabin of the plane, however in this case the cat had wrongly been sent through the X-ray machine instead of being taken out of the bag first.

The TSA released the X-ray of the cat in its official Twitter feed.

“Just when you thought it was safe to bring your pet cat on a trip … A traveller left their pet cat in its travel carrying case at a @TSA checkpoint this morning at @NorfolkAirport,” TSA spokesperson Lisa Farbstein wrote in the caption alongside the snap.

While you may think common sense prevails in such situations, Ms Farbstein had to warn travelers not to send their pets through the X-ray machine, while adding a cheeky pun.

“Attention pet owners: Please do not send your pet through the X-ray unit. Cat-astrophic mistake!” she wrote.

The post has attracted plenty of attention with many concerned about the welfare of the animal.

Ms Farbstein confirmed both the traveller and the cat were required to go through the screening the proper way after the TSA agents saw the X-ray image.

“The proper way being to remove the cat from the travel bag,” she added.

She also tweeted a video posted to Instagram by the TSA about the proper way to travel with a pet through the TSA checkpoint, where owners take the pet out of the carry case before the bag is X-rayed.

She said travelers with cats can request screening to occur in a private room, just in case the owner has a runner on their hands.


Last year, TSA found a pet dog in someone’s backpack.

The Instagram video starts out with an image of the cat’s X-ray with the words, “Don’t do this,” underneath.

It then shows a man remove his dog from a pet carrier and walk through the TSA checkpoint.

Ms Farbstein told CNN that the individual either did not know to remove the pet from the carry-on travel case before going through the checkpoint, or forgot to do so.

“When that happens, they have to start all over again, meaning that the passenger and the cat have to start over at the checkpoint.

“The passenger needs to remove the pet from a carry case and carry it through the walk-through metal detector or walk the pet through the metal detector on a leash.”

It’s not the first time a passenger has made this mistake.

Last December TSA found a dog in a passenger’s carry-on.

The owner of the dog had reportedly neglected to inform the screeners of her pet before putting the bag on the conveyor belt.

And the month before an orange tabby cat was found in a checked bag at JFK Airport in New York.

In that incident, the owner of the bag was unaware of his feline stowaway, which had secretly climbed into the suitcase before he zipped it up.

Influencer wears $5 dress to Grammys pre-party

She looked like a million dollars — in a $5 dress.

Influencer Sarah Perl, who grew up in Bensonhurst, hoped to one day attend Fashion Week — and did for the first time this year.

To prepare for her trip to the Big Apple, the now-Los Angeles resident packed a bunch of her mother’s clothes — and a bright orange $5 dress she bought on the clearance rack at a boutique in Santa Monica— which she wore to a Grammys pre-party last month.

“Everyone comes to these fashion shows, front row in like designer, decked out in Prada, Gucci,” Perl, 22, told The Post.

“And everyone’s walking around with the microphone … ‘Who are you wearing?’ And I’m like, ‘Zara … and I’m gonna return it tomorrow.’ That’s just who I am.”


Perl posed in her $5 dress at the Grammys pre-party prior to Fashion Week.

Perl always wore hand-me-downs in her youth, and can’t shake the habit of buying cheap and second-hand outfits.

“Growing up, fashion was never my thing, because I just couldn’t afford clothes,” she said in a TikTok video she posted during Fashion Week.

However, she now has the means to fill her closet with luxury brands. She earns $40,000 a month, mainly from selling her pre-recorded classes, which are based on the belief that your thoughts create your reality.

Her online road to success started in November 2020, when she was a college sophomore double-majoring in education and history. She started a TikTok page under the name HotHigh Priestess, doing tarot card readings.

In just one year, she had 1 million followers. Now it’s more than 2 million.

“The first videos I posted instantly got millions of views. It was … absolutely unreal,” she explained.

A so-called spiritual influencer, she gives others “the belief that they can achieve more, they can accomplish anything despite their circumstances.”

“Because, you know, given the way I grew up … this story that I was always fed was one of struggle … People like you don’t make it out,” she said. “So it’s always been my goal to show people that they can make it out because I did.”

She first left Brooklyn to attend a prestigious university in the Boston area, with the help of financial aid, taking out loans, and working two jobs.


As a college sophomore, Perl started a TikTok account and now has more than 2 million followers.
Sarah Perl

“I was going to college with so many rich people … and I was in a program, it was literally for poor kids. And I was just looking at these kids who were getting college paid for when I was going thousands of dollars in debt,” she recalled. “My parents didn’t even pay for my textbooks.”

Her legion of loyal social media followers include people from her Title I high school.

“I actually just recently got a message from a girl from my high school who was like, ‘You know, I don’t even think you understand how much we needed to hear this story,’” she said.

Even the ones who once bullied her reach out in support.

“There’s people from the past who used to bully me and are like, ‘Oh, I love you,’” she said. “And I’m like, ‘Well, that’s funny.’”

Tom DeBlass ‘to help’ school bullying victims with new program

Last month, a disturbing video of a 9-year-old girl being beaten by a 15-year-old in Florida emerged on the internet — and it prompted retired MMA fighter and world-renowned Brazilian jiu jitsu teacher Tom DeBlass to put out a call to his 268,000 Instagram followers.

“I posted on social media asking if my followers could connect me to this girl’s mother,” DeBlass told The Post. The fighter hoped to offer the victim martial-arts training.

Then the bullying crisis hit closer to home. Adriana Kuch, a 14-year-old student at Central Regional High School, DeBlass’ alma mater in Berkeley Township, NJ, was beaten up in the hallway at school. Footage of the attack was shared on social media, and she killed herself days later.

“I can’t even understand the level of meanness,” said DeBlass, 40, of Kuch’s attack. “I always want to help, but I am getting sick of saying I am sick of bullying. I said, I have to do something about this.”

Last month, the father of two teamed up with fellow Brazilian jiu jitsu teacher Shawn Fowler to start Buddies over Bullies, a nationwide antibullying outreach organization that aims to provide “sensible solutions for those being bullied.” DeBlass hopes to connect victims with free jiu jiutsu training and therapy. He will also lead education programs about self defense, coping skills and empowerment.

So far, the New Jersey resident has helped 10 kids in different parts of the country get free jiu jiutsu training. And more than 100 schools have registered to be part of the programs after DeBlass launched a website earlier this week.

Most recently, he is working with Kailinh Wiley, a Washington teen who was beaten by a classmate that was captured on video last week, and trying to get her training.

He did eventually connect with Jennifer Berrios, whose daughter was in the viral video out of Florida. Berrios’ 10-year-old son was also a victim. Now, the two kids are in their second week of jiu jiutsu, courtesy of DeBlass.

“I’m probably an emotional mom, but every time I see them out on the mat, I am crying. They needed those skills. They are learning self defense,” Berrios, 30, told The Post. “What Tom did was amazing.”

She said her son is more confident while her daughter is getting structure in terms of how to better defend herself.

“Kids shouldn’t be scared at school. What Tom is doing should be a wake-up call to schools, too. How many stories do we have to hear? This is happening to so many children,” said Berrios, whose kids are now doing virtual schooling at home.

DeBlass has always vocal about bullying, self defense and mental health. In his 2021 memoir, he revealed that he had planned to kill himself in college and had been been pushed around as a kid.

“I know what it’s like to feel hopeless. When I see kids who don’t have those coping skills yet, the papa bear in me comes out. My heart breaks for them,” said DeBlass.

When he started sharing his intentions to start Buddies over Bullies, his inbox filled up with people across the country wanting to be a part of his initiative.

“If I stood up, I knew I’d have support from people. It’s really moving now. The jiu jitsu community has really come together,” said DeBlass. He said he has a network of former military, law enforcement and even some members of motorcycle clubs involved.

Mitch Aguiar, a former Navy Seal who owns Violet Hippie jiu jitsu in Virginia, has offered free training at his academy. “Tom reached out, and I said, ‘I’m in.’ Jiu jitsu is such an effective defense, and it builds confidence,” Aguiar told The Post.

DeBlass said he’s willing to go the extra mile. Even if it means personally intervening with schools and parents if situations aren’t resolved — and abuse continues.

“The last-case scenario is talking to the parents of a bully,” said DeBlass. “But these kids [who’ve been bullied] are taking their lives. They feel like they have no support.”

I’m a Starbucks barista — We’ve been out of ‘espresso and dignity’ for 2 months

Where have you bean?

A Starbucks barista on TikTok is claiming her store has been out of espresso for two months — meaning that mochas, cappuccinos and lattes are a no-go.

TikTok user @toreeisnotdead took to the social media platform last week to share her “help” message in a clip that has served more than 325,000 views.

In the video, the barista shows herself standing at the register, with a sign above her head that reads “No espresso but…,” along with a big red stop sign.

Below the stop sign, the store lists the items available for purchase, such as cold brew, chai tea, iced tea, refreshers and more.


“Pistachio your way,” but apparently not espresso any way at this Starbucks store.
toreeisnotdead/Tiktok

“Happy 2 month anniversary of still no espresso 🤎,” the TikToker wrote of her store in white text over the clip. She appears to be based in New Jersey.

The Post reached out to Starbucks and the TikTok creator for comment.

In another shot, the barista shows a long tally of customers reportedly asking, “Omg it’s still broken?” On a white board, a list of items the store is allegedly out of include “espresso, dignity and cinnamon.”

In the comments section, several employees and customers offered their sorrowful stories of missing restaurant items or non-working equipment.

“One time our water was down and all we could serve was food😭,” one user laughed.

Another alleged, “My Starbucks before I moved had no espresso over Christmas holiday shopping (inside target) and in late Jan still broken. I still think about them🫡.”

“Wow the Starbucks I went to last weekend ONLY had espresso drinks and cold brew,” someone else disclosed.

Another viewer divulged, “Once both our coffee brewer and our espresso machine was down at the same time for about a week 😪.”

Others found the barista’s misfortune amusing, with one user even joking about “realistic barista TikTok.”

“Finally on realistic barista tok,” the person typed.

A different user confessed, “As a barista that isn’t religious, i’m praying for y’all-.”

In another video posted to her TikTok account, @toreeisnotdead claimed that a few days earlier, the store had also run out of coffee.

This is not the first time Starbucks baristas have taken to TikTok to air their struggles. In January, one barista revealed she mistook a customer for a dog when taking an order at the drive-thru, while another shared she had been making decaf coffee for three months instead of serving up the regular brew.

This married couple writes romance novels together

Writing is hard — and so is marriage! Combining the two would be a particular challenge not for the faint of heart, but that’s exactly what Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka regularly do. 

The married co-authors (and former high-school sweethearts) have written 7 novels together. Their newest title is the adult romance “Do I Know You?” (Berkley). It’s the story of Eliza and Graham, a wedded couple in a marital rut who hope that a getaway to a romantic resort will reignite a matrimonial spark.   

But when a hotel screw-up and a mistaken guest confuse Eliza and Graham as complete strangers, the unhappy couple see an opportunity. They spend the week as singles, pretending to meet for the first time and again experiencing the ups and downs of dating one another. It’s a chance to see if they remember why they once fell in love. 

The novel was inspired — what isn’t these days!?! — by COVID-19, with Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka spending the first years of their own marriage trapped in Coronavirus quarantine.  


The couple’s latest novel was inspired by COVID-19.

Austin says, “We were 2 married people cooped up in a house together. The spark for the book was a couple who knew each other too well and had to learn to break out of that … something intimately inspired by spending the first years of our marriage stuck in isolation.”  

Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka love working together, but the writing process is not without its struggles. While “Do I Know You” has alternating chapters told from the perspectives of Emily and Graham, the married co-authors write every word of their books in tandem.   

“We don’t trade off who writes what. We write it together in the same room, speaking to each other,” Austin explains. 

“Every sentence, which is why there’s always conflict!” Emily laughs. 

It’s exactly as hard as it sounds, they say. 

“We write books together, which is very difficult. It’s great, we love sharing everything, but the work is the #1 source of conflict in our marriage,” Emily says. 

Austin shrugs.  “It’s a very difficult endeavor, and it looks like fights plenty of the time.”

New Mercedes-Benz has TikTok livestream for influencers

This car will be fueling Influencers’ clout.

Mercedes-Benz revealed a brand-new E-series sedan on Wednesday that would allow drivers to film TikTok videos and access other apps while on the road, reports The Washington Post.

“Customers can look forward to a particularly immersive entertainment experience in the new E‑Class,” Mercedes-Benz said in a statement. “Music, games and streaming content can be experienced in the car with almost all the senses.”

TikTok also issued its own statement.

“As we aim to expand that experience for our users, we’re excited to partner with Mercedes-Benz to introduce immersive in-car entertainment, which will give our community more opportunities to enjoy the content they love,” said TikTok’s director of distribution business development David Saidden.

According to the car company, the new automobile will feature massive touch screens that will allow passengers to watch movies, tv shows, play games or explore various apps.

Vehicle technology specialist Tom Leggett explained how the driver would be protected from being distracted on the road.

“The Mercedes E-Class will be fitted with the latest Driver Monitoring System to prevent the risk of distraction for the driver,” explained Leggett to the Daily Mail. “A camera (usually in the driver’s display) analyses the driver’s eye movements and can detect whether the eyes are looking at the front passenger screen.”

“If this is the case the brightness of the passenger screen is reduced, and a warning issued to the driver,” continued Leggett.”Additionally, the passenger display has ‘dual light control (DLC)’ that prevents dynamic content such as films from being seen peripherally by the person behind the wheel.”

The car would also allow drivers to take selfies — while the car is stationary.


“Customers can look forward to a particularly immersive entertainment experience in the new E‑Class,” Mercedes-Benz said in a statement. “Music, games and streaming content can be experienced in the car with almost all the senses.”

“When the vehicle is stationary, the driver can participate in online video conferences via e.g. Webex, and take personal photos and videos,” stated the car giant.

The car also allows drivers to experience music in a whole new way.

“Pieces of music and the sound from films or apps can be, felt and now also ‘seen’,” said Mercedes-Benz. “For example, fast sequences of beats can cause rapid light changes, while flowing rhythms can create softly merging lighting moods.”


According to Mercedes, the vehicle will be installed with various programs to ensure the driver’s safety.

The car also boasts “soothing sounds,” “activating light” and “mobilizing massage” and an anti-motion sickness program for those who TikTok on the go.

Several online users rolled in with their own opinions.

“Seems like a bad idea,” tweeted one person.

“No thank you,” said another.

“Maybe giant interactive screens and other distracting features shouldn’t be installed in two-ton death machines,” chimed in a third person.

Mercedes-Benz’s latest creation is set to drive off the assembly line this summer in Europe before making its way to the US in the fall.

The announcement comes just as policymakers are seeking to potentially ban apps like TikTok, citing threats to national security.

‘Creepy’ Cookie Monster terrorizing town, cops warn: ‘Steer clear’

Can you tell me how to get far, far away from Sesame Street?

Santa Cruz residents have been instructed not to engage with a man dressing as the Cookie Monster, who police say has been yelling obscenities and taunting locals enjoying a stroll along the California coastal city’s boardwalk.

Santa Cruz police say the “Sesame Street”‘ wannabe has been harassing parents to pay him to pose in photos with their children.

“We are getting calls from people who say he is ‘creepy,’” police spokeswoman Joyce Blaschke told local affiliate KRON. “Based on his history, we advise the public to not engage with this individual. Steer clear from him.”

Blaschke added, “I would not take a photo with him.”

Santa Cruz police confirmed to The Post the suspect’s name is Adam Sandler, 59, no relation to the “Uncut Gems” star.

The Post reported in 2013 that a man by the name of Dan Sandler shouted anti-Semitic diatribes at NYC tourists while dressed as the red “Sesame Street” muppet Elmo.

He got slapped with one year in jail after threatening to spread false rumors tying the Girl Scouts to a “rape camp” in Cambodia.

“I accept the fact I committed a crime, but I’m not in anyway sorry to the Girl Scouts organization,” he said in Manhattan Criminal Court at the time.

The Post reported he had also been arrested in San Francisco, where prosecutors said he grabbed a kid while panhandling in his furry Elmo costume.

‘I’d be a runaway bride!’

She’ll be milking this story ’til death do her part.

A woman has gone viral after revealing that a groom was busted allegedly being breastfed by his mother on his wedding day.

Wedding planner Georgie Mitchell relayed the tawdry tale during an episode of “The Unfiltered Bride” podcast, which she co-hosts with pal Beth Smith.

Mitchell didn’t witness the shocking mother-son moment herself, instead claiming she heard about the nuptial nightmare from a make-up artist named Jenny.

“Jenny says to me, ‘I did a wedding the other day and you’ll never guess what happened,’” Mitchell stated in an apparently since-deleted TikTok clip about the alleged incident. “The bride needed to go to the toilet just before the ceremony. She walked into the toilet, and what she saw was enough to end a wedding.”


The bride reportedly busted her soon-to-be-husband in the bathroom with his mom.

“What do you think she saw?” Mitchell asked co-host Smith, who subsequently gave a number of guesses.

She theorized that the groom was cheating or doing drugs, to which Mitchell responded: “Worse. He was being breastfed by his mom.”

Smith gasped at the revelation, stating: “Sorry, what? Why is his mom still producing milk?”

“She’s obviously been doing it continuously,” Mitchell responded before asking her co-host whether she would still marry the man if she was the bride.

“Would you call off the wedding? Everyone is in the room waiting. You definitely wouldn’t kiss when they say, ‘You can kiss the groom,’” the podcaster quipped before bursting into laughter.

A video recording of the podcast was shared to TikTok, where it quickly went viral, racking up more than 768,000 views and a load of stunned responses.

“Took ‘mommy’s boy’ to a whole new level,” one viewer joked.

“I thought you were gonna say that the groom was dead — but this was worse!” another horrified person declared.

Meanwhile, other traumatized women said they would have dumped the husband-to-be at the altar.

“I’d be a runaway bride so fast,” one declared.

While Mitchell didn’t disclose whether the bride-to-be actually went ahead with the wedding, The Post has reached out to Mitchell to get the answer.

Food additives banned in Europe are ‘certainly’ making Americans sick: experts

Everyone loves bread, but it could be a silent killer – and not for the reason you’d think.

Experts warn that an additive not restricted in the US could be making Americans sick. Potassium bromate, the sneaky ingredient in bread that strengthens the dough, is banned from food products in Europe, China and India due to it being a suspected carcinogen.

Erik Millstone, an expert on food additives, claimed that such additives are “almost certainly” causing avoidable illnesses, such as cancer, in Americans.

“There is evidence that it may be toxic to human consumers, that it may even either initiate or promote the development of tumors,” the University of Sussex in England professor told CBS News, adding that European regulations are more restrictive due to food safety diligence.

The Post has reached out to the Food and Drug Administration for comment.

But potassium bromate isn’t the only potentially toxic chemical in our store-bought products. Other substances banned in Europe and allowed in the US are titanium dioxide, brominated vegetable oil, azodicarbonamide and propylparaben.

Last year, a consumer sued Mars, Inc., over complaints that Skittles contained titanium dioxide, which is used to enhance color. While the lawsuit was dismissed, there have been studies that question the chemical’s safety.

According to Healthline, titanium dioxide is considered safe in the US to be used in food, due to its limited amounts. Additionally, the chemical is used in food packaging, sunscreen and cosmetics, which a 2019 study concluded does “not present any health risk when applied on the skin.”

But in 2021, the European Food Safety Authority declared the food additive was “no longer considered safe” amidst health concerns.

Brominated vegetable oil is also one of the additives banned across the pond but allowed in American markets. According to the Chicago Tribune, it’s the reason tourists won’t find Mountain Dew in Europe.

Health concerns are centered around one of its components, bromine, due to its ability to irritate the skin and mucous membranes, according to the Mayo Clinic. However, symptoms – such as memory loss and skin and nerve issues – typically occur in soda enthusiasts who guzzle more than 2 liters a day.

Millstone said that many Americans are probably unaware of the chemicals they’re exposed to daily, especially in their own pantries.

“They probably just think, ‘Well, if it’s available or it’s in the store, it’s probably fine,’” he said. 

The FDA told CBS News in a statement that they are always reviewing the safety of food and any new information that surfaces. However, they noted that potassium bromate, when used correctly, becomes harmless during the food production process, although it’s not guaranteed that all of the chemical will convert to an innocuous substance.

Earlier this month, a new study suggested that the colorful chemicals used in popular food dyes could have adverse health effects on consumers’ guts. Researchers from Cornell and Binghamton University found that common coloring agents can wreak havoc on the digestive tract.
