Toilet meal (便所飯, benjo-meshi) is a Japanese social phenomenon referring to the act of an individual eating a meal in a toilet room.
Normally I will happily try anything the Japanese come up with, but this is a rare miss for them.
As a germophobe: What the fuck?
Like I hear stories about kids (in the US) eating lunch in the toilet stall… like… is that actually a thing or just a myth?
Gasp because they don’t have any friends and their ostracized from the social norms that they feel they’re outside of. So they pick the most private and secluded space that they can in order to try and do the most basic thing that we need to do on a daily basis.
I’ll eat naked, in the middle of the town square long before you’ll find me eating on the toilet…
While we were in the Mojave for a two week long training boondoggle one of the other soldiers took to eating all of his meals in one of the port’o potties.
And then having a nap.
So bout three days into the exercise we’re getting ready to do hands across the desert to find the missing soldier when thankfully someone went out to bang on the shit boxes to make sure he wasn’t in one. Which he was… Having a nap.
Two days later he was med evaced, he had come down with dysentery.
The 1st sausage was fuming. Ranting about piss bottles in his humvee and one of his soldiers getting a napoleonic disease.
How was the 1st bacon? As cooked as the Sausage?
Thanks I hate it
That’s not a regular toilet though, that one has a warm water massaging jet for your nethers. That sounds like a downright pleasant way to eat lunch.
The article is kind of sweet though, universities are coming up with ways to help students who are embarrassed to eat alone and are turning to the toilets for solace.
What happened to don’t shit where you eat? But I get it somehow. Toilet sessions can get lengthy, with smart phones and social media.
Cut out the middleman, flush the food.
