Australian media personality Carrie Bickmore has found herself the target of heavy backlash after sharing what she described as a “fun” and “relaxed” parenting hack—serving food directly onto the table without plates.
In the now-viral clip, the 44-year-old radio and television host is seen pouring freshly boiled pasta straight onto a dining table—without plates—before layering on ladlefuls of meat sauce and a generous dusting of powdered parmesan cheese.
“A new way to do dinner!” she said. “I was inspired by a random post on Insta and thought I’d be a fun mum too and let the kids just eat in a more relaxed manner. They thought it was so weird but loved it.”
