Carrie Bickmore Slammed For “Offensive” Parenting Hack After Serving Pasta On Table Without Plates

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.”
