I’m trolled for my extreme diet snack recipe – people say it’s wild but I love it
MANY people will go to great lengths to lose weight or stay trim, but one woman’s zero-calorie snack has raised some eyebrows.
Mother-of-five Meaghan shared the recipe for the “snack,” which she says she used to eat frequently — but wide-eyed critics insist she should just give in and have a bag of potato chips.
Meaghan is a digital content creator with a TikTok account that boasts over 147k followers and focuses on sharing food recipes.
She recently took to the platform to share a controversial diet recipe.
“I’m going to show you all a snack that I used to eat all the time when I was younger,” she told viewers. “And especially when I was pregnant.”
Her inspiration to revisit the snack came from her daughters.
“I haven’t had it in so long,” she revealed. “Me and the girls were talking about weird snacks.”
First, she instructed viewers to get a cup of crushed ice.
She poured the rice vinegar over her cup of crushed ice.
“I used to use just plain white vinegar,” she said. “But this is all I have — rice vinegar.”

Finally, she seasoned the vinegar-ice mixture.
“We’re going to add some salt and pepper,” she added. “Mix it up.”
She took a spoonful of her mixture, to the dismay of viewers.
“We have like a vinegar, salt, pepper snowball,” she said. “Mmm, yes.”
People expressed shock towards the mother and her less-than-appetizing recipe, asking if she was “OK” and saying they thought they’d “heard it all.”
“This is like 20 steps worse than almond mom,” a TikToker wrote in a duet with the mother.
“Almond mom” is a reference to mothers who encourage their children to adopt restrictive eating habits, such as eating one almond to curb hunger.
Other commenters criticized Meaghan’s fiber and nutrient-lacking recipe, with one urging her: “Just eat the salt and vinegar chips.”
“I’m not sure if that can be called a snack. Maybe a drink or a snowcone,” said one more.
“So seasoned water,” another critic wrote.
“I used to crave vinegar and I would crave ice (low iron),” Meaghan wrote in a comment. “So one day I just mixed the two.”
