Dallas-Fort Worth (WBAP/KLIF) – A Rockwall woman claims she has witnessed another person licking ice cream inside its container and putting it back on a grocery store shelf.
According to a Facebook post, the incident happened at a Rockwall Walmart, and it was reported to the store’s manager.
Several North Texans chimed in to say they don’t think this trend will last very long.
One woman says people should stop doing it; yet another said that she thought it was a social media trend .. “just kids being kids.”
The trend started last week when a girl in Lufkin licked the inside of a Blue Bell carton and put it back — police have since identified her as a minor.
Since the incident copycats have been seen on social media licking ice cream; other food tampering incidents involved a man who opened a jug of Arizona ice tea and spit in it before putting it back on the shelve.
WBAP/KLIF has reached out to the Walmart involved and the Rockwall Police Department for comment.
