Louisiana Man Licking Ice Cream
Last weekend, a Louisiana woman posted a video of a man, opening an ice cream tub, licking it and putting it back in the store freezer. “This done gotten out of hand. Now his old ass should know better,” she tweeted. Identified as the 36-year-old man, Lenise Lloyd Martin III is being charged with “unlawful posting of criminal activity for notoriety and publicity.”

Any Answers?
The ice cream licking trend has clearly got out of hand. This man, shot a video of himself, while spitting in Arizona sweet tea and putting it back on the shelf for others to purchase. However, there are no reports confirming if he was arrested or if the product was identified and removed from the store.
Girl Spitting Mouthwash Back in the Bottle
This shopper at Walmart gargled some mouthwash and spat it back on the bottle. And attempting to be a part of the sickening trend, she kept the tampered product back in the shelf.
Why on earth would anyone do such a thing? Perpetrators doing it to be a part of the viral trend clearly don't realise the legal consequences of their actions. Such practices are bad not only for the brands they are tampering with but also for the people. Law enforcement should team up with social media to track down the perps and give them their just deserts, or should we say desserts.
