There’s More Outrage Over a Teen Ice Cream Licker Than Blue Bell’s Listeria Outbreak | Eater

"In late June a viral video showed a teenage girl in the store’s freezer aisle licking the surface of ice cream from a half-gallon tub of Blue Bell, replacing the lid, and returning the tub to the shelf; the clip prompted swift and severe public condemnation, with officials calling the act a crime and police posting photos of themselves guarding freezer aisles. Many demanded arrest and jail time amid fears the stunt was meant to spread illness, and social‑media attention produced clout‑chasing copycats and a fake Instagram confession. Authorities later apprehended the girl and revealed she is a juvenile, meaning she will be handled in the juvenile system rather than facing a possible second‑degree felony for tampering with a consumer product." - Jenny G.
