Who Thought It Would Be Funny Using Bug Spray On Produce?

This fool sprayed bug spray on open food products inside an Arizona Walmart.

Winners and losers of 2024.

Only in America.

Not Florida.

Arizona.

You can't fix stupid.

Can we do a Darwin Award for the most stupidest people on the planet?

You can't change minds!

You are completely trapped in stupid.

You are wrapped and emboldened in stupid.

Y'all voted for this.

Charles Smith, 27 of Phoenix decided to make a social media prank that was extremely dangerous. He literally stole Hot Shot Flea and Bedbug spray off a Walmart rack to spray on produce and open heated food. 

Only an idiot sprays bananas with bug spray.

What is so damn ignorant was the man filmed himself doing it for YouTube, TikTok and X. He claims to make nearly $10,000 doing social media postings.

Somehow, I just don't see why it would be smart for him to even continue knowing he literally tried to poison people, criminally damage property, shoplift and intentionally dispose of criminal tools.

Smith on Saturday in connection with the incident that happened on Thursday at the megastore at Stapley Drive and Baseline Road.

Mesa police said they found out about the video showing the items getting sprayed on Friday.

Police said Smith entered the store with plans to film social media pranks, but he instead grabbed a can of Hot Shot Ultra Bed Bug and Flea Killer without paying for the item.

Video uploaded to social media, but later deleted, shows Smith spraying the pesticide on various produce items available for purchase, including vegetables, fruit and rotisserie chickens.

A Walmart spokesperson said workers removed all the directly impacted products and cleaned and sanitized the affected area of the store.

Smith reportedly filmed his face, the pesticide can and the act of spraying the items before he posted the video online.

Mesa police began an investigation along with the Tempe Police Department and identified Smith as the suspect. Police contacted Smith, and he turned himself in voluntarily.

Police say Smith admitted to the act in an interview. He faces the following charges:

Introducing Poison (Class 6 Felony)

Criminal Damage (Class 1 Misdemeanor)

Endangerment (Class 1 Misdemeanor)

Theft (Class 1 Misdemeanor)

Arizona’s Family talked with shoppers who are downright upset.

“Pranks should be actually funny. Like if it’s hurting others in the process, why would you do that?” said Alysia Iverson.

According to court paperwork, Smith is a self-proclaimed “troll.” Police said Smith told them he posts these types of pranks on his social as a “troll” and can make anywhere from $6,000 to $10,000 a month.

A troll is someone who makes deliberately offensive or provocative posts online.

Make him famous.

”I think social media has got people doing crazy things out here,” said Xavier Griego, a shopper at Walmart. “It’s unfortunate that somebody would mess up their whole life, potentially, for something on social media for views.”

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Obviously, he will be banned from Walmart. He will be forced to pay for all the damages to products, the sanitation disposal fees, likely be demonitized from all his social media platforms, face medical expenses from shoppers who consumed any of those products. 

Customers who purchased these products or witnessed it will be traumatized.

Yeah, we all had messed up orders at grocery stores and fast food restaurants. We had bad customer service from cashiers, servers, managers and customer service. We all been frustrated with the service industry.

But for intentional and unintentional food contamination, it is very rare.

1. Restaurants, gas stations and grocery stores are forbidden from having chemicals near food. The federal and state authorities have strict guidelines to contamination.

2. Insect spray, rat poisons, unauthorized cleaning chemicals and glue traps are not used in restaurants, gas stations, bars and retailers.

3. All businesses use contactless pest control devices which involves no poison.

4. Any biohazard like blood, mucus, fecal matter, vomit, semen, vaginal fluid, saliva and hair, animal droppings, skin, tears, sweat and breast milk in food must be destroyed.
