Everyone should know basic hygiene. Wash your hands after using the bathroom, before eating or preparing food, after touching animals, and after returning home from somewhere else. Shower every day, brush your teeth twice a day, and change your sheets and towels at least once a week. You might slack off every now and then and forget to replace the sponge in your kitchen for a few weeks, but for the most part, keeping clean isn’t too difficult.
Well, for most people it isn't. Apparently, some adults have yet to figure it out... TikTok users have been recalling the most vile and unhygienic things they’ve ever seen someone else do, so we’ve gathered their worst stories below. We’ll warn you right now, pandas, that you do not want to read this article while eating lunch. Good luck making your way through these stomach-churning tales, and be sure to upvote the ones that make you want to take a shower immediately!

We made dinner at his place and told me he’d do the dishes later. We hung out a couple times after and i hadn’t been to his apartment since. i went maybe 4 months later and the pots and pans + the dishes we had used from that night were still there. On the sink, right where we left them. I asked abt it and he said he made pasta the other night but they were 100% growing mold.

He had cooked supper and I thought he was done with his plate because he started feeding his dog with the fork but when I looked over again he was eating with that same fork on the same plate.

He had a specific glass that he would never wash. he drank milk and juice out of it and one time i decided to do some dishes and wash the cup turns out it wasnt frosted glass it was just congealed milk on the sides that had been festering for weeks if not months.
