Meschuk was filmed licking several items in the grocery store including her shopping cart, produce bags and the door handle of a beer fridge.

She captioned the footage:

Germs fortify your immune system. Exposure to germs builds defenses against asthma and allergies. Microbes help digestion.

She also told her followers to 'be free,' likely suggesting that coronavirus mandates restrict freedoms and to have 'love over fear, not law.'

Meschuk is believed to live in Colorado, although it is unclear where clip was filmed.

The licking video has been removed from Meschuk's Instagram page. It is unclear if she took it down, or if Instagram removed the video themselves.

Her posts address hot-button issues such as the coronavirus, vaccines, racism in America and religion.

She also wrote a book titled Autism Reimagined where she allegedly explains how to 'reverse the diagnosis'.

Meschuk is not the first person to make headlines for licking items in a grocery store.

There were several licking instances in 2020 at the height of the first wave of COVID:

  • A California woman was arrested after she allegedly licked a cart full of groceries valued at $1,800.
  • A Missouri man was filmed licking bottles on a grocery store shelf in a video shared to social media.
  • A South Carolina woman was arrested for allegedly licking her hands and touching food items and surfaces at a grocery store and sandwich shop.
  • A supermarket in Pennsylvania was forced to throw away $35,000 worth of food after a woman deliberately coughed over it in a twisted coronavirus prank.
