This Bar Used Naked Women As Fruit Platters, And People Freaked Out

by Gillian Fuller

Another day, another nudity scandal.

This time, though, it's at a place you wouldn't expect: a restaurant.

Apparently, the Cruise Bar in Sydney thought it would be a good idea to serve fruit on naked women's bodies.

Unsurpisingly, people weren't too thrilled — not only because of the implied sexism, but because of the hygienic violations that come with serving food on a person's naked body.

Pretty gross, right?

Social media, of course, exploded with negative reactions:

People weren't too thrilled with the spectacle.

I, for one, have a lot of questions.

Surely, at some point, someone puts their hand up and says, serving fruit off topless women may not be the greatest idea... #CruiseBar — Jedi (@TheRealJedi) August 27, 2015

Like what did the woman-platters think of the drama?

And did people still eat the nude food?

So many questions. Not enough answers.

The restaurant has yet to respond to the controversy.
