Stephanie Matto, who starred on the TV series 90 Day Fiance , revealed her very lucrative and very stinky side hustle: Selling her farts in a jar.
The former reality star has posted multiple videos on TikTok about her fart-sharing. Her first one, titled
“ Day in the life of a girl who sells her farts in a jar! ” has 6.6 million views and in it, she explains what she ingests to make the perfect containable, sell- able fart.
Beans, a protein muffin, yogurt, hard-boiled eggs usually do the trick for Matto. She added that she loves to read while “waiting for those farts to develop,” before unleashing them into a jar.
Matto adds a cou- ple of flower petals to really “attach the scent,” which apparently is strongest in the first two days, as well as a person- alized note.
In
a follow-up video , captioned, she informed her fans that her farts made her $45,000 (nearly $58,000 CAD) in one week.
It bears repeating:
$45,000
in one week ... for jars of farts.
“I think my main motivation was money, but I also thought it’d be a hilarious publicity move that would get a lot of peo-
ple’s
attention,” Matto told BuzzFeed . “And it has defi- nitely worked.”
She told the site her inbox is “flooded daily with people wanting to purchase jars” of
her
toots, with some requesting videos of her creating the jars.
“I think I’ve really tapped into a huge market, and there seems to be endless potential.”
