A British Airways flight attendant was suspended after allegedly eating a muffin left for trash on a passenger's meal tray, The Daily Mail reported.

The airline is treating the situation as a theft, the newspaper reported.


Gross, but treating it as a theft??

reminds of seinfeld where george eats the connoli out of the trash and gets caught

I say let the flight attendant's punishment be catching whatever sickness that passenger had (flu, herpes, etc.)...

C'mon everyone knows even the homeless won't touch a muffin stump (and you just know it was the stump that was left on the tray)

I've never heard this term before. But it's what I'm going to start calling short people.

Yet another Seinfeld - Muffin Tops & Cramer getting Newman to eat all the Stumps left over from the Muffin Top shop.

Rebecca: Excuse me, I'm Rebecca Demore from the homeless shelter.

Elaine: Oh, hi.

Rebecca: Are you the ones leaveing the muffing pieces behind our shelter?

Elaine: You been enjoying them?

Rebecca: They're just stumps.

Elaine: Well they're perfectly edible.

Rebecca: Oh, so you just assume that the homeless will eat them, they'll eat anything?

Mr. Lippman: No no, we just thought...

Rebecca: I know what you thought. They don't have homes, they don't have jobs, what do they need the top of a muffin for? They're lucky to get the stumps.

Elaine: If the homeless don't like them the homeless don't have to eat them.

Rebecca: The homeless don't like them.

Elaine: Fine.

Rebecca: We've never gotten so many complaints. Every two minutes, "Where is the top of this muffin? Who ate the rest of this?"

Elaine: We were just trying to help.

Rebecca: Why don't you just drop off some chicken skins and lobster shells.

Elaine: I think I might.

that's why I said it

MB - I was so trying to find that online, but I couldnt. Thanks for posting! LOLoad

It's top of the Muffin to you. not top of the muffin TO YOU!

Dang, can't find the exact quote from Kramer, but:

Oh, they dig, they test.

Anyone know that line?

OMG I'm laughing so hard over here LOL

Muffin Stump? I have only heard of a Muffin Top. A muffin top is the fat that hangs over the top of people's jeans when they are wearing jeans that are too small.............

They named them Muffin Stumps on the Seinfeld episode. Loved that one - well actually I loved most of the episodes.

Well dang, I learned something new today...

Yes, it applies to many of today's teens..........

I have seen them... GROSS!!!! With their skimpy shirts and low-risers with the chubba hanging over their pants for the world to see... I wonder how the parents can let them buy/wear/leave the house with those clothes.

Nothing worse than seeing a Muffin Top with a Whale Tail.

For DQ: that's what it's called when you can see the 'T' top of their underwear sticking out above the edge of their jeans. The term only applies to thong style undies. Regular ones that poke out have no certain name that I'm aware of - they're just tacky.

there are no muffin tops on BOL -- all the ladies are svelt and have great looking abs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there are some beatiful tails too, but no whales!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Muffin top usually refers to a woman BTW. (men just have a beer belly)
so would that mean that men suffer from Muffin Stump?

I thought those were mushroom caps!
