Hoda Kotb has a “crumby” bedroom habit that she just can’t crack(er), even after Jenna Bush Hager ridiculed her for it on live television.
On Tuesday morning’s (Aug. 22) episode of Today with Hoda & Jenna, the two co-hosts discussed the new viral trend of installing a snack drawer under your bed, which has taken over TikTok these days.
“So a lot of people like to snack in bed,” Kotb began. “I feel you and I’m with you. I think it’s a good idea.”
“Disagree,” Bush Hager immediately interjected.
Kotb rebutted that “a sleeve of Ritz crackers is good to have,” describing them as “nice and buttery” as she mimed popping some crackers into her mouth.
Bush Hager was disgusted, asking Kotb, “Can you imagine what a sleeve, first of all, of Ritz crackers does to your sheets?”
“I love Ritz crackers,” Kotb added, but that didn’t seem to help her case with her co-host.
“You gotta give up eating in bed,” Bush Hager pleaded.
When Kotb asked why, she replied, “Because it’s crumby!”
“It’s cozy,” Kotb noted, which just startled Bush Hager even more.
“Here, let me show you what you do,” Kotb explained, as she mimicked brushing off the crumbs onto the floor, which elicited some laughs from behind the camera.
“So that it’s all over your ground?” Bush Hager asked in disbelief. “In your New York city apartment where little mice like to come and eat a Ritz cracker?”
Kotb then delved further into the “new trend for people who are like-minded,” where “people are now developing a snack drawer under their bed.”
“I know what I’m going to get you for Christmas!” Bush Hager exclaimed. “A snack drawer under your bed. Would you like that?”
However, despite Kotb’s remarkable regard for Ritz crackers, she shared that she “actually [doesn’t] like bugs, so if there’s a slight risk of bugs, [she] wouldn’t do it.”
“Ok, so because you don’t like bugs, I would keep the Ritz out of your bed”,” Bush Hager continued to bug out. “There’s still bugs!”
