Opposition leader Peter Dutton has once again reassured the Australian public that he is a totally normal guy, all while eating a Maxibon from the cookie side first.
The Coalition leader fronted cameras yesterday while chowing down on the ice cream treat.
“There’s been a lot going around about whether I do or don’t have a soul. I just want to assure you all that I do have a soul and I’m familiar with the human experience,” he said.
When asked about the unorthodox Maxibon eating style, Dutton was quick to defend the technique.
“Look, I know that, uh, many Australians will, uh, see this as a strange way to eat a Maxibon.”
“But the cookie is the best bit, so I’m going to eat that first, obviously.”
When questioned on the fact that eating from the cookie side first threatens the structural integrity of the ice cream, Dutton explained that he enjoys it when the ice cream half of the treat collapses in on itself and he has to slurp it out of the bag.
“It’s great. It’s the dairy version of a Zooper Dooper when you think about it.”
The admission has already rung alarm bells around the nation. Many are saying that this is a bigger red flag than his nighttime kite-flying hobby or the fact that, when he watches footy, he “roots for the refs” every game.
“I love the watching the graceful and subtle art of refereeing, it doesn’t matter what code, you could call me quite the sports guy”
Dutton hopes his honesty and unique way of eating Maxibons will help him connect with everyday Australians in this year’s upcoming election.
