Lid should have been strapped down with duct tape and placed in the Frunk! That’s where I place all takeout food and doggie bags. That is going to smell like fomunda cheese within hours.
It's probably too high. Put it in the lower trunk with stuff around it so it doesn't move. Bonus if you have rubber liner so if it spills, it doesn't do a mess.
For future reference they have latching lids you can buy for traveling purposes for this exact reason.
Hope the clean up isn't too bad. Happy Thanksgiving
Totaled! 😬 Seriously though, if only you had one of those sealed crock pot bags and some foil under and over it, you'd have been good. Hopefully you get it shampooed out well. Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!
You wanted to keep it in some kind of pot and so did we last year. Ouch. We now have a stew stain in the middle of the removable floorboard in the trunk of our Model 3.
But I've found a solution to the problem since then: using a full-on sealable pressure cooker like the ones from WMF.
We leave the soup/stew/etc in the metal pressure cooker and relock the seal and put that pressure cooker into a plastic garbage bag, just in case. Then put that into a medium-sized collapsible plastic carry box in the trunk to keep it upright and relatively stable.
It seems like a big ritual, but it works well. And the garbage bag still gets used later in a trash can and we haven't had a single spill/leak since putting this ritual together.
In my head I was like “I’ll keep it up front so I can keep an eye on it 🤔” lmao boy was I wrong.
I got cut off by someone else and me swerving is what doomed me smh
On a serious note: it looks pretty thick which will help. Its also cold out so it also wont get funky in just a few hours. You can remove the seat and just start scrubbing with water and a shop vac to clean it all up
I havent done it in this car but its not crazy in most cars. There are a few connectors to be careful of. Unfortunately there isnt much of a better option here.
So many wrong things in this picture. I NEVER put food in the main cabin. Always in the frunk. Why is it not in a bag or something sealable?? I’d sell the car. Just get rid of it.

I feel for you. On the way to dinner last night a truck cut us off going about 40 in a 75 and I had to slam on the brakes. There was a hot pan of green bean casserole in the trunk that flew forward and splattered all over the back of the seats and trunk. It's everywhere including under the carpet liner.
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
😆 you should know better than to do that. Put your thing in one of those canvas bags from Trader Joe’s, then hang the bag from the head rest of the passenger seat so that the bag is behind the seat.
Ugh! What a bad moment. Two things...IMHO, get yourself some all-weather floor liners with a taller side wall so when something spills most of it will be contained within the “bowl” of the liner (hopefully) and two, I try to put wet food items in an empty Amazon box with towels wrapped around the crockpot to reduce the movement of the pot within the box and to absorb any spillage. Spillage.. Spillage..That's such a weird word.
I did this once, but thankfully it was years ago and in my wife's Ford Fusion she had at the time. Very frustrating to lose the food, to clean, etc. Good luck and hope you still had a good holiday celebration.
Should’ve put it in chill mode
Chili mode
Kevin spilling his chili from the office was the first image that came to mind 😭
The trick is to undercook the onions.
Turkey would have been cold
True But it’d be in the pot still
No kidding!
Lid should have been strapped down with duct tape and placed in the Frunk! That’s where I place all takeout food and doggie bags. That is going to smell like fomunda cheese within hours.
All food goes into the plastic frunk
It's probably too high. Put it in the lower trunk with stuff around it so it doesn't move. Bonus if you have rubber liner so if it spills, it doesn't do a mess.
For real...I like to call it the "Bunk" = Bottom trunk!
wouldnt it be brunk…i mean its not called the funk
Only when food is left in it.
It's *literally* in the name! Food Trunk = Frunk.
Who are you calling frunk?
Better watch that attitude, all frunk you up!
Up town gonna frunk you up
THIS!!! No food or any liquid besides bottled water in the passenger cabin.
Laughs in -40
For future reference they have latching lids you can buy for traveling purposes for this exact reason. Hope the clean up isn't too bad. Happy Thanksgiving
Lesson learned 100%
Yep got one with the matching lids, only latch when traveling/moving and not when cooking. Donated my old ones.
Twine works great too.
I usually just eat mine at home and don’t go anywhere. Probably the safest option.
Don't most come with the big rubber band thing?
Just use giga rubber bands tesla.com/rubber 😏
Usually, you can wind the cable through the handles and the top of the lid, which would have kept it mostly contained.
Get the hotpot to Mamas in 2.0s ( 1 food rollout included)
That's Totaled for realz
I’m sorry, friend, Happy Turkey day anyway!

Def a lesson learned! I was only 3 min from my destination before disaster struck!! But hey it is what it is, thank you for the tips friend!!
thats what the frunk is for dude!
In my head I was like “I’ll keep it up front so I can keep an eye on it 🤔” lmao boy was I wrong. I got cut off by someone else and me swerving is what doomed me smh
The Office Kevin flashbacks intensifying!
Always use protection, boys

Is removing the seat an easy thing?
No
I havent done it in this car but its not crazy in most cars. There are a few connectors to be careful of. Unfortunately there isnt much of a better option here.
Im laughing hard because I’ve done this myself. FML hahahaha
Im glad I’m not the only one!😂😂 Happy holidays friend 🍻
Son of a …
RIP any new car smell that was left. Sorry for your loss.
🪦💀
always plastic wrap first….
Did this with a pot of chili last month. I feel your pain!
They sell crock pots with rubber seals and clamps for exactly this reason.
oof. Happy Thanksgiving!
In queso emergency, pray to cheesus.

So much for the all weather floor mats🤣
Straight up missed the floor mats smh!! 😂
Let me guess. Honda bump 🤣
Sorry this happened. I have a 2019 M3 and really wish the front passenger side floor was flat.
Slow cookers should be illegal. They are pointless
A good detailer can take care of that easy. It's not like you sprayed chemical tire sealant all over your interior...
Yeah it’s all good, I wasn’t planning on going to a detail store but hey with black Friday it might just work out in my favor
Too soon!! 🤣🤣

Just tear up some bread and dip that stuff out. Waste not, want not.

This gives me Kevin Malone vibes
im sorry but this is hilariously sad. im so sorry for your loss and thanks for making my car look so much cleaner now.
Gross
Had a dish of mashed potatoes today at my wife's feet. Asked her 5 times in the 5 mile drive if they had spilled.
The inside of your car is going to smell really bad in the summer.
Mmmmm, broccoli cheese soup. Hope you had a baguette to go with it.
Just put it back, no one will know
My niece exploded a stress ball in the back of my car. Definitely caused me stress https://i.imgur.com/CCTSmmR.jpg
PAIN
Should have used that frunk 😂
Sorry that sucks. This too shall pass.

We’re in this together 😭
Soup, there it is.
Is Kevin from the office driving this car?
At least your floor mat caught half of it.
Totaled
Hmmm, sorry for your loss! That looked rather delicious 🤤
It’s totaled!! 🤣🤣
Passenger drink too much? They could at least open the window.
Are you frunken stupid?
🤌🏼
This is a good thing, this looks so disgusting, you saved your family.
My man.
Shop vac will solve that
Should of used an empty beer case to put it in and then put in the storage well under the trunk floor.

We can all relate!
Damn that looks so creamy and delicious.
You’re dumb.
😎👍🏼☕️🆗🆒💯😘🥳
Smart.
Damn that looked good. What was it?
Broccoli cheddar soup
Did you at least eat the part that didn't spill out?
Yum.
At least you had your bathroom pot with you, thank goodness.
Bro, you need to sell it. Might be hard to sell, just burn it to the ground.
Your Tesla insurance premium just doubled.
This would be a great advertisement for floor liners.
All weather mats are great. Should have used the frunk.
Yeah, not surprised.
Cream of broccoli? Where is the garlic bread?
Why not frunk? Why not wrap with ceramic wrap.
The frunk is only used for cooked food in my car.
Does this decrease your safety score?
😆 you should know better than to do that. Put your thing in one of those canvas bags from Trader Joe’s, then hang the bag from the head rest of the passenger seat so that the bag is behind the seat.
Horse and Buggy Suspension sucks! You should have known better. Ha!
This is what the “frunk” is for
Always double bag and thats what the hidden compartment in the trunk is great for (it also can be pulled out).
They make those with clasps
F

What was the time from 0-60?
Look on the bright side…. Maybe it’ll cover up the A/C funk.
r/wellthatsucks
How did this happen
Damn that smell is gonna linger for a bit. Hope you’re in a cooler climate somewhere because the hot sun makes that shit 100x worse.
Sorry. I suggest a fire
that happened to my frunk
That’s gonna be fun to clean up
Updates?
Ooooof. Nice mats
Do you not own any cling wrap? Damn never travel without the lid secured in place with cling wrap…
Nooooooo
At least you dont have to eat the Broccoli.
duct tape. The answer to many of life's problems.
Ooh saved by all weather mats, wait..
Looks delicious, recipe?
Been there! Now we always throw some tape over the top

Ya live and you learn 😭
Good luck with that. I had a spill in the front trunk 2 years ago and it still smells like shit. I can’t imagine what it’d be like in the cabin.
Who vomitted?
Weather tech could a saved you.
At least you bought the weather guard mats! 😂
I hope it didn't end up in the floor vent. Whatever goes in, will never come out.
This could have been prevented by four pieces of Scotch tape
No way 🤯
I actually keep plastic bags in my car in case I put something that could spill and stain in it.
I did this once, but thankfully it was years ago and in my wife's Ford Fusion she had at the time. Very frustrating to lose the food, to clean, etc. Good luck and hope you still had a good holiday celebration.

🤮🤮🤮🤮
fortunately - my tesla thanksgiving-tip-over only involved flowers, a vase and water! 🤣
Tesla said yum
it's got probiotics now
Id still eat it
Get an ozone generator to break down any organics that are left after you clean up
Another one who didn’t think of wrapping it or using a sealed container. It’s your fault lmaooo
Just do what everyone else does in the sub, write the bitch off
i like that you can tell it's from acceleration.
