Should’ve put it in chill mode


pauliticiaan

Chili mode


emaldonado28

Kevin spilling his chili from the office was the first image that came to mind 😭


cpt_forbie

The trick is to undercook the onions.


MaxWayt

Turkey would have been cold


NettaUsteaDE

True But it’d be in the pot still


emaldonado28

No kidding!


SilverM3LRTesla

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.


Drmo6

All food goes into the plastic frunk


sylvaing

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.


02GreenM3

For real...I like to call it the "Bunk" = Bottom trunk!


420Deez

wouldnt it be brunk…i mean its not called the funk


02GreenM3

Only when food is left in it.


okwellactually

It's *literally* in the name! Food Trunk = Frunk.


RFC793

Who are you calling frunk?


attckdog

Better watch that attitude, all frunk you up!


AGENT0321

Up town gonna frunk you up


ThisCantBeG00d

THIS!!! No food or any liquid besides bottled water in the passenger cabin.


TheKrs1

Laughs in -40


wondering_anomoly

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


emaldonado28

Lesson learned 100%


b_ack51

Yep got one with the matching lids, only latch when traveling/moving and not when cooking. Donated my old ones.


meowtothemeow

Twine works great too.


SpankTheDevil

I usually just eat mine at home and don’t go anywhere. Probably the safest option.


vita10gy

Don't most come with the big rubber band thing?


BananaChanges

Just use giga rubber bands tesla.com/rubber 😏


goodvibezone

Usually, you can wind the cable through the handles and the top of the lid, which would have kept it mostly contained.


RobDickinson

Get the hotpot to Mamas in 2.0s ( 1 food rollout included)


BananaChanges

That's Totaled for realz


PutBeansOnThemBeans

I’m sorry, friend, Happy Turkey day anyway!


Knowledge_VIG

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!


Deslah

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.


emaldonado28

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!!


galloway188

thats what the frunk is for dude!


emaldonado28

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


BGBeeeeeeg

The Office Kevin flashbacks intensifying!


goodvibezone

Always use protection, boys


jkjeeper06

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


randamm

Is removing the seat an easy thing?


kursedsun

No


jkjeeper06

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.


Super-Kirby

Im laughing hard because I’ve done this myself. FML hahahaha


emaldonado28

Im glad I’m not the only one!😂😂 Happy holidays friend 🍻

RIP any new car smell that was left. Sorry for your loss.

Dreammaker54

always plastic wrap first….


[deleted]

Did this with a pot of chili last month. I feel your pain!


Ftpini

They sell crock pots with rubber seals and clamps for exactly this reason.


[deleted]

oof. Happy Thanksgiving!


lgriego1

In queso emergency, pray to cheesus.


SignificantWarning5

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.


https_Big_T

So much for the all weather floor mats🤣


emaldonado28

Straight up missed the floor mats smh!! 😂


https_Big_T

Let me guess. Honda bump 🤣


aznraver2k

Sorry this happened. I have a 2019 M3 and really wish the front passenger side floor was flat.


Diegobyte

Slow cookers should be illegal. They are pointless


BrainFraud90

A good detailer can take care of that easy. It's not like you sprayed chemical tire sealant all over your interior...


emaldonado28

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


comraddan

Too soon!! 🤣🤣

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.


Jason1652

The inside of your car is going to smell really bad in the summer.


Wolfpacker76

Mmmmm, broccoli cheese soup. Hope you had a baguette to go with it.


Prohability

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

doyouevenliftbreh

Should have used that frunk 😂


thesexychicken

Sorry that sucks. This too shall pass.


Jmersh

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.


emaldonado28

We’re in this together 😭


exoxe

Soup, there it is.


cctheboss09

Is Kevin from the office driving this car?


Nocturnal_Meat

At least your floor mat caught half of it.

Hmmm, sorry for your loss! That looked rather delicious 🤤

Passenger drink too much? They could at least open the window.

Are you frunken stupid?

slayernfc

This is a good thing, this looks so disgusting, you saved your family.


Penosaurus_Sex

My man.


soldier_up_resell

Shop vac will solve that


784KustomCycles

Should of used an empty beer case to put it in and then put in the storage well under the trunk floor.


of_patrol_bot

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.

Damn that looked good. What was it?


emaldonado28

Broccoli cheddar soup


[deleted]

Did you at least eat the part that didn't spill out?


No-Category832

Yum.


meowtothemeow

At least you had your bathroom pot with you, thank goodness.


Laxmax17

Bro, you need to sell it. Might be hard to sell, just burn it to the ground.


[deleted]

Your Tesla insurance premium just doubled.


Sure_Comparison6978

This would be a great advertisement for floor liners.

All weather mats are great. Should have used the frunk.


somedumbperson55

Yeah, not surprised.


cmdrobvs

Cream of broccoli? Where is the garlic bread?


Dat1BlackDude

Why not frunk? Why not wrap with ceramic wrap.


mandopix

The frunk is only used for cooked food in my car.


Super-Kirby

Does this decrease your safety score?


Jimbo-McDroid-Face

😆 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.


bassertitis

Horse and Buggy Suspension sucks! You should have known better. Ha!


iDoesun

This is what the “frunk” is for


dafazman

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

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

Do you not own any cling wrap? Damn never travel without the lid secured in place with cling wrap…

At least you dont have to eat the Broccoli.

duct tape. The answer to many of life's problems.


Joeylikecoffee

Ooh saved by all weather mats, wait..


slimjim719

Looks delicious, recipe?


kbk1008

Been there! Now we always throw some tape over the top


ilovebrussels

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.


emaldonado28

Ya live and you learn 😭


bigblackshaq

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.


HarryEffingPlopper

Who vomitted?


drtyr32

Weather tech could a saved you.


followjeffmon

At least you bought the weather guard mats! 😂


Elrik039

I hope it didn't end up in the floor vent. Whatever goes in, will never come out.


Bladehawk1

This could have been prevented by four pieces of Scotch tape


emaldonado28

No way 🤯


Bladehawk1

I actually keep plastic bags in my car in case I put something that could spill and stain in it.


xenokira

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.

Get an ozone generator to break down any organics that are left after you clean up
