Explaining her shopping routine, she said: “We do go shopping just like everybody else – we’Normal people are not like us. We’re actually pretty well off, and we use that to our advantage.
“We actually rent out a grocery store, for one hour, one day a week, before they open. We pay the grocery store to sanitise everything and let us be the only people in there shopping, so we don’t have to be in there with other germy people, y’know?
“We also do this so [our daughter] Crete can have unique experiences,” she said.
Sure enough, in a follow-up video, Emma shared a short video of what appeared to be a quiet and deserted supermarket.
In response to another question from a commenter, the content creator confirmed that her approach to germs also extends to restaurants and that they don’t visit them – adding that “if you knew what goes on behind the scenes in a restaurant, you wouldn’t either”.
