90 Day Fiance star Stephanie Matto has revealed the process behind her £38,000 a week fart in a jar business, and as it turns out there’s a real science to it.
The 31-year-old has been making headlines with her unusual stream of income recently, explaining how she utilised her 260k-strong following as her customer base to sell her pungent product for princely $1k (£756) a jar.
Now, the reality star has shocked fans by going into further detail about the process behind it.
Speaking on Steph’s Packed Lunch, Stephanie explained how things started by saying: ‘I have a YouTube channel for about eight years and a lot of my fans that were into me were asking for strange items, articles of clothing.
‘But one repeat request I’ve been getting throughout the years is a fart.
‘I thought it was just a joke, people just messing with me, but one day I decided to throw them up on sale and see if people would buy them. I wasn’t expecting people to but they actually sold out within two days.’

She then went into more detail about the process behind it, saying: ‘I have it down to a pretty good science. I bought these fabric flower petals and I fart directly on them because the fabric really captures the scent better.
‘And then I just put that flower petal into a jar, I seal it up, I tape it and then I ship it out.’
The interview seemed to shock some viewers, with one writing: ‘Selling farts? Ugh, How disgusting! Another pathetic attention seeker and as for the saddos who pay money for it, I have no words. Sickos.

‘Farts, lovely subject for lunchtime,’ another added.
‘This was just the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen on day time tv,’ one more said.
Stephanie caused quite a stir this week by revealing that demand was so high for her wind that she was producing up to 50 jars worth of farts a week.
However, she may have squeezed out one too many as the reality star had to make a hospital dash.
She told Jam Press: ‘I thought I was having a stroke and that these were my final moments. I was overdoing it.’
Stephanie, 31, recalled how she consumed three protein shakes and a huge bowl of black bean soup in one day, before feeling that ‘something was not right’ with a pressure in her stomach that moved upwards throughout her body.
‘It was quite hard to breathe and every time I tried to breathe in I’d feel a pinching sensation around my heart,’ she explained.
Steph’s Packed Lunch airs on weekdays at 12.30pm on Channel 4.
