The November 16 YouTube video has gone viral for a number of reasons, especially after Charlie D\u2019Amelio appeared to complain about not reaching 99 million followers within a year of scoring 1 million. While she\u2019s received her fair share of criticism over the topic, viewers\u2019 eyes have since shifted to Dixie, who is likewise catching flak for her treatment of a dish created by the D\u2019Amelio family chef. During the episode, their chef \u2014 Chef Aaron May \u2014 snuck some snail onto Dixie\u2019s plate, and it doesn\u2019t look like the Connecticut native was super jazzed about the ordeal. \u201cWhat is this?\u201d she asked, looking completely bewildered after poking at the animal on her plate. When Chef May confirmed that it was, indeed, a snail, Dixie made a gagging motion and dramatically leaned away from the table. \u201cIt\u2019s actually an omen of good luck and fortune!\u201d Chef May explained. (Topic begins at 6:15) Fans were quick to criticize Dixie for her comments on the meal, with many calling her entitled and rude to a qualified chef who had labored in the kitchen to provide them with the luxurious food. \u201cThat was childish, spitting out and throwing up the food saying it was gross right in front of him,\u201d one user wrote. \u201cThis is honestly such a joke,\u201d another said. \u201cJames was the only respectful one, poor chef.\u201d \u201cDude, y\u2019all are disgusting,\u201d another added. \u201cCharli\u2019s faces and Dixie \u2018throwing up\u2019? Be grateful. Some of us can\u2019t have even have dinner every night. Get manners.\u201d Dixie has since responded to the backlash in an Instagram comment, clarifying that her reaction to the snail was all in good fun and that she is sincerely grateful for the hard work of Chef May. \u201cChef Aaron May is a close family friend and we love him and everything he does,\u201d she wrote. \u201c\u2026He was standing behind the camera telling me to eat a snail, knowing I would have a reaction. In no way would I ever want to come off as disrespectful, because it was all jokes.\u201d View this post on Instagram While some viewers have accepted D\u2019Amelio\u2019s statement, still others are continuing to be critical of the D\u2019Amelio sisters\u2019 table manners. Chef May has yet to release a public statement on the matter at the time of publication.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dixie D\u2019Amelio denies accusations of disrespecting her family chef YouTube: The D&#8217;Amelio FamilyTikTok star Dixie D\u2019Amelio is coming under fire due to the latest episode of her family YouTube series \u201cDinner with the D\u2019Amelios,\u201d after she appeared to turn her nose up at some snail prepared by her personal chef.
