Here are a few fun facts about Married At First Sight’s Erin.
She’s ‘married’ to Bryce. She’s 25 years old. She works in retail. She lives at home, and before last night’s episode, she had never been grocery shopping before. Ever.
Credit where credit is due, after moving out of her family home and in with her new ‘husband’ Bryce, Erin embraced exploring life outside her comfort zone.
She was going to cook him a meal. Lasagna, which I think we can all agree is a pretty good jumping-off point. But before conquering the carby goodness Erin had a preliminary battle to face – buying the ingredients.
As Erin wandered through the fruit and veg, she was pleasantly surprised. She needed carrots and zucchini, which were conveniently placed side-by-side in the fruit and veg shop. But then she entered un-chartered territory- celery.
“I’ve never shopped for food before,” she said nervously. “Can you even buy single celery sticks?”
And don’t even think about mentioning basil.
As she intently studied the list of ingredients given to her by her mum, Erin was self-effacing, funny and entirely aware of her inability to ‘adult’ in a way that would be deemed by most to be sufficient.
But people of the Twitterverse didn’t exactly see it that way.

Sorry but this girl just looks like an idiot!
Well, she is a "contestant" on a reality-TV show. Did you really need to see her to work out she's a moron?
The scientists go on and on about how they have ways to worm out contestants that aren't ready for the commitment of marriage and are applying for the wrong reasons like fame. Yet someone who has less life skills (and maybe less life experience too) than my 16yo self somehow lands up on the show? Puh-lease scientists a 25 yo girl who can't take care of herself is not ready to marry someone, you just want them ratings.
You just realised that. You need a good dose of quality TV. The ABC awaits
