Eyal Shani, the legally embattled, eccentric gourmet who hosts Israel’s reality show “MasterChef,” shared a decidedly unappetizing picture with his followers on Instagram over the weekend.
Shani, best known for esoteric and bizarrely poetic rambling comments about cuisine, posted a photo of his, um, bratwurst while urinating. It appeared with the comment: “Sorry about the journey I am taking you on today between the bathrooms on my route, and in Paris no less, but it’s beautiful, no?”
Apparently, Shani, whose Instagram handle is @Eyaltomato, was referring to the toilet bowl.

Shani’s member is visible in the bottom right-hand corner of the picture, which garnered hundreds of likes on the social media site but prompted many on social media sites to question his judgement, if not his aim.
There was no word as to whether he washed his hands on the way out.

Responsibly covering this tumultuous time
As The Times of Israel’s political correspondent, I spend my days in the Knesset trenches, speaking with politicians and advisers to understand their plans, goals and motivations.
I'm proud of our coverage of this government's plans to overhaul the judiciary, including the political and social discontent that underpins the proposed changes and the intense public backlash against the shakeup.
