A WOMAN has revealed the cheap portable appliance that she uses to make lunches at work but some people think it’s gross.

Allison Olson has gone viral on TikTok after showing off the electric lunch box that she uses to make her lunches each day.

In her latest video, which has gained nearly 1million views, Allison cooks chili hot dogs at her desk.

Allison takes the defrosted hot dogs and puts them in the lunch box, which is actually a three-in-one food heater, cooker, and steamer with stainless steel bowls.

She scoops out chili from a can and uses a ramen packet to give it a “beefy flavor.”

“Probably shouldn’t have dumped the whole packet, it’s gonna be too salty,” Allison wrote using the app’s onscreen text.

After mixing the beef, Allison places everything in the cooker, adds water and turns it on.

As the water steams the food, Allison cuts up an onion and attempts to steam hot dog buns with vapor coming from the lunch box.

After 10 minutes, the food is cooked and Allison prepares the hot dogs before adding chili on top.

To top it off, she adds a bit of shredded cheese and pops the hot dogs back in the lunch box so the cheese melts. 

Finally, she adds onions and eats the hot dogs with a bag of chips and a chocolate chip cookie on the side.

In the caption, Allison wrote that she “didn’t expect this to slap the way it did.”

The gadget saved her $14, which is the price of two chili dogs from popular vendor Nathan's Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs.

She received thousands of comments from people who criticized her for making food at her desk.

“Some people really be treating the office like it’s home,” wrote one person.

“Y’all will do anything EXCEPT use the break room,” wrote another.

However, others appreciated her creativity.

“Honestly, you’re so real for this,” wrote one person.

“I work from home and have access to my whole damn kitchen and I still want this,” wrote someone else.
