An elderly man has been labelled ‘the smartest person on the planet’ after his granddaughter revealed his ‘genius’ way of eating a sausage roll.
Sydney chef Lillian Kaskoutas was having lunch with her Greek grandfather Platon, who ordered a sausage roll with tomato sauce on the side.
Instead of sprinkling the seasoning over the dough, as most Australians tend to do, Platon cut the sausage roll down the centre horizontally and carefully scooped out the sauce inside before enjoying his lunch.
“He’s been eating them like this for at least 20 years. It’s a classic,” Lillian, 27, told FEMAIL.
The technique was hailed as “elite”, “brilliant” and “revolutionary” by thousands of people online after Lillian shared a now-viral video. video.
While many were surprised by the tactic, others wondered why it hadn’t occurred to them before.
“You just changed my life!” wrote one.

A heated debate has erupted after Sydney radio hosts Will and Woody from KIIS FM asked listeners a simple question.
“When the green light comes on, does that mean the toast is ready, like jaffle, or does it just mean the plate is hot enough and ready to cook a jaffle?” asked Will McMahon.
The two debated amongst themselves and then Woody Whitelaw asked, “How do you know if it’s ready?”
One co-host noted that the device “isn’t smart enough to tell you when your coffee is ready.”
Most listeners believe the green light means the plate has reached maximum temperature, but one woman on air said it means “both.”
After sharing a clip on TikTok, opinions were divided in the comments, with dozens sharing their views.
