Martha Stewart Called Out For ‘Tone Deaf’ Use Iceberg As Cocktail Garnish

An Instagram post made by Martha Stewart has received backlash from fans of the businesswoman and TV personality.

Commemorating the end of the Zodiac Cruise, an offshoot of the Swan Hellenic, a British cruise line, Stewart talked about how the cruise “captured a small iceberg for our cocktails tonight” while off the east coast of Greenland.

Stewart’s post was flooded with plenty of negative responses, accusing her of ignorance of current environmental problems, as well as being elitist and “tone-deaf” regarding climate change. Greenland is currently the fastest-growing area of the world, with the island’s ice melting at twice the rate of Antarctica.

However, some experts have said that Stewart’s use of iceberg is a non-issue.

Several have pointed out on X that Stewart did not take an iceberg out of the sea and that icebergs melt naturally.

A spokeswoman for the cruise line stated that bringing sea ice on board is a common practice for the cruise. It gives guests an opportunity to see an iceberg up close.

Stewart recently made headlines as Sports Illustrated‘s oldest-ever cover model for its swimsuit edition.
