A TOP food influencer has revealed just how much she forked out on grub for her videos – as well as her bumper payday from her TikTok videos.
Julsey, who goes under the social media name ATXJulsey, teams up with her hubby Michael Jefferson to document mouth-watering meal challenges and restaurant trips.
In her latest TikTok clip, the Texas-based influencer – who met her spouse over foodie first and second dates in 2022 – delved into the financial side of her often-glam outings.
Julsey, who became engaged to her co-star in 2024 before marrying in Austin a year later, titled her clip: “How much we spent on food videos and made off TikTok in February 2026!”
Julsey then rattled through the venues they visited, how much they paid out initially before letting slip how much income they received.
In total, she told how they spent $2,400, or £1,791 on their lip-smacking feasts.
