TikToker Nara Smith explains why she always makes things from scratch

Nara Smith has fired back at critics who have suggested she lacks a job, addressing their comments about her content.

The TikToker also opened up about her struggle with Lupus.

Nara is well-known for her food recipes, which she prepares from scratch due to her prolonged struggle with eczema flare-ups.

The 22-year-old frequently shares her recipes on TikTok with her 8.7 million followers.

While many praise the social media star for her creativity, some critics claim she is "always in the kitchen" or "has no job."

Nara responded to these comments in a TikTok video on Monday.

"I wasn't aware that finding joy and cooking for my husband and kids would automatically mean that I just slave away in the kitchen, I don't have a job, and I have a whole production team making that happen," she shared.

"To clarify, none of that is true.”

"I'm a working mom... but cooking has always been a massive part of my life."

She explained that her journey started after her Lupus diagnosis, which required her to alter her diet and lifestyle.

Following her response to the critics, Nara discussed her upcoming trip to New York with her baby, Whimsy.

Fans flooded the comment section to support Nara's response and show their backing for the mom-of-three.
