(Jennifer Stagg, KSL 5 News) -- A young mother of twins took potty training to the table — the dining table — in a popular Utah deli Tuesday. And the picture an onlooker snapped and posted on Facebook has a lot of people talking.

If anyone understands how stressful potty-training can be, it's mother of three, Kimberly Decker. In fact, she just finished potty training her little boy and couldn't leave her house for several days during the process. That's why she was so shocked at what she witnessed Tuesday at the Thanksgiving Point Deli.

"I noticed that this lady was having her two — she had two twins, two little girls about 2-and-a-half years old, sitting on what I thought were booster seats," Decker said.

But after doing a double take, she realized they weren't booster seats, they were child port-a-potties.

"She had to undo the jumpsuits, and take them all the way down so they were completely nude, with the jumpsuits down to their ankles just eating their chicken nuggets, sitting on little toddler potties," Decker said.

Decker snapped a picture on her cell phone, while she and her friend stared in awe.
