On Wednesday's (March 13) episode of Morning Live, Gethin and Kym welcomed food waste expert Kate onto the show as she showed the audience at home the best ways to freeze their vegetables.
While demonstrating a hack, she explained how to blanch the vegetables, but she slipped up and said, "If you do not have time to blanch the carrots or if you just can't be a***d."
Kate realised she had made a mistake as the hosts' jaws dropped, the star quickly corrected herself: "Sorry, I can't be bothered."
Gethin and Kym laughed it off without addressing it any further, however, the clip featuring the phrase was posted on the show's X account.

The food waste feature was in response to the report that the public waste 4.4 million potatoes annually, so Morning Live aimed to show viewers how freezers can be used more to curb food waste.
Kate is known on social media as Full Freezer and is known for her money-saving tips.
Before her mishap, she had demonstrated how to defrost mash without making it watery and how to avoid chopped vegetables clumping after freezing.
Her slip came after BBC Breakfast star Jon Kay took a brutal swipe at Morning Live presenter Gethin Jones' outfit choice live on air.
The 54-year-old’s co-host, Sally Nugent, was gobsmacked and warned him he may have crossed a line during the exchange.

During the brief crossover, Gethin donned a black zipped sweatshirt with white stripes across his chest, while Kym sported a red jumper and wide-leg trousers with a black and white stripe down the middle.
Jon’s co-star Sally clocked that both Morning Live presenters were wearing stripes.
She said: "Loving the stripes both. I like the way you've coordinated there." Kym said: "Thank you," while Gethin proudly said: "[You're] welcome".
Jon then cheekily interjected: "It's like a pedestrian crossing, isn't it? Live from BBC One at 9:30am, Morning Live."
Gethin and Kym took no offence to the comment and laughed it off while Sally looked around the studio in shock.
Morning Live is on BBC on weekdays at 9:30 am.
