30 Times Restaurants Understood People’s Orders A Little Too Literally

Published 4 years ago

Every chef will tell you that custom orders can be a real hassle. An egg salad with not egg? A triple decaf espresso? A vegan taco with extra sour cream? You just never know what unusual order a client will place! However, instead of refusing to take these crazy orders, some restaurants are choosing to take them word for word, often leaving the customers surprised.

People are sharing photos of the times restaurants understood their custom orders a little too literally and they’re absolutely hilarious. From giant donuts to mountains of pepperoni, check out some excellent examples of “delicious compliance” in the gallery below!

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
