People who work in food service have to put up with a lot. Just look at some of the actual food requests that restaurant employees have received.
This particular Ask Reddit thread asked workers at Subway and other restaurants to share “the strangest order you’ve ever had from a customer.” The answers did not disappoint. Here are some of the strange requests that were actually honored:
- One guy ordered the same thing every day: 2 pounds of lettuce on some bread.
- A steak and cheese with a half bottle of ketchup.
- A 6-inch Honey Wheat, just condiments. All of them.
- Foot long on white, double mayo, salt, pepper.
- Tuna sandwich, extra pickles, and 2 Splenda packages on top.
- Cold cut combo with an entire bottle of oil on it.
- A black olive sandwich with just a little ham.
- A slab of dough with some cherry tomatoes on top. The guy threw away the dough after eating the tomatoes.
- A calzone stuffed with just ketchup.
- Western omelette – hold the eggs. WHAT!?!
