Restaurant Staff Reveal The Oddest Reasons Why Customers Sent Their Food Back And We Are Speechless
You're gearing up for a big meal at a restaurant you've been dying to try. Just when you're about to have a taste of the soup, you notice a single strand of hair floating merrily, what do you do?
[ ADVERTISEMENT ]
In a scenario like the one above, the best course of action is to call on your server and point out the problem. It can be inconvenient but you have to politely ask for a replacement.
If you send food back for a legitimate reason, you are not a "Karen." You are simply a paying customer who doesn't want to eat soup that has been contaminated by another person's hair.
That is not unreasonable or entitled behavior. There are still some cases when sending food back can come across as rude and will raise a lot of eyebrows.
If you're an unreasonable customer like the ones listed below, you will certainly get a lot of attention from fellow diners. The restaurant staff will also remember you and talk about you for a long time.
The customers below made their mark when they complained about their food for the most absurd reasons. Have you ever heard of someone complaining that their tomato soup tasted too much like tomatoes?
Well, you're about to read the most ridiculous reasons why people sent their food back at the restaurant

It's difficult to believe that there are people like these living among us. Who eats almost an entire chicken and proceeds to go to the cashier to ask for a refund?
This is why it's difficult to believe one-sided Yelp reviews. Customers can be horribly wrong but they're just too proud to admit it and stories like these give us a clearer picture of what restaurant staffs have to endure daily.
