Movie Theater Employee Gives Regular Coke Instead Of Diet, And Here’s How Internet Responds
1.1Mviews
Food allergies are no joke, and for some the wrong ingredient can literally mean the difference between life and death. Despite this however, certain people in the service industry seem to take great pleasure in giving customers precisely what they DON’T want.
This was recently highlighted by an Imgur user named Amrikia, who posted about somebody boasting about having deliberately served people regular coke instead of the diet coke they’d asked for. In response to this, other people then came forward with their own stories, from people with Celiac disease being purposely served food containing gluten, to people with stomach ulcers being deliberately given whole milk in their latte instead of the soy they’d asked for. It seems that some spiteful people just want to make other people’s lives difficult, but perhaps they should think about what they’re doing, as what might seem like a harmless prank could actually have very serious repercussions.

Sick or not sick, it's a choice you have to respect. Why is that concept so hard to grasp?
Because "I know better than you". Sure, roll your eyes, bitch to your friends about how a customer who orders 16 large pizza and a diet coke because "cutting out sugar makes you lose fat"... or whatever makes your day. However; you are paid to help people with their food orders, not force your lifestyle onto others.
Right? Giving people what they ordered is called DOING YOUR JOB. Why is that so hard to grasp?
Just in case people want to know why summer is even harder for us, it's because our sugar gets burned a lot faster than in winter, especially for those like me who are very active.
Also, coke zero tastes better than the brown corn syrup that is coke! I am hypoglycemic though & I really have to time & combine my sugar right in the summer or ya know, take a trip to the E.R.
I can eat pizza and cut sugar because i want to. Why is that a roll eye or anyones business? Wtf
Just don't risk it everyone. Just give the person what he/she ordered. It's not worth getting into a lawsuit or worse killing someone just to try to prove a point.
I don't understand why this is such a difficult concept to grasp. "No milk, please." = This person possibly has an allergy to milk. No milk. You could potentially kill someone with your petty behaviour.
Even if they don't have an allergy to milk, if someone doesn't have dairy (same with red meat) for a long time and suddenly have it, it's miserable to deal with: cramps, nausea, diarrhea, etc.
Precisely
To prove what point? Why is there a point on prefering no sugar?
Those comments show pretty well how unfortunate when someone's diet for his/her illnes become the latest trend of picky assholes.
On the bright side, It does expand the food choices for people with these illnesses.
I love that now I can get soy milk almost everywhere, because of my allergy to milk. When I was small my parents couldn't get it regularly.
Not true. My baby son was born with an allergy to cow milk. Given cow milk or milk products, he'd get an agonizing rash all over his body and swell up. Fortunately, even when eating out (after starting to eat solid food) he very rarely had reactions, simply because we had such a wide variety of vegan food to choose from - a direct reaction to the current veganism trend. I still remember how hard it was in the late 80s to get anything void of meat or dairy when I decided to become a picky asshole and eat vegetarian.
Or how unfortunate it is when people decide to be pretentious and not listen to other people...
