It can be easy to disregard people’s dietary requests, like using regular flour instead of gluten free flour when baking, especially when you’re not the one who has to deal with the consequences. But in one man’s case, Starbucks seriously screwed up his order by using regular milk instead of soy milk—and his feedback for them on Facebook is going viral.
Demit Strato posted on Monday that the barista “ignored” his order of soy milk. The result? “I’ve pooped 11 times since the A.M. My bottom hurts from all the wiping.” He also wants to clarify that he doesn’t order soy milk because it sounds fancy, saying “I order soy milk so that my bottom doesnt blast fire for 4 hours.” His tragic-but-hilarious comment is going viral with thousands of likes and shares.
TBH the best part is the ending, where he writes, “I’m not a Charmander. Thank you for listening to my rant. P.S. I’m writing this from the comfort OF MY TOILET.” People could definitely relate, commenting, “same,” “I feel this on a personal level,” “this poor guy I understand the pain” and “this is my life.” Though I hope Strato is all right, I’m cracking up at the post and commentary. It’s beautiful how people can come together over the shared pain of accidentally ingesting cow’s milk.
Hopefully Starbucks gets its act together so this man doesn’t have to suffer anymore.
