One of the worst parts about ordering delivery or takeout is how cold or soggy food can get after leaving the kitchen. It really dampens the experience of eating out, making it not as enjoyable as it should be.
This was exactly what a dad of three named Josh Williams wanted to avoid when he went to Chipotle to pick up some food. He placed his order, but instead of getting full meals, he asked employees to package every ingredient separately. He says that he did this because he wanted to eat at home, which was also 45 minutes away from the closest Chipotle.
He posted a photo of the separated ingredients, asking followers if this was a genius hack, or if he was just strange. He didn't get the responses he expected, instead sparking an entire debate about the service industry.
While some people were clearly appalled that he would make the Chipotle employees go through so much trouble, others defended him, saying that his circumstances called for it. Since posting the photo, he's been defending his actions to strangers. However, he doesn't seem to to be taking the criticism too personally!
Chipotle restaurants are a favorite for many people who want a quick, filling meal.
But the meals are also known for being quite messy. With all the sauces and dressings, they're not meant to sit out for too long. In fact, the food can get cold and soggy quite quickly!
That's exactly what Josh Williams, a dad of three, wanted to avoid when he ordered from one of the chain's restaurants. He ended up getting all the ingredients separately, each in their own little salad dressing cups.
He posted a photo of his hack online, spurring a nationwide conversation about his behavior.
Many people said that his choice to separate all the ingredients was unnecessary and inconsiderate of the restaurant's employees.
Others pointed out that he was creating pointless waste with those plastic salad dressing cups.
But the dad stuck to his guns and defended himself, saying that this was the only way the food was going to stay the way it was supposed to by the time he arrived home, which was 45 minutes away.
Others came to his defense, saying that the technique was genius.
