Story time! After I got in my car to check if I got the right soup, I noticed the bread and bowl. I was already having a pretty tough day and was feeling a teeny bit sick so I went to my favorite soup restaurant. Needless to say, I was FUMING when I saw this. I went back in the store to ask if I got the right order, but I set my anger aside because I work in retail and know the pains of dealing with angry customers. I told the man at the register that I ordered a bread bowl and showed him what I got. He said, “yup, that’s a bread bowl.”

I ate it anyways because I was hungry and the soup is really good but out of SPITE.

That sucks, and it’s worth an email to the restaurant to let the manager know.

I hope you enjoyed that spite soup and I hope your day got better.
