A restaurant server took to TikTok to complain about “the crunchiest mom” who was having trouble with the limited and unhealthy options on the restaurant’s children’s menu.
The video was posted on the platform by the creator Shinshinhas generated over 175,000 views since it was posted on February 8.
The video begins with the creator saying, “The other day at work, I had the chewiest mom on my table and this is what happened.”
she continues. Two children, mother and father. OK? So I went there to take their order and said our kids menu was not extensive at all. Mac and cheese, grilled cheese, chicken tenders, a child’s dream. ”
The server said the family order and when it was the children’s turn, the mom said. But can I substitute chicken tenders for her chicken wings? ”
The creator says: The chicken wings prices are not the same as the kids menu. cannot be substituted. She said, “Okay, let’s have some chicken tenders.”

However, it is said that here the mother scolded the worker. And children have three choices, all of which are unhealthy.”
The creator says he was joking. Just like I used to eat when I was a kid. ”
But then his mother allegedly said, “No, it’s actually infuriating.”
In response, the server says the mother suggested ordering vegetables as a side on the adult menu, but of course the toddler who ordered preferred the fries to the vegetables. We agreed with the desire to eat, but the creator says it also followed the classic expression of customer service frustration: Ask to speak to the server’s manager.
After she consulted with her manager and determined that her mother was indeed “real,” TikToker said, the manager spoke to her mother and, in the creator’s words, lol, this is hilarious.
As the creator assessed to conclude the video, “There is no pull here…I don’t make a kids menu.”
While sympathetic to her plight, the commenter also recognized that she probably couldn’t win against this customer.
“I stayed away from people like this,” said one. “You don’t get that hint either way.”
Another wondered, “First of all, would any child want more vegetables than French fries?”
It makes sense, but one person replied: That’s kind of the balance I’m aiming for. ”
“I used to work at an Italian restaurant,” said another commenter. .”
It elicited “LMAO” from its creator.
Through comments, TikToker revealed key elements of the story. One asked bluntly, “Did she at least flip???”
The creator said, “To my horror, LMAO. However, I wasn’t expecting much after that encounter.
