#46: The Mistaken Muffin
The situation in this story sounds totally strange, but it really did happen! A family friend of this storyteller had ordered a muffin at a cafe one day, and was completely freaked out when she realized that the guy sitting next to her kept grabbing pieces of it off her plate. Instead of confronting him, she let him eat it but was fuming the entire time. When he got up and ordered another fresh muffin, this lady saw her chance for revenge.
As payback for eating what she perceived to be her food, she promptly grabbed the guy’s new pastry off his plate and walked off without a word. Feeling pretty good about herself, she went to store the muffin in her bag, only to find a muffin already in there. Turns out the guy wasn’t eating her food at all! They just happened to have ordered the same thing and she totally forgot that she had stored her food in her bag. Whoops.
