When you order food, you want to be able to trust that what you order is prepared and delivered with care and respect.
Unfortunately, some people like to take out their anger on others in the most disgusting ways possible.
A food delivery driver in the US has become infamous for what he did to his customers’ food.
13-year-old Elias Crisanto and his mother were at home on a Saturday night and got hungry.
Just like many others, they wanted to enjoy a tasty meal on the weekend and decided to have food delivered to their home.

They ordered the food through the company “DoorDash,” specializing in delivering food from various restaurants to homes.
But when the driver arrived at the door, the family’s hidden surveillance camera captured his disrespectful behavior…
Disgusting behavior
The man, unaware he was being filmed, looks at his phone and realizes he did not receive a tip for the delivery. He then leans over the food and spits on it before walking back to his car.
“I could have thrown up. I mean, who does that?” Elias told Local 10.
Elias and his mother told the news outlet Local 10 that the food cost $30 and they gave a $3 tip.

Elias reported the driver immediately
After the disgusting incident, the smart 13-year-old sent an email to the courier company asking for his money back. However, even though he attached a video of the courier spitting on the food, he initially did not get a refund. When he then called customer service, he finally got his money back.
The company also announced that the driver no longer works for them. In an email to Elias, they wrote:
“We do not tolerate this kind of behavior and have therefore taken the step to remove this person from our platform. This Dasher will no longer be able to deliver orders on DoorDash,” the email stated. “The results of all internal investigations will remain confidential.”
Disgusting man went viral
The video clip of the delivery driver’s disgusting behavior has gone viral and has shocked many people.
“I’m also a driver and you have the right to not pick up the food if they don’t tip, but this is very disgusting,” wrote someone on Instagram.
But the situation has also proven to be a real turning point. Some believe Elias and his mother could have given a better tip.
“The buyer is wrong for not giving a tip and the driver is wrong for doing what he did… but the driver is really wrong because it’s not his only delivery of the day,” writes one person.
