50 Times People Ordered Food Only To Be Served These Hilariously Bad Meals

Getting scammed sucks. Especially when it leaves you with a growling stomach. So to give you an idea of what to look out for, we at Bored Panda compiled a list of pictures, depicting the moments when people received not what they thought they had ordered.

These include sad sandwiches, minimum-effort pizzas, missing ingredients, and so much disappointment that you can almost hear Gordon Ramsay cursing "Bloody hell, what a disaster!" Bon appétit

#35 This Pizza We Ordered At A Restaurant In Altoona, Pennsylvania

We were driving from Pittsburgh to Philly and stopped by at Altoona as we were hungry. We went to this one restaurant and the waiter strongly suggested that we try their specialty, the Altoona-style pizza. We assumed it'd be good and was popular for a reason since it was named after the city. Little did we know it was going to be this atrocity.

Apparently, this type of pizza was only served at the Altoona Hotel. But the hotel caught fire some years ago and had to be shut down. The other local restaurants then picked up the mantle and started making the Altoona-style pizza.
