A man asks a Florida Chipotle worker to put spoonfuls of sour cream in his burrito as part of a TikTok prank. She responds with her own video when she sees herself on his page.
In a video with over 4.7 million views, TikTok prankster BIGNate.TV (@bignate.tv) walks up to the counter at Chipotle. The worker asks him if he wants rice.
He declines and tells her to put just sour cream on the burrito. She scoops one spoonful at a time into the tortilla, pausing to ask if that’s enough sour cream.
Finally, the TikToker says it’s enough, and the sour cream goes everywhere as she tries to roll the burrito. At the end of the clip, he gives the sour cream burrito to another customer and pretends to think the man is “homeless.”
While the TikToker’s video garners backlash from commenters who call it “unfunny,” the most surprising response is from the Chipotle worker, who responds in her own viral video.
How did the Chipotle worker respond to the viral prank?
In her own TikTok that recieved over 3.5 million views, TikToker Jordan (@jjordankatherineherr) walks into the back of Chipotle. She exclaims, “I can’t wait to see myself on TikTok later!”
She recounts the prankster’s bizarre request for a sour cream-only burrito. She says she warned him that the sour cream would spill out, but he didn’t care.
“I roll it and it goes everywhere. And he’s like, ‘That’s gross,'” she says.
Pranks involving food service workers have recieved heavy criticism on social media, with viewers pointing out that they don’t consent to being filmed doing their jobs. In a post on the subreddit r/IAmTheMainCharacter, users weigh in on the trend.
“Wish we made harassing people for social media a crime. Nothing like working a horrible job like retail and you have a— coming in to make videos on the back of your already s— day,” one laments.
“What an idiot, these service workers don’t need this crap, they’ve got enough on their plate for some moron to come by giving them a hard time,” another says.
How did viewers react to the prank?
In the comments of Jordan’s TikTok, viewers bash the prankster for his “immature” video.
“I love this perspective, it just makes him seem so weird,” a commenter writes.
“I hate creators who use other people for content, especially people trying to do their job. At least give the person a cut or something,” another says.
“Thank you for sharing your perspective. More ppl need to see this. This is why I will continue to shame the public when they act weird toward service providers,” a third adds.
Others praise Jordan for not reacting to the bizarre request in the moment.
“Good customer service. No questions asked… just give the dude his order and keep it pushing,” a viewer says.
“The only way they will stop is if we stop giving them content. Don’t react. Give them exactly what they want, and that’s it. I’ve been recorded so many times, but you’ll never see the videos bc I give the most bland responses and dull face,” a second adds.
In a comment, Jordan says the prankster sent her $100 after seeing her viral response.
