When you've had a busy day, it can be disappointing to come home and find the cupboard bare.
So a takeaway is an easy option to remedy it, on those days you can't be bothered to venture back outside.
Or sometimes, you just feel like treating yourself to a meal that you didn't have to cook.
In times of need, a takeaway can remedy a rubbish day.
So it's then truly disappointing to discover that your meal hasn't arrived, while the rest of your house tucks in.
But one woman was left in stitches after claiming she spotted proof that her meal was eaten by her delivery driver.
Katelyn Haun, who lives in Georgia, US, ordered from Taco Bell through Door Dash - a service similar to Deliveroo or Uber Eats.
In a TikTok, she said: "So I ordered Taco Bell today. I go outside and the bag is ripped open, which is fine, things happen.
"It's cool, no big deal. I get inside, I divvy all the food out to the family and go to grab my food."
Katelyn had ordered a Doritos Locos Taco - which is a taco made from nacho cheese Doritos, that is filled with beef, lettuce and cheese.
She realised her order was missing, which wasn't a "big deal" so she decided to call and secure a refund.
But she was left in stitches after checking the picture the driver had taken to prove that the takeaway had been delivered.
In the picture, she claimed she could see orange dust on the driver's hands that looked suspiciously like the colouring you find on the popular tortilla crisps.
Katelyn said: "Then I get this picture from my Dasher...y'all, tell me that ain't Dorito dust on this woman's fingers.
"Tell me y'all this woman didn't eat my taco now."
People were left in stitches at the woman's detective skills, as one viewer joked: "I would have texted the driver 'nice fingers' and sent the pic they left."
Another said: "Her fingers were in the shot cause she had to hold her phone weird because of the cheese dust."
