In a previous TikTok, Mandy shares how she and her family have COVID-19 and are in quarantine, hence opting for grocery delivery. She says she ordered Gatorade, Pedialyte and also let the shopper pick “replacements of something if they were out of stock.:

“Well, I was being a mom and didn’t realize that they were messaging me so they just picked whatever for us,” she continues. “Here’s what they picked.”

She pans the camera to the table where there are 34 boxes of Hamburger Helper’s beef stroganoff.

“What am I going to do with all this beef stroganoff? It’s not even different flavors, nothing, it’s just beef stroganoff,” she says in exasperation.

Many users told Mandy in her viral video’s comments section to donate the beef stroganoff to a local women’s shelter or even a food pantry.

“Then your local food banks & shelters are gonna be v appreciative! Right?” someone else commented.

Others chimed in with their own Instacart bloopers.

“No im dying bc one time they brought me 20 tomato’s,” one user claimed.

“This happened to me once. I was given 10 bags of pork rinds and 6 cans of mixed nuts. I had ordered stuff to make chicken noodle soup and sandwiches,” another wrote.

As someone else pointed out, “I feel like this is what you call a win.”
