Customer goes viral after \u201clove\u201d gets him free sandwich Wikimedia CommonsA man has gone viral after he bought a sandwich for lunch at CAVA, only to find that when he looked at the bill, a special note had been written by the server. In a post that\u2019s gained more than 3 million views on Twitter\/X, a man posted a surprising bill from the Mediterranean fast-dining restaurant, CAVA. The customer posted his tale on the platform, alongside a picture of his receipt which clearly lists the falafel pita for $11.05, but the total is displayed as $0. To the left of the total, we see the word \u2018love,\u2019 written. It reads: \u201cWas the guy who made my sandwich in love with me?? I tried to pay and he said \u2018You\u2019re all set\u2019 and this was the receipt.\u201d After the receipt hit the internet, people couldn\u2019t wait to share their thoughts, with many wondering why the man had not returned to visit the server. \u201cSigns point to yes,\u201d one person said, answering the man\u2019s question as to whether or not they were in love with him. \u201cYep, and instead of talking to him you\u2019re posting it for likes from strangers,\u201d someone wrote, wondering why they didn\u2019t go back and ask them for a date \u2014 to which the man replied, \u201cI\u2019m straight.\u201d \u201cNGL this is kinda romantic. They really went ahead and added love in the receipt,\u201d another wrote. \u201cThis happens to me sometimes and I think \u2018still got it\u2019 but then I realize I just look homeless,\u201d one joked. It turns out that none of these theories are actually true. David Garcia, manager of the Huntersville CAVA revealed to NBC Charlotte back in 2018, that the chain\u2019s cash registers have a \u2018love\u2019 button on the register, allowing server\u2019s to make someone\u2019s day a little brighter. \u201cSometimes we\u2019ll use the button if we notice someone\u2019s having a bad day, or if they forgot their wallet, or if we see a customer who\u2019s always in our store.\u201d \u201cWe try to use the button at least twice a day,\u201d he revealed. However, just because the button exists, that doesn\u2019t mean that customers can take advantage of it whenever they choose to, according to an X\/Twitter post by CAVA itself. Some CAVA customers had claimed the love button was all a lie, writing: \u201cYour employees are lying about the love button \u2013 that\u2019s false advertisement,\u201d which prompted a response from the fast food chain. \u201cHi! The love button does exist but it\u2019s up to the discretion of our Team Members. For their sake, please do not ask them to comp your meals,\u201d CAVA wrote. This isn\u2019t the first time we\u2019ve witnessed acts of kindness from fast-food restaurants. Chick-fil-A has a \u2018sunshine week,\u2019 where they sometimes leave heartfelt, handwritten notes in customers\u2019 food bags.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
