31 Satisfying Times People Got Revenge on Lunch-Stealing Coworkers

Having a tasty lunch to look forward to is sometimes the only thing that gets you through the first half of the workday. Which is why, if you make your way to the company fridge and see that someone has stolen that lunch, it’s enough to make you consider going on a John Wick-style rampage to catch the perpetrator. 

The following Redditors got their revenge by executing master plans like filling cupcakes with shaving cream or putting laxatives in Gatorade. So beware lunch thieves — that sandwich you’re stealing from a coworker might be laced with dog food.

No_Goose_7390 1mo ago I was sitting chatting with someone in the break room. She was eating and I wasn't. She asked why I wasn't eating lunch. I told her because she was eating my lunch. She froze mid-chew. It was beautiful. Not revenge but she was mortified, caught in the act. Now I think about how young and broke we all were and I have a little more compassion. + 489 Reply ...
GothPenguin 1mo ago Informed them that my medication was mixed in with my food, told them that I wasn't exactly sure what my seizure medication would do to someone who didn't have seizures and that they may need to visit the ER. Basically I lied. I was on meds and they were the kind that you sprinkled over something soft that you didn't chew to take them but they were in my purse waiting for me to take them with yogurt. The thief had taken my clearly labeled sandwich but left my yogurt alone. + 825 Reply ...

iptvrocketbox 1mo ago Back in the day, someone kept stealing my Diet Cokes out of the office fridge. So I took a Mentos and put a needle and thread thru it, and carefully strung up the Mentos in the cap of a soda bottle. Sure enough it got stolen and when the thief opened it, the Mento fell in the Diet Coke and the whole thing exploded all over him, his desk, keyboard, monitor etc. There was a big commotion around his cubicle and I went over to see what was going on, knowing full well what had happened.

OhAces 1mo ago I had yogurt tubes in the freezer that kept disappearing one at a time during night shift. I had a few boxes of them, I took them out of the freezer and left them in a drawer for a month and then put them back in the freezer.

 1mo ago I made a blindingly hot curry. The funny part is that he had me dragged into the facility manager's office for 'booby trapping' my lunch. I ate a forkful like it was no big deal and then pointed out to the manager that, if he was okay with stealing from his coworkers, then he'd definitely be okay with stealing from the company. They started doing random bag checks after that and that guy always got his back checked when it happened. 105 Reply ...
Spin_Me 1mo ago We had an employee who stole food & drinks all the time. Let's call her Erica since that's her name. She had a habit of stealing my single-serve yogurts from the fridge. I used a syringe to inject ghost chili oil into a strawberry fruit on the bottom cup. What she thought was strawberry juice instead made her mouth burn, her eyes water, and made her vomit. I stayed late at the office that evening, fished the offending yogurt cup out of her trash, and deposited it in her top drawer so that she knew that someone

adoptagreyhound E 1mo ago I still remember a story told by one of my Aunts when I was a kid. Her lunch kept disappearing from the refrigerator at work. She made a nice looking sandwich with good bread, lettuce, tomato etc, and a good layer of canned dog food in the middle of all that. Found the thief when they started barfing mid- sandwich. You don't mess with Aunt Shirley, or her lunch. 20 Reply ...
3oh3kkco 1mo ago I had a coworker steal a mango smoothie from the fridge. Long story short, I knew without a doubt that she was the one who stole it, yet she denied it regardless. It was probably a $5 smoothie, and I couldn't have actually cared less about the smoothie itself, but was annoyed by the blatant lying about it. After she left work at the end of the day. I stole the M, A, N, G, and o keys off of her keyboard. I placed them in the fridge where my mango smoothie previously resided, strategically to spell
Dr_Dankenstein5G 1mo ago Found out who did it by waiting until everyone left for the day and walked around the entire office looking in everyone's trash cans until I found remnants of what used to be my $3 frozen microwave meal.

AJDrake405 1mo ago I didn't specially order the food in spite but one day I catered a huge order from a popular bbq place and didn't tell the coworker who stole peoples lunches (more than once from several people) When he came down to the break room and he saw most of the company in there enjoying the food he asked why nobody told him. I looked over at him and said we've been starving all week because someone keeps stealing lunches from the fridge, you never seem to complain about it so I didn't think you were hungry +

valhallaswyrdo 1mo ago Someone was stealing my coworker's gatorade everyday, he would bring 2 in and drink one at lunch then the other with dinner and every day the second one was missing when he went to eat his dinner.
