Mozzarella sticks heal all wounds.

The next time you eat enough takeout for a small family by yourself, pour out some ketchup for this brave diner.

Redditor adri164, who works at Toronto takeout spot Fresco's Fish and Chips, shared a receipt Friday from a customer who ordered the true motherlode of fried, delicious foods: Three orders of mozzarella sticks and fried pickles, meaning this person was about to have either a perfect night, or an extremely terrible one.

But the true *chef's kiss* moment here was the comments section on his receipt. "Yes - I meant to order 3 mozzarella sticks," the customer wrote. "Please don't judge me. I'm having a bad week and was so excited they were back on the menu."

And there's the moral of the story, readers: order as much takeout as you want. You don't need an elaborate excuse when you find three forks in your greasy paper bag. Sometimes, it's not the destination—you just need to love the journey.

Maybe even consider writing a funny note of your own—if nothing else, there are worse ways to end up Reddit-famous.
