Vegan colleague Crystal caught on camera eating a coworker’s beef lasagna, exposing her as the one behind the missing lunches: ‘Now she brings a salad every day and avoids eye contact like we didn’t catch her in 4K with beef on her breath’

Office fridge theft is a classic workplace whodunit, but nothing spices it up like a self-proclaimed vegan caught red-handed with a mouthful of beef lasagna. For weeks, snacks and sodas vanished, but when entire lunches started disappearing, the team chat lit up with complaints. Suspicion quickly landed on Crystal, the only one not lamenting her missing food and the first to lecture you about the ethics of your microwaved leftovers.

  • After a particularly carnivorous lasagna from home went missing, despite being double-bagged, labeled, and plastered with a warning, enough was enough. With the help of a trusty coworker, a quick review of the office cameras revealed Crystal in all her glory, container in hand, fork poised for action. The confrontation was priceless. Crystal, mid-bite, tried to claim she thought it was her own lasagna. The same Crystal who practically faints at the smell of cheese and considers meat a crime against nature. 

  • So i (30M) kept noticing my food disappearing from the office fridge. nothing dramatic at first just snacks, a soda.

  • but then my full lunch went missing. turns out i wasn't the only one. a bunch of us were complaining in.

  • like, side-eyes you if you microwave anything that "smells like animal suffering." anyway, last friday my mom sent me leftover beef lasagna.

  • like, cheesy, meaty, absolutely not vegan- friendly lasagna. I labeled it, double- bagged it, and even put a sticky note that said "DO NOT TOUCH."

  • guess what? lunch break comes, it's GONE. again. me and my officemate (shoutout to jordan lol) decided to check the cameras outside the pantry.

  • nothing sneaky, just general office cams. and there she was. opening my container. fork already in hand.
    via snakeeyes1272
  • so we walked in, and there she was, halfway through MY lasagna. we go, "yo... is that my lunch?"
    via snakeeyes1272
  • and crystal literally goes, "wait, i thought this was mine... i brought lasagna too?" ma'am. -

  • you're VEGAN. she started stumbling, saying she was "just really hungry" and "it's not that serious."
    via snakeeyes1272

  • Suddenly, her vegan convictions melted faster than mozzarella in a microwave. She fumbled excuses about hunger and insisted it wasn’t a big deal. HR, however, disagreed. After a long chat, Crystal swapped her fridge raids for daily salads and now avoids eye contact like she’s afraid someone will offer her a meatball. 

  • but like... it IS that serious when you've been stealing people's food and eating meat on the low.
    via snakeeyes1272
  • reported it. HR had a very long chat with her. she hasn't touched the fridge since.
