👋 Before you go

Male Instacart shoppers have become notorious for being clueless and consistently messing up orders. It’s gotten to the point that some shoppers, especially women, wish the app allowed them to block men from doing their Instcart orders.

In a viral video with more than a million views, @lgbtavenger says that she placed an Instacart order that included chips and salsa, but one part of that classic duo was missing from her order

“When you get a male Instacart driver who claims there’s no salsa in the entire grocery store so now I have chips and marinara,” @lgbtavenger wrote in the text overlay as she lets out a fake scream.

Sam’s Club worker backed up the claim that men are bad at shopping in another viral TikTok mocking men who can’t find readily available items in the store.
