In a peculiar incident, a man tried to order flowers for his wife and in return he got a bizarre substitute option that left him surprised. Uploaded on Twitter handle named ‘@hagmnn’, the screenshotted image shows the substitute that the online shopping site has offered the man in place of flowers. In the caption, the uploader uses a sarcastic tone as he wrote, “Can't wait to surprise my wife with an organic red bell pepper!”.

“One of the items in your Whole Foods Market order is out of stock, please review substitute option(s)”, says the screenshotted image that has been uploaded. Below in the options it shows the ‘Rose 12 Stems, 40cms Whole Trade Guarantee’ that are priced at $12.99, being substituted by a red bell pepper which has been described as, ‘Pepper bell red Whole Trade Guarantee organic’.

Yum".
