Not so much odd as just ...not really suitable - I ordered a cauliflower to make cauliflower cheese with and got...a lettuce.

When I had my big dogs, I used to order 6 trays of 24 cans of dogfood. Four times in a row I got 6 individual CANS of food. Not even enough to get us through an evening. So I figured if I was going to have to go out and buy dog food, I might as well do all the rest of the shopping while I was there.

i find it annoying when vegi stuff is substituted for non vegi i would hope someone would realise i had all non meat stuff so over ride all the suggestions. most annoying was i ordered ingredients to make meals from scratch for me except for a plain pizza as late delivery so just a quick thing to cook. nope pepperoni so had to turn round and cook late
