“Is Pepsi ok?” is the bane of many a restaurant goers experience.

Especially when the Pepsi is NOT ok, like in this video from TikTok user @dezirabell:

“This lady ordered a Diet Pepsi, and then she told me it was flat and asked if I could get her a new one, which it’s all the same soda line, so it’s not gonna be that different.”

“So I got her a new one, but I put some soda water in it, cause I figured she was probably looking for more, like bubbles.”

“Brought it to the table, she’s like, ‘oh, it already looks so much better. Thank you so much.'”
