A mother from Montclair, N.J., ordered in because she wanted to take a break from cooking, the New York Post reports. She ordered a pizza, which was delivered using the contactless method due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

After the food was left on her porch, the mother, unfortunately, discovered that a squirrel had beaten her to the food.

Doug Barlow ordered a pizza from Pizza Hut this past weekend, Fox 17 reports. The driver who delivered the order is probably thankful that Barlow was hungry that night, as the Pizza Hut worker received a $100 tip.

Footage of the encounter was captured by Barlow’s home security camera. It shows the driver starts heading back to his car before realizing what just happened.
