Hungry Florida Raccoons Pull Off Daring DoorDash Taco Heist
I have a Taco Thief living in my house in Cape Coral. Let me tell you about Widget, my fat dog. Widget’s always hungry, and you can’t leave food unattended for a second, or she’ll make it disappear. Last week , she pulled a Taco Bell bag right off the dining room table. It’s bad enough I haver to worry about my dog looking to steal my food the moment I turn my back. Now I have to worry about the neighbor hood raccoons too?
According to Fox35, a Florida woman discovered a group of raccoons had stolen her DoorDash delivery. Apparently, raccoons are aware of Taco Tuesdays! Caterina Sevares, who had just gotten out of the shower, was waiting for her late-night taco delivery from “Talkin’ Tacos,” only to be greeted by a gang of raccoons.
Taco Heist Video:
Sevares, shocked to find her food missing and a pack of hungry raccoons in its place, captured the scene on her phone. These critters, polished off everything but the tortillas. They were not playing around either. The raccoons stared her down ready to throw down, one even standing on its hind legs. Her TikTok video of the raccoon heist quickly went viral, racking up millions of views and sparking a flurry of amused comments from viewers.
Now, I can only hope My dog doesn’t get any smart ideas of linking up with the Raccoons in my neighborhood. Oh, the chaos they would create. There’s always plenty of Uber Eats or DoorDash being dropped of around my neck of the woods. They wouldn’t have to go very far to fill their fat little bellies. I can see her looking at me as I type. The little food felon. All this talk about eating was making me hungry, Great. I can feel my dog plotting already.
