What was the reaction?

While netizens found this whole thing hilarious, another snap was attached wherein the bakery brand refused to provide a resolution to the complaint, as it blamed it on the different stores of the bakery and how this whole thing was non-refundable or exchangeable. This also raised concerns about the online ordering platforms and the brands they are associated with, as this totally ruined the day of the customer. What is your take on this?
