A Maryland man is accusing his local Chick-fil-A of racism after he received his to-go order with the name “Monkeys” on it.
Marquise Vanzego went through the drive-thru in LaPlata on Aug. 23 and ordered chicken strips, fries and an iced tea/lemonade drink, he told TODAY.
When an employee then called out an order for “Monkeys” instead of Marquise, Vanzego – who is Black – was shocked to learn it was his.
“Your heart has that little sting in it, that’s what it felt like,” he told TODAY.
“You start to think about all the other incidents that may have occurred that you heard about on the news with racial profiling.”
Vanzego spoke with the on-duty manager, who apologized and offered to refund his order.
“I’m going to write a letter to corporate about this, this is very offensive,” Vanzego told the manager in a video of the conversation he shared on Instagram.
He also shared a video of the moment he went inside the store to confront the drive-thru employee, but was denied the opportunity to speak with him by the manager.
Some social media commenters suggested the drive-thru intercom system was to blame for the offensive misprint, though Vanzego told TODAY that he placed his order directly with a “young white male” who was standing outside the store taking orders.
The store owner, John Flatley, later told Vanzego that he was not terminating the employee because they were under the age of 18.
Vanzego was also told that the employee had written down the name they heard, he said.
“I believe that he should be held accountable for what he’s done,” Vanzego said.
When Vanzego’s own children, who are now adults, stepped out of line, “they had to deal with the consequences,” he added.
“I understand, he’s a young man, he’s 17, he’s still learning. But he also needs to know that there are consequences when you do things like that.”
