Eager Starbucks customer learns the coffee giant has drive-thru cameras at the worst possible time

A TikTok video of a woman getting extremely excited over the rare Starbucks “mummy cookie” has gone viral, and it’s capturing the hearts of many. The 22-second clip, shared by user @tiktokerlil, begins with the woman asking at the drive-thru if Starbucks has the mummy cookie available. When the answer is yes, she absolutely loses it—shaking her body in pure excitement. The Starbucks worker sees this on the camera and reacts with, “Oh my God,” prompting a playful, slightly embarrassed apology from her.

The video has sparked an outpouring of reactions from viewers. Many are swooning over the Starbucks worker’s comforting and supportive response, with comments like, “He was a little flirty, and I love it,” and “He’s got such a calming voice.” Others find her over-the-top enthusiasm relatable, with many Starbucks employees chiming in saying they too get this excited about the elusive mummy cookie.

The video also led to a wave of curiosity about the cameras at the drive-thru, with viewers expressing shock that the workers can actually see customers as they pass through. Some even shared their own embarrassing drive-thru stories, like one user who recalled crying during an order, only to quickly recover before getting to the window.

And of course, the biggest mystery that remains is the passenger in the car: the worker’s offhand question, “What are you wearing?” has left many TikTokers speculating and demanding answers, with comments like, “Wait, what was the passenger wearing?” sparking even more intrigue.

While the mummy cookie may not be as beloved as the classic chocolate chip (which remains the nation’s favorite, according to a survey), it’s certainly earned a special place in the hearts of Starbucks fans, thanks to this viral video.
