One of the perks of ordering food online (besides not having to cook) is being able to personalize your meal just the way you like it with the special instructions feature. And for Seamless, the brand experiences first-hand how New Yorkers submit some exceptionally detailed and often hilarious requests.

In the latest installment of its 'How New York Eats' campaign, Seamless and agency BBH New York ran with this inspiration and dug into the data of real customer instructions to highlight some of these crazy requests. We’ve brought them to life throughout the city with TV, social and a collection of illustrated subway ads.

The campaign not only highlights a popular product feature, but continues to celebrate the thousands of diverse people who rely on Seamless every day to deliver their unique food preferences, and the variety of tastes that make NYC such an amazing food destination.

The campaign features real-life special instructions such as:

“Please make one additional tiny version of my order for my hamster.”

“Please keep pita separate. One person doesn’t like pita. Other two look forward to pita."

“Extra ketchup, please. I ordered a smoothie, but I am out of ketchup.”
