LONGWOOD, Florida — A fast-food loving black bear stole a $45 Taco Bell order from the front porch of a home in the Orlando suburb of Longwood moments after the Uber Eats driver delivered it, an Orlando television station reported.

This is no Florida man story, as there’s no evidence a Floridian dressed in a bear costume stole the food. Rather, the criminal was a real-life Florida black bear estimated to weigh 300 to 400 pounds, WOFL-TV reported.

The caper happened Friday, and it was captured on the home’s Ring camera. The video shows the beast sauntering up to the front door and grabbing the bag in its mouth. Then, a short time later, it comes back to steal the drinks.

Yo Quiero Taco Bell!

“He came, and he grabbed the food — then he came again for the soda,” Nicole Castro told the TV station.

When the family opened the front door about 10 minutes later, the Ring video captures their reaction: “The bear took the food!”

Uber Eats reimbursed the family for the stolen food, the TV station reported.

I remember when a $45 Taco Bell order would feed 20 teens.

I was about to say “they are pretty lucky they only have those tiny bears down there” then I saw it was 3-400. Thats pretty big down there. Definitely not something you want to argue with.

“…then he came again for the soda”

Next time it’s for you. Unfortunately, that’s a dead bear walking now.

How long after the video did the Black Bear come down with a case of explosive diarrhea?

Next time, he’ll skip the fast food and go straight for the DoorDash deliverer.

You would think that Florida resident would know better than to alloe their hot spicy food to be left outside where the wind would carry that aroma.

Regularly see them on the various RING Cameras in the neighborhood. Never put the trash out overnight unless you want to clean up the street in the morning! We are just East of Oviedo, FL.
