A five-year-old girl from Colorado melted hearts on TikTok after she cried about missing her favorite food sauce. Astoria “Stori” Massa, a red-haired little girl, showed her big feelings when QDOBA forgot to include guacamole in her order. Her mom posted the video on April 30, and it quickly went viral with over 5.5 million views. People all over the internet loved her honest and emotional reaction to missing the avocado dip she adores.
Astoria Refuses Salsa and Demands Her Guacamole Back
Astoria always orders the same meal: a chicken and cheese quesadilla, chips, guacamole, and a brownie for dessert. This time, when she saw her guacamole missing, she felt heartbroken. Her mom tried to give her salsa instead, but Astoria rejected it immediately. She said, “Nope, I don’t want that! I want the guacamole!” Her strong love for the sauce made the moment both sad and funny. Her mom captured the entire reaction on video, originally to share with family, but the clip spread quickly because of how relatable and genuine it was.
QDOBA Makes Astoria Their “Chief Guacamole Officer”
When QDOBA saw the video, they wanted to turn Astoria’s sad moment into something special. They crowned her “Chief Guacamole Officer” and gifted her a chef jacket and hat. Then, they taught her how to make their secret guacamole recipe. Astoria got a behind-the-scenes look at the restaurant and even helped work behind the counter for a day. She proudly called it her “first job.” She already loved visiting QDOBA nearly every week and especially enjoyed “Taco Tuesday.” Now, she had an official role at her favorite place.

QDOBA Sends Apology and Gift Card Instead of Guacamole
QDOBA’s chef sent an apology video to Astoria’s family, promising to make it up to her. They joked about sending her so much guacamole that her “brain’s gonna explode.” Since guacamole doesn’t travel well, the restaurant gave her a generous gift card to use on future visits. The gift card lets Astoria enjoy all the guacamole she wants whenever she goes back. This gesture made the little girl’s day and gave her fans a happy ending to the story.
Guacamole Always Comes Free With Any Order at QDOBA
QDOBA reminded everyone that their guacamole comes free with any entrée. This applies to all customers, not just Astoria. So anyone who loves the creamy avocado dip can enjoy it without extra cost. This policy helps make sure no one leaves their order without their favorite sauce. Astoria’s viral video shows how much guacamole means to fans everywhere. Now, she gets her favorite side every time she visits, and so can you.
