order mix-up
Wrong items received
An order mix-up is a mistake where items are confused, swapped, or delivered incorrectly—typically in restaurants, shipping, or retail.
Someone receives the wrong food, package, or product: There was an order mix-up and I got someone else's burrito.
The term implies an innocent error rather than deliberate wrongdoing.
