Inflation isn’t the only thing that’s getting high these days. Customers at a Wisconsin-based pizzeria experienced a high of their own after they unknowingly ate pizza that was accidentally contaminated with THC.

According to Fortune, the bizarre incident took place at Famous Yeti’s Pizza in Stoughton, Wisconsin, and THC-laced pizza was served from Tuesday, October 22 and Thursday, October 24.

In a Facebook post shared on October 24, Famous Yeti’s Pizza confirmed that with help from Stoughton Police and local health officials, they discovered that their dough had been contaminated with Delta9 oil. The discovery came after the restaurant received reports from staff, Yeti’s owner, and employees of unexplained physical reactions. In total, dozens of customers experienced symptoms due to the contamination.

“Today it was confirmed that pizza had been sold with dough mistakenly prepared with Delta9 contaminated oil. The oil accidentally used in the product originated from a shared storage space in the on-site cooperative commercial kitchen,” a portion of the Facebook post read.

The restaurant went on to inform customers that all of the affected products have been destroyed and they’re working to prevent such an occurrence from happening again.

In the comments section of the Facebook message, customers showed their support and applauded Famous Yeti’s Pizza for their transparency. And there were of course a few users who couldn’t help but poke fun of the mix-up.

“Is it too late to get me one of those pizzas?!?!?” one person wrote.

“I’ll take some pizza if there is any left lol,” another person chimed in.
