Question for you (completely off topic from your conversation with the other person). How believable is this story without broodje hagelslag being served? I need to know how accurate my Dutch lessons are.
LOL, hagelslag is just something to put on your bread like peanut butter or cheese. Some like it, some don’t, but I wouldn’t offer a coworker breakfast if they were to pick me up for work.
On-topic; this story is the kind of thing you hear about, but never experience. It’s something that could almost happen, but you’d have to be a cheap skate by Dutch standards to actually do this.

Ik heb geen hagelslag in huis. Wel koffie. Ik zou een collega wel koffie aanbieden, maar geen Tikkie sturen.
Dankjewel, ook geen koekjes?
Sowieso geen stroopwafel.
Ik hoor stroopwafels?!
Als ik ze heb bied ik ze wel aan, maar koekjes overleven in ons huis nooit heel lang
Without broodje hagelslag, this story is completely unbelievable. Broodje hagelslag is the cornerstone of Dutch culture.
