I ORDERED PLAIN!!!

There is a certain risk I take when I go through the drive-thru of a fast-food place. Wherever I go, I always order my sandwiches plain. I can't stand the taste of mustard, ketchup, pickles, etc, on my sandwich. I always make sure to enunciate clearly so as not to mix up my order. "I'd like 2 McDoubles, plain with cheese only." The little "with cheese only" at the end of the order ensures that my burgers will come out plain. Oh, how naive I am. The majority of the time they come out exactly as I dictated. But, inevitably, I will be sitting at my kitchen table, unwrapping my burgers only to smell the scent of mustard wafting through the air. I tell you, no other experience is more infuriating than discovering that your delicious meal has been smothered in red and yellow mucus.

  1. Wow, Jimmy. This post is ridiculously true. If they don't add extra stuff, then they completely forget to put something in your bag. Taco Bell is big on forgetting to put my order of Nachos and Cheese in the bag. I've had to go back a countless number of times. As you said, it causes nothing but frustration.

  2. Maybe you have yet to realize that the people working at McDonald's really don't give to craps if you want your sandwich plain. In fact i hear that they do weird things to your food when you special order. So maybe that red and yellow mucus isn't ketchup.
    p.s.
    I once witnessed you order this exact way. haha
