Guys, it happened AGAIN. I ordered a McDouble and they gave me a Double Cheeseburger. Totally different McD's too.

How often do you have luck like this with your fast food orders? Ever get free food? Like someone else's order that was a lot bigger than yours?

i ordered a big mac and they gave almost no mac sauce and the patties were fucking cheap dollar menu ones. it felt like i was biting into 80% bread. i dont remember big macs being this fucking carby and swear they were actually a bit smaller with more patty meat in the past.

looking at the advertisement vs 'actual' big macs on google images and mine was way worse. fuck McKikes.

A 2nd slice of cheese for the DBC. Only one slice for the McDb

That reminds me of an experiment that I often do when I visit McDonald's during non-breakfast hours. I always order at the electronic kiosk, so I would input my usual order, plus a plain Hamburger. Hardly anyone orders Hamburgers at McDonald's. I order it because I'm interested in seeing what I actually get.

I usually end up getting McDoubles or Cheeseburgers. I've only ever gotten an actual Hamburger by name only twice. It's a weird experiment in that the "worst" case scenario is when I actually get what I ordered. The best case scenario is I get something slightly better than what I ordered.

They're always the ones you get on hamburgers. A "Big mac" only has like 90g meat, the size comes from the middle bun and stuffing it with lettuce

One time, I ordered a limited promo item at Subway. I forgot what it was called, but it was basically their Meatball Marinara sub, plus pepperoni.

When I got to the end, I was charged for the Meatball Marinara instead of the promo sub. The price difference had to have been at least $2.

I had an UberEats driver pull up and put a huge bag of food on my front porch then start to get back in his car. I happened to be in the side yard and noticed this, so I went over and let him know that I hadn't ordered anything. He asked what my address was, so I told him, and he just wordlessly held out his phone which had a completely different address listed. I legit had to open up Google maps and show him that the address listed in his UberEats app was like 3 blocks away on a completely different street, and then I had to give him directions on how to get to that address. I now understand why I see so many horror stories regarding these delivery services

>I don't know how they managed to find flavorless onions but they did.
For maximum flavor, onions should be chopped & used ASAP. Pre-chopped onions tend to lose their flavor over time. A fast food restaurant isn't gonna care about that, especially if it's right next to a bar.

As a delivery driver there are several times where the GPS took me to the wrong place, and I usually catch this and then have to enter in the name of the business/complex into the GPS in order to get the correct location. 90% of time, the GPS does not take you directly in front of the house. The house is sometimes 12 houses down or 9 houses backwards. Several times I have to get off and just walk with the food to find the house, and this is guaranteed at night. It gets worse when people don't have address numbers visibly posted, including their neighbors. Once I was so frustrated with one neighborhood and their lack of visible numbers, that I went inside a neighbor's mailbox, glanced at their mail to see their address numbers in order to verify the correct house was next door. In the future I imagine all of these micro errors will be corrected in GPS tech and functionality.

For fuck sakes. Why are they both even on the menu together? Also, why even bother to go to McDonald's for anything other than an emergency breakfast item before work? There are plenty of restaurants that sell burgers even in rural areas. Even competing chains make them better.

Jimmy John's delivered to my house a couple of months ago, the problem was they just set it on my front porch and I was on a conference call so I had no idea it was out there for a couple of hours until I went to walk the dog.
I called the lady it was supposed to go to but by then she had already made them redo the order so I "threw it away"
It was food for like three people too.

I once went to Popeyes's and ordered my usual: one spicy Chicken Sandwich and a two-piece consisting of one drumstick and one thigh. Normally, I would go to Taco Bell and get a Diet Pepsi since it tastes better/sweeter than Diet Coke and they don't sell Coke Zero at most fast food joints.

After I got my drink from Taco Bell, I looked into my chicken box and noticed I had two drumsticks and two thighs. I groaned about it because I'm still on a diet and it went over my daily limit of 1600 calories a day. Still ate it any ways.

I've lost 35 lbs since starting my diet a little over two months ago. My target weight is 165lbs, so I have less than 20lbs to go.

I got a free DBC once.
I used to go to a local McDonald’s all the time but one day I had to take a shit so I went into the bathroom and shit but then there wasn’t toilet paper so I had to call the restaurant from inside the bathroom stall and ask if they can bring me toilet paper but the guy thought it was a prank call and just laughed at me and hung up so I called back and asked if I could talk to the manager and she said she’d send someone to check so an employee came in the bathroom and started coughing and said “damn y’all done fucked it up in here! I got yo toilet paper!” and slid it under the door so I wiped my ass and came out but then the manager approached me and said she was sorry and asked if I wanted a free burger and I asked if I could have it to go but she said no so I sat there and ate my free double cheeseburger.

I always read run on sentences like this in a panicked anxious inner voice within my head. it helps me envision how absolutely retarded you are.
nice story though, I used to prank call some the double walmart in texas and ask for the workers to bring a roll of toilet paper into the men's room. I would use a really fucked up deep voice and act very desperate and embarrassed, almost on the verge of tears. The workers are usually super nice and honestly embarrassed a little themselves so they rush right over (i assume). Then I would wait a few minutes and call back 2x as desperate, with some anger in my voice as if I were still waiting for the toilet paper. This is where the employees tell you that they brought the tp to the men's room. Now I crank up the suffering and agony to the max that I can possibly go and fumble through the realization that I ran into the women's room to take this massive shit, and the employees will need to bring another roll into the women's room. Then I hang up and go on with my day.
This prank is a HIT at parties. I've got a few other scenarios I run for laughs. Calling big department stores works the best.

Food prices in Saskatchewan are fucked right now.
At a little eatery, a family run place, a burger, fries and milkshake was $24. That's $18 USD.
There's no fast food around where I live, so I don't know what comparisons are (and I've never been to, say, McDonalds) but its ridiculous.
Luckily I just buy meat by the pound from a local cattle rancher and freeze it to make whatever I want, including some excellent burgers, but lately he's been worried due to the rising costs of feed and how harsh the government is taxing him.
They're taking away our cows. Saskatchewan, the breadbasket of Canada, is losing its wheat and its cows.

I bet the real reason for this is that dumbasses would go to the kiosk and order a "hamburger" and them come back and complain that it didn't have cheese because they don't realize that "hamburger" and "cheeseburger" are two distinct items.
