>this isn't Burger King. You can't have it your way

Their slogan has become so ubiquitous, that it's spawned its own anti-slogan/figure of speech, but why is "having it your way" so special? Every fast food restaurant accommodates to requests like no pickles or extra sauce.

burger king was the first back in the day to let you custom order fast food

Because us eliquent people in burgerland are so prestigious (in all tax brackets mind you) that we will scoff at even the slightest of errors just to be able to complain about it. Because as we know here, a complaint = free stuff/money. You step on my big toe? You owe me $50k for emotional damages to my toe's feelings.

We all agree if a chef makes you something, you enjoy it as-is, right? And if you don't like something the chef cooked with love, you're a faggot.

>slogan
A slogan is not a statement of fact or uniqueness. This particular slogan is engineered to conjure mental imagery of happy, smiling employees catering to your every desire and toiling to ensure you are satisfied so that you will spend your money with their company.

As you've so astutely discovered, this isn't true and doesn't grant you magical abilities to get whatever your spoiled fucking brat heart desires.

This concept is known as marketing, welcome to adulthood.

Well, if I don't like onions and the chef makes Onion a la Onion, it doesn't matter how much heart and soul he put in to it.

Basically this. Back in the day when BK started out, if you said "no onions" your answer was basically a polite form of "tough shit"
