Things fast food places do that make you mad. Which one makes the most mistakes?

cheerfulgreek · #1 10-31-2008, 01:07 AM

I think it's unhealthy so I don't eat fast food anymore, but when I did.....I hated it when I would get home, and my hamburger would have mayonaise on it when I told them NO MAYONAISE. I hate mayonaise. I thought Wendy's and Taco Hell made the most mistakes. When I used to eat Taco Hell, I would specifically tell them "none of that white sauce" whatever it was. Anyway, they would still put it on my taco.

What about you? What made you mad, and which one do you think makes the most mistakes when you eat there?

McDonalds can never seem to get my order right....I went to their drive through for the first time in a couple of months, and the drive through radio cut out. I went to the payment window, no one there. Went to the pickup window, and the girl hiding at the payment window starts freaking out and yelling at the girl in the 2nd window, saying "She hasn't paid! She hasn't paid!"

Well, OF COURSE I haven't paid, you weren't there!

But yeah, this is just one example of the wonderfully idiotic kind of things that McDonalds has pulled.

The worst:

Once I was babysitting and got a Happy Meal for one of the kids. When I got home and looked in the bag, there was a toy and a juice box--nothing else.

Dead.

Fast food dining has never given me a problem. Maybe because I always go inside to eat. The times I've done the drive through thing, I didn't like it when they would tell me to pull off to the side to wait for something. If it was fries, I was good with that, because that meant they were hot and fresh.

In my area, it's the Burger King that always messes up the order. Now we know to check before we leave that window. They've given me kids' meals without chicken nuggets more than once. And, KFC never has original recipe available. It's always like a 10-15 minute wait for original recipe. You'd think they'd learn to MAKE MORE original recipe!

Speaking of Burger King (and PB I know this has happened to you too) but has anyone ever ordered breakfast from there and whatever you ordered tasted like something else? My God it happened to me and it was SO gross. I gagged. For example like eating a croissanwich, the cheese on it tasted like spoiled raw bacon or something. Sometimes the taste is on the straw when I drink orange juice from there too. What is that!? Does anyone know what I mean? It's hard to explain.

That always happens to me when Dunkin Donuts cuts my bagels. For them though, it is the garlic on the everything bagels that gets stuck on slicer. The first time it happened I was eating a plain badel with strawberry cream cheese. I spat it out and that was the end of breakfast.

I went to McDonald's once. Ordered a Big Mac. Everything was included on the sandwich, except......

the meat.

Went to burger king Wednesday morning. Ordered a #2 and a medium coffee. Got to work and I had two sausage biscuits, a small coffee and..... no hash browns. Burger King has the worst drive thru service.

AGDee · #12 10-31-2008, 10:00 AM

It really cracks me up when they point out the customer satisfaction survey info on the receipt as they hand you your screwed up order. Oh yes, I will DEFINITELY call that 800 number!

I have a policy of not eating fast food because...well...it's absolutely disgusting for the most part and makes me wonder how people can stand to eat such bland food.

But recently I was moving and realized that my husband and I were short on breakfast. People had been telling me that the McDonald's Southern Chicken Biscuit tastes just like Chick-Fil-A's chicken biscuit. I figured I'd get a couple for us. So, I went to McDonald's to get two chicken biscuits and two drinks. I guess I had it in my mind that they couldn't possibly screw up a four item order. Oh but they did. When I got back home, I realized they had only given us one biscuit and two drinks. I had to run my behind back up to the stupid place because I was starving. I'm done with McDonald's.

For the record, all y'all out there lied to me!!

That McDonald's nastiness tastes nothing like Chick-Fil-A's decent food in any way shape or form.

I don't eat a whole lot of fast food, because law school has done enough damage to my body. But, the Dunkin Donuts near my house is pretty special. There's always a guy who works mornings who stands in the middle and talks to the rest of his co-workers while they're trying to fill orders. I've never seen him do any work - he just starts talking randomly about stuff and waits for someone to chime in.

Ah, Dunkin's! There's a reason that the coffee is cheaper there than at Starbucks.

My standard order is a medium iced Latte Lite. Latte Lite is their name for it, not mine. It's latte with skim milk and Splenda.

One would think that using the Dunkin' established product name would ensure a standard result. Noooo! Since this is New England and "coffee light" means lots of cream, often a cup of very light beige is handed to me through my car window. That's definitely not skim milk.

If the closest Starbucks had a drive through, I'd be there all the time!
