    Perhaps it's just me but I never bite into takeaway food like that without checking it's ok first. I always lift the lid on a burger.

    No we all do it.....well almost everyone apart from the OP

    I thought this was a sequel to the Wrong Trousers.

    I'm a vegetarian, so from one to anther get over it. It's a petty mistake and a petty complaint.

    The rest of the family are not. But my daughter often buys from McDonalds approx once a fortnight. They now have a Vege de luxe burger which is approved by the Vegetarian Society so I always have that.


    Any ideas about what I can do if nobody seems interested. Thanks

    If you eat a McDonalds once a fortnight then you will know that the vege deluxe burger (good choice!) looks nothing like any of the other meat burgers!

    I am a little baffles how you didn't spot this!

    Nevertheless, human error happens, so perhaps send a message via twitter or facebook and hopefully you will get a voucher for a free one.

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    Having looked at a picture of the Veg De Lux it does look a bit like a Mc Chicken Sandwich.

    As an aside to this, and bearing in mind the horrific allergy stories we have been hearing lately, I think this has implications with regard to food labelling.

    People with food allergies shouldn't eat at McDonald's.

    Their menu contains this information:
    We produce our food in a kitchen (area) where allergens are handled and while we try to keep things separate we cannot guarantee any item is allergen free. While there are no nut or peanut ingredients in the products listed on this site we can’t guarantee that our food is completely nut or peanut free.

    As usual, you need to stick to what did happen.

    If you still have the receipt there are details of where to complete feed back on your visit.

    The address is https://www.mcdfoodforthoughts.com

    Not sure what you are hoping for, I left scathing feedback about my visit and the short version of their reply was "thanks for letting us know, return and you will see improvement"

    No money off, no compo and as I had actually been to the same one two days in a row and experienced exactly the same (cold burger which my cat wouldnt touch - was undertaking a survey about them!), do you think I would even return!?

    As a vegi I wouldnt eat there as I wouldnt trust the staff to even care about handling meat/vegi stuff and hygiene in between.

    I have been given the wrong burger in McDonald’s. I took it to the counter and changed it for the right one. I didn’t need to write to anyone.

    Why I should your story any different
