Millions of fast food products are eaten every single day, which proves that no matter how
many mishaps there are, people are still not going to give up their food habits. Just know
that you are certainly not alone when it happens to you. Here are 10 funny fast food fails
that will make you want to eat at home.
The Domino's Pizza That Came With a Present
There are many ways a pizza delivery could fail. You could end up with missing toppings,
burnt crust, the wrong toppings, toppings falling off from lackluster construction,
and of course, a cold pizza from the long delivery time. However, what you usually don't
expect to find are items that generally don't belong in the box. This customer was surprised
to see that their Domino's pizza contained something extra – the tray. Domino's is
no stranger to controversy. In the last decade, the company has been climbing back from various
incidents of bad publicity. For example, in 2009, two employees were caught posting a
video prank where they tampered with customers' food orders by putting mucus on sandwiches
and shoving cheese up their nose. Sounds gross, right? Well, the world agreed and the company's
success began to dwindle. However, since 2010, the company has been undergoing what the CEO
calls a "pizza turnaround" to improve their food and their image. Maybe providing this
lovely pizza tray was a gesture to the company's loyal customer? According to the comments
on the original post of this pizza fail, these trays can actually be a game changer for homemade
pizza. So, this seems to us like it's a big bonus for this customer. Those pizza trays
can't be cheap.
This Wendy's is Serving up a Side of Salmonella Poisoning
Undercooked chicken is no joke. This particular Wendy's customer was going about their day,
getting ready to enjoy a chicken sandwich, when they got this unfortunate surprise. Thankfully,
they noticed before they ate the entire sandwich. Imagine the heart attack you'd have if you
bit into your lunch and it was raw. Unfortunately, it seems as though it's difficult to tell
that the chicken is raw from the outside since the breading is cooked. Someone is clearly
slacking on their temperature monitoring. This could cause a serious problem if this
person hadn't noticed or if they swallowed this bite. Raw chicken is one of the top trigger
foods for salmonella poisoning. And if you know anything about salmonella poisoning,
you know it's not pretty. According to the CDC, salmonella poisoning can leave you out
of commission for up to a week with extreme flu-like symptoms that will make you unable
to leave the washroom and potentially need to visit the hospital. Not something you'd
like to pay for when you purchase food from your local drive-thru. It's one thing to
refer to your food as fresh and never frozen. It's another to have your food be so fresh
that it's not even cooked.
An Extra Crunchy McDonald's Burger
So, we're not even really sure what happened here. Either this customer received an extra
crunchy surprise on their burger, or they decided to try the McDonald's Nacho burger
and the result was this monstrosity. Probably the second option. Now, in some countries,
McDonald's released a promo with burgers that replicated beloved American tastes for people
elsewhere in the world. On this menu was a nacho burger that promised a Tex-Mex style
taste with the crunchy addition of nacho chips. This particular user is somewhere in Europe,
so they got to take advantage of this promo. However, this particular burger seems to be
severely lacking in, well, everything. It can't possibly be acceptable for a burger
that brags about its nacho crunch to only have one broken nacho chip inside. Also, where
are the rest of the toppings?
Subway Sandwich with a side of Knife
So a customer pulls up to a Subway, goes in, orders their foot long sub sandwich, all is
normal here. But when the sandwich is opened, a discovery is made: A huge knife, sharp as
can be, just wrapped up with the sandwich. Subway meticulously wraps up their sandwiches
with multiple layers of parchment paper. The knife was lodged between the regular parchment
paper and the Subway branded paper. Thankfully that was the case, as we don't even want to
imagine a possible outcome if it were somehow lodged inside the sandwich itself. Thankfully
though, the huge blade and green handle of the knife were found outside of the sandwich,
and clearly the worker just forgot it was under his prep area and ended up wrapping
it along with the sub by accident. Just seeing the large knife resting on top of the sub
sandwich is kind of comical but wow we're glad we can laugh this on off, could have
been much worse. So make sure next time you're at Subway, or any sandwich shop for that matter,
check that they didn't wrap any kitchen accessories in there with your sandwich!
Taco Bell Running on Empty
Who doesn't love a delicious taco or burrito packed to the gills with your favorite meats
and toppings?! Well we can also tell you what everyone doesn't love. Ordering up some tacos,
leaving the restaurant with your take-out bag ready to devour them one by one. Only
to get home and realize, your tacos are empty... There's multiple instances of this happening
at Taco Bell unfortunately. Some even having just a bit of meat, which is almost worse.
As you're sitting there thinking, was this a mistake or are they actually selling this
an actual taco? This customer believed it was an actual taco they were trying to sell
him and he claimed it to be "the saddest taco in the world". We really can't disagree with
that claim, I mean just look at it... Some of the other Taco Bell tacos that are worthy
of this list are just straight up empty, like this one. Just an empty taco shell, with a
few measly strains of shredded cheese. I mean come on, how does something this pathetic
and clearly empty even leave the prep area in the back of the Taco Bell, let alone make
it into the hands of a customers... But here we are, these hungry Taco Bell customers,
getting their food, and instead of having pictures of a delicious fast food feast to
share on social media, they are sharing these pictures of the saddest, most empty, and of
course hilarious taco fails.
Did Someone Say Extra Extra Mayo at Subway?
Now, mayonnaise is one of the most popular and best-selling condiments in the United
States. It's a key ingredient in a lot of foods, like deviled eggs, and goes great on
sandwiches. Some people really love it, while some despise it. But even the biggest mayo
lovers would argue this is way too much mayonnaise. Imagine opening up this Subway sandwich. If
it can be called a sandwich. It’s more like a mayo stew. How does this even happen? Wouldn't
the customer have seen this being made in front of them? There's a chance they may have
had it done through a take-out service or someone picked it up for them and wasn't paying
attention. However, that doesn't erase the fact that this happened at all. This is probably
one of the most unappealing fast food fails we've ever seen. Who in their right mind would
eat this pile of sticky, messy cholesterol? If you do a little digging about the proper amount
of mayo on a sandwich, you will find that there is a significant amount of divide on
the Internet. Some people are in agreement that most sandwich shops are way too generous
with the mayo, while other people believe that there is no such thing as too much of
it (clearly they haven't seen this photo). This old Reddit thread is a great example.
Let's just call this the Great Mayo Debate.
McDonald's Takes the Order a Little Too Literally
When you order a burger, the toppings may change depending on someone's preference,
but the constant is always the burger patty. Right? That's what this person thought, anyway.
Turns out, when you want a cheeseburger with just ketchup and cheese, you still have to
remind them that you want the patty. This particular McDonald's customer learned the
hard way when they opened up their burger to find it was just a bun with cheese and
a tiny, tiny squirt of ketchup. Now, some of the more skeptical people out there may
argue that this person just took the patty off to get social media attention. These days
it's hard to trust who is telling the truth and who is just trying to get likes or attention.
However, if we truly take a look here, you can see that there is no sign a patty was
ever on this burger. Let's put our detective caps on for a minute. The cheese is not very
melted like it would be under a hot patty, what little ketchup is there is not spread
out, and there are no little marks to indicate meat was ever present in this scenario. So,
we'd like to conclude by saying that this is truly seems to be a case of neglect by
the McDonald's employee.
Don’t Forget The Cheese at McDonald's
Somehow half of this piece of cheese didn't even make it onto the sandwich. This customer
was really looking forward to their lunch, but clearly whoever prepared it wasn't paying
attention to the construction. The cheese is supposed to be inside of the buns with
the rest of the ingredients. Now it looks like it's melted onto the box, which means
that piece of cheese is gone forever and this poor customer will have to settle for a lack
of cheese flavor. Even if they tried to peel it off and put it back on the sandwich, they
would barely be able to get it all back on. The worst part is that now we're wondering
how long this particular person had to wait in the drive-thru to get this disappointing
product. Everyone makes mistakes. That's part of living life as a human being. Especially
for fast food workers who likely have to prepare thousands of burgers and sandwiches over and
over every single shift. We may have self-service machines at McDonald's locations now, but
ultimately the food items are still being prepared by living, breathing human beings.
But this person had to have been not paying attention at all to not realize they weren't
actually placing the cheese anywhere in the sandwich. Didn't they feel their fingers making
contact with literal cardboard? Maybe they were distracted. Who knows? All we know is
that this would be pretty disappointing if it happened to us.
An Inside Out Breakfast Sandwich from Dunkin'
We can't always get what we want. But it's really not too much to ask that the fast food
you're ordering comes reasonably prepared. This person expected their Dunkin' Donuts
breakfast sandwich to have the ingredients somehow arranged on the inside. You know,
like a regular breakfast sandwich should be organized. Now the cheese is melted onto the
wrapper, the egg is literally everywhere, and the English muffin doesn't look so hot.
Try putting that back together when you've basically lost your cheese to the wrapper.
This person must have noticed this mistake when they were wrapping it up, seeing as these
ingredients are clearly not in the shape of a regular sandwich. Dunkin’ has been able
to position itself as the ultimate and most obvious choice for an on-the-go breakfast.
The franchise has been built on the idea of coffee and donuts, but as people have begun
to expand their breakfast options, the chain has introduced a variety of new creations
for people to choose from first thing in the morning. That's how they ended up with a list
of plenty of different breakfast sandwiches to choose from, including the All You Can
Meat sandwich, which comes with bacon, ham, and sausage on a croissant. As this customer
found out, it's probably just best to stick to the muffins or donuts since you can see
them and you know they're hard to mess up going from shelf to bag.
This Burger King Employee Forgot How to Build a Burger
Sometimes you just forget things. Everyone does it. We forget to bring things with us
or to pack certain things. In a world where everyone is always multitasking and rushing
around, that's just a fact of life. But sometimes forgetting things can impact others around
you, like when you're working at a fast food restaurant and preparing orders for customers
who are looking forward to a delicious, greasy burger. This particular customer noticed that
the employee that made their burger at Burger King didn't quite remember that the buns are
supposed to be on the bottom and the top. So, what they received instead was this creation. We're
not really sure what the proper process for building burgers is at Burger King, but we
think that it doesn't quite end up like this. In fact, this employee probably should have
noticed that the products they were stacking together weren't really going on very well.
It looks like they would have had to balance those toppings and that patty on top of the
sloped bun, so why did it get this far? Hey, at least all of the ingredients did make it
on the burger, right? That's more than we can say for some of the other incidents on
this list.
