Hello everyone,
As a practicing Vegetarian I wanted to let you know of an experience I had yesterday at McDonald's.
I am a Lacto Ovo Vegetarian, one who does not consume meat, fish or poultry, but will consume dairy and eggs. I am working up to becoming a Vegan.
I know McDonald's is not the best choice of a restaurant for a vegetarian, but please keep in mind that I do have a child that loves hamburgers and french fries.
As we was sitting down for lunch, I was having an Egg McMuffin with a coffee. I was opening the wrapper to put some ketchup on top, and to my surprise there was a small piece of ham on top, it was so small that if I did not take the bun off I would have never have noticed it.
I proceeded to take it up to the front counter and talk to the Manger. I told him that I am a vegetarian and ordered a McMuffin with no meat. He asked me if I ordered it correctly, I said yes. He asked if I was billed for it correctly, I said yes.
He asked if the receipt on top of the McMuffin stated that there was to be no meat, I said yes.
What happened next blew me away. He said "Thanks for letting me know." That's it!
No sorry. Can I get you another? Would you like a refund?
We just ended up leaving very upset. I take great pride in being a vegetarian and this is what happens, almost two years out the window.
The moral of this story always check you food when you are dining out, I sure will.
Thanks for reading, have a great Sunday.
Tom
