Fast Food Gone Horribly Wrong!

Surf Reporter Andrew recently ordered a Filet O Fish sandwich at a McDonald’s in Melbourne, Australia, and this is what was served to him.  It’s a catastrophic fast fast food failure of the highest order!

  1. O dear God I hope he called the authorities!

  2. What tha hell? Where did this come from?

  3. Some assembly required.

  4. I think that’s a TAR-TAR deflector.

  5. You think that’s bad, I once got one with the receipt still stuck in it. Guess that was the special sauce!

  6. Reminds me of the time I was sitting in a McDonald’s getting ready to take a bite out of a quarter pounder and (luckily) saw one of the employees’ contact lenses on it before chomping down.

  7. The new McFish Cheese Optional…”You decide… because we can’t”

  8. Maybe he asked for “cheese on the side”

  9. Why does the Filet-O-Fish only have a half-slice of cheese on it? I’m glad to know that everyone only gets a half-slice, though. I was beginning to think my local McDonalds had something against me.

  10. Because their Idiots brandy, and because the piece of fish isn’t big enough for the bun, so they just put half a slice of cheese on it instead of a full slice. Makes it so that you don’t get a more cheesy taste and so to say *drown out* the taste of the other stuff.

  11. Geez, a half slice of cheese!!! We only get 1/3 slice here. I swear it’s an inch and a half wide. And, when you ask for some mayo on that dry southern style chicken sandwich, they charge you an extra twenty-five cents. It’s already ridiculously expensive in my opinion.

  12. I think McDonalds in Australia has actually improved though, I’m sure i’ve ordered a Big Mac here in Brisbane before and it was assembled in reverse. You know, bun on the inside, contents smeared on the outside…

  13. Why would you even consider ordering from McDonalds when traveling outside the US?

    Embrace new and local foods!

  14. Mrs. L. Bangs:

    You mean like Cream of Kangaroo Gonad Soup?

  15. 911!!911!!

  16. The fish got to hot so it threw the cheese blanket off .

  17. Is there even any fish on it?

    LOL @ ‘cheese on the side’ =-)

  18. Could have been much worse, folks. He could have been at a Chinese restaurant, had an angry waiter, and been served as a ‘special sauce’…

    Cream of sum yung guy.

    Now there’s a full-body shiver, for sure.

    Todays quote: “Be nice to the restaurant staff unless you can personally oversee the preparation of your meal.”

    I just now made that up.

  19. Wow…that shows a singular lack of quality control, doesn’t it?

  20. Ha that’s funny were I live they dont even put cheese on the fish sandwiches.

  21. I once got one with nothiing in it and when i came back arguing to get my free burger they tried to kick me out. I stuck my foot somewhere it wasnt supposed to be and dipped back to my place

  22. Filet-O-Fish is a disaster that transcends all countries.
    In France too, they have frequent problems with this single cheese slice, and more generally about “burger piles”. You open the box and it has already miserably collapsed.
    I guess it is done to make us eat faster and faster – you know, swallowing the burger before the gravity wins.

  23. omg you think this “cheese incident” is bad HA! one time I got a fish filet and drove alllllll the way home only to discover that they FORGOT THE FISH!!! NO JOKE! I was sooooo Pissed. and another time I ordered a double cheese burger with extra ketchup drove about 5 miles down the road open the soggy wet paper that was already ripping bc of the wetness and discovered my double floating in a sea of ketchup it was literally unedible I was so mad that I turned around and drove all the way back (I was pregnant and hormonal lol) and pretty much threw it through the window I swore never again but alas I get a McNasty craving once in a while.

  24. I don’t think people are realizing that their isn’t any fish in that sandwich.

  25. Soooo lazy. There’s no fish on that sandwhich? Maybe the person making it just took a bite out of it… I ordered some wild rice from Dino’s Gyro’s that came with screw. Classy.

  26. hahahahaha! oh man i laughed so hard wow one time we opened up a box of chicken nuggets to find hair on them ewwwww though i do somtimes crave mc.donalds i always check before i leave

  27. Got some fries from McDonalds one time with some gum in the container. Already chewed…

  28. Where do they get the square fish?

  29. Where do they get the square fish?

  30. i still dont understand how mickey d’s is so popular, i dont even think they use real meat, like theyre hamburgers taste like formed oatmeal, but i still eat there every now and then, i just dont get it lol….also i bet that isnt even cheese, like a colored oil patty

  31. I was just going to say what girlgoyle did.

    Obviously this was a baited photo and the customer ordered cheese on the side.

  32. That’s funny, I got one sorta like this last week, except the cheese was half the size of this one, and it was oily and stuck to the box… like cheese gets when it’s left out too long or probably sitting at a heat lamp.

  33. Well it sure beats the heck out of the time I went to McDonalds to get my four year old a cheese burger for something he had done as a reward, at that time I had to scrape together enough change to buy the burger just to get it and see that they FORGOT the burger it was just bread and cheese!!!!

  34. do you guys seriously think that is gross well once i went to KFC and i was about to bite into the nuggets and i saw the cooks rotten fingernail on my nuggets luckily this boy yelled out what the heck is on her nuggets.

  35. I have on two separate occasions bitten into chili dogs and nearly broken a tooth, then fished around in my mouth and extracted a chunk of broken glass. This happened at two different company’s restaruants in two different citys over a year apart. The only explanation I can imagine is that chili sauce might come in a glass container and it got chipped getting the lid off.

  36. Here in São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo, Brazil…
    Is the same ridiculous thing!!
    Only a small-hall-slice of this cheese… and the sandwich goings really bad…with the same price ¬¬
    Many consumers have stopped eating at mcdonalds because of these and other lack of respect

  37. I was served raw hamburger meat on a bun once at Burger King. This one had many special needs employees who usually keep the dining room spotless, and one had started filling orders when it was busy to help out. Woops.

  38. If you think all of that is bad, I have a better one…. Try being pregnant and ordering a side of pickles with your double cheeseburger only to find out they’re only trying to rot your unborn baby’s brains by adding a couple of marijuana seeds in the mix!!! I was totally irate!!!

  39. I think if your pregnant and eating McDonald’s, your not overly focused on the nutritional well being of the unborn child to start with.

  40. I once ordered one, and it turned out to be breaded chicken (with tartar sauce and everything). Thankfully, that was the only time. I guess the employee was asleep on the job or something.

  41. I once ordered a Big Mac on my way home because I was starving, ate half of it, stopped at a red light, there also happened to be a street light on that corner…well…I look down only to discover that my burger was raw. Pulled over, got sick, and have never been back!!

  42. well i actually work at McDonalds and its kinda gross. and its kinda hard to make it look its best when your being rushed because customers are getting pissed because it takes to long and stuff. But really it difficult to work under that kind of pressure. we only have 45 seconds to get it made and to the custumer. im not going with the resturaunts.
    im actually writing a paper on fast food vs. health.

    honestly i think we should all stay away from fast food resuraunts because we are loosing quality time qwith family when eating out. at home you can help each other prepare it and all so there is more time spent doing so. and thats what is important right spending time with family. all this electronic stuff and everything that is conveinent to us is just making us lazy. sure its helpful, but life isnt always easy. so we all need to take a step back and think about all we have done.

  43. I heard that Texas is going to execute the Hamburgler via lethal injection next week. Apparently he is a repeat offender, and they are treating him as a special case. I think that we should all pull together and protest this heinous decision. Please consider sending an electronic message to the office of Rick Perry (the governor of Texas) stating your opposition to the Hamburgler’s execution using the following URL: http://governor.state.tx.us/contact/

    Together we can make this a better world!

  44. @ danielle. Sorry to falme you. What’s the paper for? Is your shift key broken? How about spell check? It does some grammer stuff too. Does everybody working there write like you do? Maybe that’s why fast food is like it is.Looks like you’ve already succumbed to the rewards of fast food. Hope you can do better writing a paper than commenting on a blog. Otherwise fast food might be your lot in life.

  45. I love how people overlook the message, Laserboy, and gripe about menial things. Please, tell me more of this mythical “grammer.” Also, tell me more of irony…and “falme?” Are you bleaching her (it’s norwegian for bleach)? Did you mean “flame?”
    Congratulations on learning where the shift key is.

  46. In McDonalds here in Ireland,my girlfriend,ordered a cheese burger,and when we got too the table and opened the wrapper,discovered a plain burger with a bite taken out of it,when complaining too the manager,he took some convincing that we did not take the bite out of it ourselves,and only reluctantly replaced the burger with a fresh one.this did happen some years ago.
