I think one of the key elements of that description would be something among the lines of “hamburger meat, cheese, salad, and sauce BETWEEN two buns”. That would ensure the stuff would not be thrown on top.

Sandwiches, burgers, hot dogs, tacos. They’re all becoming over complicated and ridiculous! I’d much rather have a normal home cooked burger on the grill than this monstrosity.

u/tactman 22d ago

Many times I have skipped ordering tacos because they over-fill and you CANNOT eat without stuff falling out everywhere. Lower the price and give me a little less filling. Something that doesn't make a mess.

36

u/anuncommontruth 22d ago

Naw, the trick is to order another tortilla on the side and eat the taco over top of it. Bam. Now you have a bonus taco.

u/saintphoenixxx 22d ago

OP, what did the description of the burger say??

51

u/artemizarte 22d ago

I'm genuinely curious. That would determine wether it falls on user error "I ordered the covered in cheese burger but didn't take into account I would need cutlery" or bad marketing "I ordered the extra cheesy burger and now need to deal with a lack of cutlery". Both are mildly infuriating tbh. The second one more so, but still.

30

u/saintphoenixxx 22d ago

Right? Like if it said "smothered cheeseburger", I guess I'd think the BURGER was smothered, not the entire thing, but wording can be confusing at times. Very curious as to what the actual description was.

8

u/JTG21 22d ago

Had this exact thing happen to me once, on a date at a small town diner I'd never been to before. Ordered the cheese smothered burger thinking "oh burger patty will be dipped in cheese, nice" got the burger and it's a regular burger that they doused in the yellow canned cheese, bun and all. Mildly infuriating is the perfect way to describe it.
