Top 10 Fast Food Items You Should NEVER ORDER According to Reddit!
Feb 27, 2020While some people say that the Internet basically brings out the worst in people, there are some parts of old cyberspace that are actually beneficial to society. Here's an example of that: Reddit's /r/AskReddit section had a question for the tens of thousands of Reddit users who work in

the next time you hit the drive-thru. Chili at Wendy's One of the things that separates Wendy's from itsfast
-footed competition is its chili, so if you're one of the many who stop by a Wendy's drive-thru late at night for a delicious meal of cowboy, you might want to skip ahead a bit.Several Wendy's workers told people the chili is made from the same meat the restaurant uses for its burgers. The problem is that they usually use the burger that's too old for those square sammiches to make the chili, which means you're eating old, dry, and sometimes expired meat when you order it. Beyond that, they also use the excess burger left on the grill in the chili, which is disgusting. Do you want the trifecta? Apparently, if the chili they've made doesn't sell
fast
enough and ends up too cold to sell (despite being in the warmer), the employees add hot water to the expired meat smorgasbord to really crank up this first. . favorite fastfood
item.Steak and Beans at Taco Bell While the chili entry was confirmed by several Wendy's employees, some of these are based on the individual claims of individual employees. That's just a disclaimer before you completely dismiss a favorite restaurant menu item. Redditor Beefcake21 said of the steak and beans at Taco Bell: "The beans start to look like cat food, and the instructions are, 'Add water and stir until you can't see white anymore.' Beefcake21 also said the steak was just the worst in dish service. If it sat too long it would turn to hair gel." Only the most unpleasant.
Disclaimer or not, we'll definitely think twice the next time we're in the mood for "Mexican" food. Dunkin' Donuts Sandwiches Dunkin' Donuts is very popular, especially on the East Coast of the United States, and a treasured part of every '80s cop movie. Beyond coffee and donuts, Dunkin' Donuts has tried to expand its offering to breakfast sandwiches and regular sandwiches as well. While that makes sense since all fast food places are trying to expand their offerings in both general items and healthy items in particular, an employee named "mjforever33" cautions against buying relatively new sandwiches. Mjforever33 says: "The donuts are ok.
But don't order the sandwiches. Both the tuna and chicken are taken out of a little container. I don't even know what's inside. The eggs come 'precooked' and it looks gross. Donuts = Good. Sandwiches = You're crazy, stoned, or hammered." He says what he wants about his assessment of the quality level of the ingredients in the sandwiches, he is not wrong about the level of sobriety of the customers. Chipotle Quesorito One thing every customer at any restaurant fears is somehow upsetting the waiter or kitchen staff preparing and bringing out their food. Because there is always the possibility that that person will spit or mess with her request.
While Reddit user and Chipotle employee "ThedudeisCJ" didn't necessarily say that the people at Chipotle are spitting on food, he does lay out all the ingredients to do just that. He cautions against people ordering the Quesorito, an item that requires a lot of time and care to make, especially during busy restaurant hours. While it's okay to order when it's slow, if you order when you're in a rush, ThedudeisCJ says the employees will hate you. The people behind you in line will hate you. Everyone will hate you." That will increase the chances that something bad will end up in your food, especially considering Chipotle's unhygienic reputation.
Anything fried...or nothing from Olive Garden Now, sure, adding Olive Garden to a La list of fast food restaurants is a bit of a stretch as it's more of a chain sit down place but this entry is so gross it had to be included Olive Garden prides itself on offering relatively upmarket food, at least from the point of view of view of chain restaurants, implying a quality that apparently simply isn't there. Just ask Reddit user 'UppersArentNecessary.' He works at Olive Garden and had this to say about fried food: "I don't know how often you add oil to fry." changed, but judging by the color...
I know it smells stale." Beyond that though, he expanded on his criticism of food in general, saying: "I don't know what dishes this comes with, but the potato and pepper mix, which is fried, will often have bits of pepper that h ave began to rot. Not mold rotten, but definitely rotten and discolored." So maybe next time make your own spaghetti at home. Guys, it's very easy. McNuggets That Aren't Made Fresh Who doesn't love McDonald's McNuggets? You know, besides Gordon Ramsay. Sure, they're made from the "pink slime" chicken that went viral a few years ago and end up on a production line that looks like a factory that's making car parts, and they've also recently been linked to cancer thanks to all the preservatives in it. they use to ensure they stay "fresh" as long as possible, but...
They are so delicious! Well, add one more reason not to order what is apparently going to end up killing us all. , as Reddit user and McDonald's employee "Ritch88" said that you should always specify fresh. "If you order," he said, "especially chicken nuggets, just ask for them fresh." Otherwise they have just been sitting in their container in the heat. They have a timer, but 9/10 times when that timer goes off, people just reset it instead of making a new one. This could go on until all the nuggets are sold." McDonald's McCafe Machine McDonald's used to get a TON of business from people simply ordering coffee, and once their share of the breakfast coffee market began to decline thanks to the addition From drive-thrus to places like Starbucks or Caribou (not to mention all the modern coffee shops that have sprung up) and the home coffee machine revolution spearheaded by companies like Keurig, McDonald's decided to improve the quality of its coffee by launching the McCafe side of his business.
McCafe was the "high end" version of regular McDonald's coffee, which makes the information provided by McDonald's employee and Redditor "Envirometh" even more ironic. Basically, just don't order the "fancy" coffee , such as: "All McCafé drinks go through a terribly dirty machine; we're talking 5+ inches of uncleaned liquid bulls, which make up their internals, and the shakes have glass cleaner on them." McYuck. Milk shakes at Jack in the Box (especially if you have a fruit allergy) Fruit Allergies they are not a joke as something as small as a grape can literally kill some people, because of that having a severe food allergy can be a nightmare for people as they can
never
really be sure what they are going to eat it won't kill them.While many people like to make fun of those allergies, especially peanut allergies (since there's been a lot of bad PR along those lines, like parents getting reprimanded for making a peanut butter sandwich and jam for his kids' lunch), there's a pretty logical reason behind that fear and those notes as the Reddit user "RingoTheCraftySquid" post points out. Ringo works or worked for Jack in the Bo x and mentioned how the same machine makes shakes and smoothies, which means your shakes can have leftover f fruit in it. Ringo says it's not a very clean machine either, per company policy: "We don't clean the blender very well, and it's used for smoothies and shakes.
We're TOLD to do it halfway." In the training video ." Ballpark Hot Dogs Attention sports fans, the questions/theories/fear you've always had about those $12 hot dogs were correct! Even though the markup of the hotdogs should allow concession stand operators to buy new hotdogs every day, apparently they're too greedy or lazy to do so and end up holding already cooked hotdogs for days and days and days Stadium worker and Redditor "FreakyCheeseMan" he says this from his experience at the ballpark; "it came right out of the package, and might even have been edible after we finished grilling them, and then they went into the water.
Any hot dogs left over at the end of the day went back in the fridge and out again the next day. The other cook and I went to work throwing away the water and old sausage after two full days, but management didn't want to let us." Hot dog... Rather lukewarm-pre-and-re-cooked- food-poisoning-waiting-to-happen-dog Seafood Sandwiches at Subway Subway is having a lot of problems right now. Their spokesman of a decade not only ended up being a pedophile freak, but they're also losing customers back and forth now that they've moved away from their five dollar program (which wasn't good for profits anyway) Subway is the largest fast food company in the United States, with almost 2,000 more locations than the company that ranks second place, McDonald's, and they're closing restaurants left and right.That could be a good thing, at least for marine life, for when they're not substituting imitation meat for seafood and mixing in too much mayonnaise, they're also potentially using ma cliffs containing dolphin and/or sea turtle meat.
According to a Subway employee; "I worked at Subway 2010-12. The only thing I have to say is that the tuna and seafood packages used to have a label saying no dolphins or turtles in the meat, then in 2012, that label suddenly disappeared." That could mean they're just using imitation meat now and therefore don't need the label, but think about it. That's still pretty bad. When the options are to lie to you or kill dolphins and feed them to you, you know a company has problems. Hope we didn't gross you out too much.
