https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/10669263/muslim-mcdonalds-customer-given-sausage-mcmuffin/

A Muslm McDonald's customer has been left devastated after he was given a pork sausage McMuffin by staff. Sickened Fida Hussain, 49, from Small Heath, Birmingham, blasted the fast-food giants after they failed to give him the meat-free option he asked for. The dad-of-four has demanded an apology over the blunder and wants compensation from McDonald's after he was forced to spit the meat - which is against his religion to eat - out. He told The Mail: "I trusted them. I was watching Judge Judy and bit into the McMuffin and knew instantly when I tasted it that it was meat. "The taste was horrible, I knew straightaway and spat it out. "It's just completely wrong. It's a sensitive subject, it could happen to anyone, vegan or if a person is on a particular diet." Mr Hussain goes to the drive-thru at McDonald's in Small Heath every morning for a breakfast deal of an egg and cheese McMuffin, hash brown and a coffee. He says on December 17, he made his usual order at the Coventry Road restaurant and took the food home. The former self-employed courier claims he returned immediately to the restaurant and spoke to two managers. They advised him to complain online via details on the reverse of his receipt. He added: "The woman tried to tell me 'can we keep it quiet and deal with it in store' but obviously I was not happy at all.

"I am a practising Muslim with a nice, long beard and proud of it so they knew. "I've kept myself away from it [pork] all my life. McDonald's is a big name, it's a huge retailer. "They shouldn't make mistakes like this." He said he was given a replacement egg and cheese McMuffin and contacted the company's head office. But he claims they have since emailed him to say the matter is resolved as he accepted a replacement meal. McDonald's refute this and said it is still working to resolve the complaint. Although the chain has offered Mr Hussain meal vouchers he is not happy with the outcome. He said: "I would like an apology and financial compensation. I'm devastated. "It's put me off McDonald's and I'm mortified. It's diabolical for a professional retailer that's worldwide." A spokeswoman for McDonald's said: "We have a number of measures in place to avoid inaccurate orders and would like to apologise to the customer that we did not meet these standards on this occasion. "We recognise it is unacceptable to serve meat when a vegetarian product has been ordered. "As soon as it was brought to the attention of the restaurant, the customer was apologised to and offered a replacement order.

You should always check your order once it is given to you. As someone who always orders no pickles/onions. You can't trust them to always get it right.

Only think is if they mess up a big order like I went to white castle ordered a crave case without pickles. They had pickles and they threw the entire thing which was 30 burgers in the garbage. That felt like they wasted food but I got my correct order.

What a giant freaking baby.

They made a casual mistake, gave him a free meal, both managers he talked to encouraged him to file a complaint with corporate, and even after all that he wants financial compensation whatever that means and a different apology than the one he got because he is "devastated" over one bite that he spit it out?

Grow the fuck up.

he wants financial compensation for being too irresponsible to check his fucking food because he was watching tv. he unwrapped and bit without even once looking at the item. thinks his physical look matters beacuse the guys in the back making the order are telepathically linked to the guy or machine at the front who took the order. what an idiot.

"I am a practising Muslim with a nice, long beard and proud of it so they knew.

Since when are long beards exclusively a Muslim thing? I dont

"I would like an apology and financial compensation. I'm devastated. "It's put me off McDonald's and I'm mortified. It's diabolical for a professional retailer that's worldwide

Dude is way overreacting. Get a remake/refund, maybe a free meal next time but lmao at wanting a cash payout and McDonalds groveling on the floor at his feet.

Also as a devout Muslim you have a responbility to check the food you are eating no? You ordered from a place you know serves pork. They messed up and you messed up. Get a refund, stop going to McDonalds and call it a day. Throwing a tantrum like this over something as trivial as a sandwich is pathetic.

From an Islamic point of view Im pretty sure practicing muslims shouldnt be ordering food from places that serve non-halal food, even if the food they order itself is halal.

It depends. Does McDonald's offer a "beyond meat" or "impossible" breakfast sandwich? Basically a vegan meat substitute. I could understand some confusion there.

If the dude ordered an egg and cheese and literally didn't bother even glancing at it when unwrapping it and taking a bite, what the fuck lol.

I think some people genuinely want to take advantage of other's slip ups just to cause a huge scene. Like he probably saw it and decided to take a bite and spit it out (or say he did if nobody actually saw him do it) so he could get his fifteen minutes of fame and try to sue.

Edit: Also, that's some half-ass Muslim-ing as well. Is McDonald's even halal? And don't you think they're handling your food with the same gloves and cooking it with the same stove they're using for the sausage and bacon anyway? So he's probably been eating pork residue this entire time.

Jobs meant for people who are new to workforce life arent meant to be livable. These are people with no experience who need to learn about keeping a schedule, following orders, fulfilling tasks, and workplace responsibilities, who live with their parents because thats when you do THESE kinds of jobs.

Its not up to me to pay $8 for a $3 burger because John Doe couldnt stay out of jail.

Also, this. Mistakes happen often and it's irresponsible to trust your life to some underpaid fast food employee. If you have life threatening allergies you shouldn't be eating at places that serve what you're allergic to.

You don't. To my recollection you may have to pray for forgiveness, depending on the school/denomination, if you knowingly eat it. If you're starving to death though, it's permissible to eat pork to survive.

Aren't like well over 50% of people in these types of jobs not the ideal you are pushing? If a full time job exists, then a person should be able to live off it. How the fuck would people even be able to get better jobs and improve themselves if they don't even make enough to keep the lights on? It seems counterintuitive to make the people you don't like even bigger drains on society.

They fucked up, but it's a really small mistake, and McDonald's shouldn't have to compensate him more than average just because he's picky about food.

If he had an allergic reaction, it'd be another story.

Give him a refund and some free meals and call it a day.
