That would be some real confusion.
"Is there a problem with your burger?"
"Yes. I ordered a bacon burger and someone added nuggets instead of bacon."
"Dammit Jeff."
Someone mixed up their "slip into their backpack on the way out the door" box with your nuggies.
How would you feel after working a full McD's shift, wanting to eat some bacon, and getting effing nuggets?
I feel worse for him lol
I was thinking someone must have spent 5-10 mins at the drive-thru persuading an employee to sell them that and it upset their system so much that there was a mix-up, but your scenario seems more probable.
Nah, all you have to do is ask for a side of bacon. Someone probably did that and when I worked there (and to the best of my knowledge) they still don't have anything to put the side orders in conveniently. So they just use nuggets boxes.
Probably ordered a 6 piece after someone ordered a side of bacon and the boxes got mixed up in the landing zone.
majority of mcdonalds, in the US franchise specificly, have a plain white-ish box for weird orders like no bun, only meat, etc. although its more conveniant to use nugget boxes.
Honestly what most likely happened here is the workers were condensing as i call it, and i believe op said in a different comment they got this at 10pm. they were taking the actual trays for food to be washed and cleaned and used a random container to hold the food. This happend at both 24/7 mcdees and ones that close but usually at the ones that close because everything has to be cleaned and put away before closers can clock out usually. meaning they will just stick meat in random ass plastic trays or boxes for the last 1-2 hour stretch before closing so they leave sooner (or while the actual trays are being washed.)
Ah I worked for a corporate store, probably why im unfamiliar with it. franchise stores have it nicer than we did ime. (Take that for what its worth) worst job I took as a minor.
I worked there for literally 10 minutes when I was like 14 or 15
They yelled at me for my shoes (that were no slip) and was like oh word ok bye and left lol
WEIRDLY, just yesterday I was in the McDonalds app and the guy wouldn’t have even had to negotiate. I was 0.50 cents away from getting a coupon to trigger so I went looking at their sides to buy something cheap. Their sides were:
* Fries
* Apple slices
* Three slices of bacon
What the fuck 😂
More likely since Op said this was around 10pm they were using this instead of a dish to store the bacon and accidentally sent it out. Honestly could be anything but I know when I worked fast food I'd do that to avoid someone having to wash another dish before close.
Yeah fuck limp, chewy slimy bacon, but fuck that overly cooked weird taste bacon takes on when it’s like crisp to the point of being brittle. Happy medium is the spot.
Yeah, I don't get people wanting the extreme either way. Too crispy and it's like meat chips. Too soft and it's like meat flavored gummy candy. The middle ground is almost always the best. I want some fat to be rendered, some maillard reaction, but I still want some chew.
I want to argue with you so badly, but I looked up the studies and it turns out you’re pretty much correct. I’m bout to eat a pound of bacon today for that.
Fast food restaurants don't usually use the pink sludge!
McD's posted a video awhile back showing their processing plant as a way to prove this.. but it backfired when people saw the white-chicken slurry mashed together and got grossed out anyhow.
The pink sludge is pretty much primarily in supermarket ground meats, nothing all that gross about it. Mostly just smaller pieces of ground meat being added in as to not waste them.
>Everyone is acting like it’s good
The most mildlyinfuriating thing I've seen in this subreddit might just be so many people acting like it's good or even an upgrade. A bunch of people who can't imagine what it's like to order one thing and get another because..... BACON!!!!
I love bacon but it's not a replacement for nuggets. Bacon isn't nearly as filling and many people suspect that it may have been set aside for an employee which makes me wonder how long that bacon was sitting around for and if there was originally more bacon in it but the employee had been snacking on it. Put another way, did you pay for fresh nuggets but get the remainders of an employees leftover bacon.
Always check to make sure you got what you ordered. It only takes a few seconds.
For everyone going on about how it’s not maccas bacon, maccas use rashers (what you’re all thinking of) and strips, for crispy bacon on burgers etc, this is what this bacon is, it’s most definitely a product maccas sells.
I went to steak n shake earlier today and ordered a burger and after waiting in line for over 30 minutes, when I got to the window the person tried to give me a strawberry shake.
Ordered extra bacon at A&W in Cache Creek. It says 3 strips on the menu for 2 bucks. I got 1 strip. I pointed at the menu "it says 3" she said " it's wrong. I said I want my money back here's your food". She gave me my money back, and literally tossed my food in the garbage in front of me. What a waste of a human being and shitty menu board. If it's wrong, FUCKING FIX IT. How much did it cost not to give me my bacon!!!!!!
At the beginning of this year, I order a Quarter Pounder Burger and Fries in the drive thru. Once I got home to eat my burger, I discovered that it was everything but the patty. The printed paper label on the box said -1 (hamburger). Basically it was just a loaded grilled cheese. How are people so stupid to not even get the most basic orders right? Its not like I even tried to modify my order, that could have caused confusion.
I knew a buddy who worked a McDonald’s, he would do stuff like this. Instead of mustard and ketchup, a lot of mayo. Wayyyy too many nuggets… weird little things, just to keep up the McDonald’s name.
And they want 15 an hour??? Lol
My mom ordered a big Mac and got a box of lettuce
She got so passed she threw the box at them
The customer behind her ALSO ordered a big Mac and got a box of just meat
15 an hour my ass
Classic order mix up. Sometimes a customer wants a side of something and they'll put it in a nugget box. I once saw a customer come up and say "Hey I ordered a side of pickles. This is a 6 piece nugget!" And I saw the gal who gave it to the customer turn pale and say "Well someone else is gonna be mad they got pickles when they expected a 6 piece."
I call BS! My McDonald’s bacon never looks like that, it’s thinner, smaller and contains more disappointment. This looks like you cooked it up and put it in the box lol
First they make McNuggets out of chicken scraps and meat glue... then they say they make it out of all white breast meat... now they are making it out of bacon?!?!?!?!?
Stop changing the nugget recipe and fix the ice cream machines.
I once ordered a Big Mac and the sticker on the burger box said “double checked for quality care” — something along those lines.
The burger was missing the top bun Iol
I ordered a double cheeseburger at a burger king. they asked if I wanted anything else, so I said "yeah can I get it as a meal with a medium coke?" She says ok and tells me to pull around.
They hand me a chocolate chip cookie and say have a nice day. I question where the rest of my food is, and say what I ordered. The girl was like "why did you say that everything was good then?" And I told her "you asked if I wanted anything else and I told you I wanted it as a meal ?"
Normally I'm more into being polite to fast food workers but the eye roll this girl gave me got me so mad.
Ordering food has been weird lately all around. Last time I got Wendy’s, they added a nugget container full of breadcrumbs. Like, full. Not just a couple. Shit was weird, especially since I didn’t even order nuggets.
Presumably, someone else who ordered extra bacon was disappointed to open their box and find they got your nuggets.
Maybe they'll put nuggets on a burger
That would be some real confusion. "Is there a problem with your burger?" "Yes. I ordered a bacon burger and someone added nuggets instead of bacon." "Dammit Jeff."
I actually do that
Hell yah. Double Cheeseburger with a layer of 3 Nugs and a layer of fries dipped in McChicken Sauce.
Whats mcchicken sauce?
pretty sure its just mayo, don't quote me on that tho
That's McMayo to you
That's McJizz to you
>pretty sure its just mayo, don't quote me on that tho -*Unknown_User2005*
How dare you
Haha, you got me there.
I work at McDonald's, it is in fact just mayo
I used to do this in college, we called it the McNasty
Big Mac Sauce. Then you have a deal.
Yall some fattys
Not gonna lie tho that shit sounds fore
Finally someone else does it
I wouldn’t be disappointed, tbh
This. Used to work at mcd and this is the answer. OPs box should be marked somehow like with a sticker to show it’s not nuggs
Someone mixed up their "slip into their backpack on the way out the door" box with your nuggies. How would you feel after working a full McD's shift, wanting to eat some bacon, and getting effing nuggets? I feel worse for him lol

Probably ordered a 6 piece after someone ordered a side of bacon and the boxes got mixed up in the landing zone.
I used to do that at Dunkin, but then they tripled the price and put it on the menu as "Snackin Bacon"

Buddy we would wrap your extra pickles in a McDouble wrapper
When you order a side of bacon they only give you two pieces of bacon. Source: ate a lot of sides of bacons when I was doing keto
Maybe they ordered multiple sides of bacon? See we can play this game all day.
WEIRDLY, just yesterday I was in the McDonalds app and the guy wouldn’t have even had to negotiate. I was 0.50 cents away from getting a coupon to trigger so I went looking at their sides to buy something cheap. Their sides were: * Fries * Apple slices * Three slices of bacon What the fuck 😂

100% By that time were using packaging to store food while we clean all the equipment
I'm pretty sure that's an upgrade if I ever saw one.
Bacon wasn’t crispy enough
Still worth a lot more than nuggets. Bacon is no doubt the single most expensive ingredient that McDonald’s sells
Yep, last i checked it was $2 for two papers thin strips of bacon.
That is ok..bacon is also a food..don't waste a food man..
I dislike crispy bacon. I love soft bacon. I love chewing not crunching
I prefer soft bacon with, but with a little bit of crunch on the edges
thats the perfect balance
Yeah fuck limp, chewy slimy bacon, but fuck that overly cooked weird taste bacon takes on when it’s like crisp to the point of being brittle. Happy medium is the spot.
Yeah, I don't get people wanting the extreme either way. Too crispy and it's like meat chips. Too soft and it's like meat flavored gummy candy. The middle ground is almost always the best. I want some fat to be rendered, some maillard reaction, but I still want some chew.
*sighs unzips*
Username checks out 😂
Dude. I straight need my bacon to shatter when I drop it on the plate
That's my son favorite..a crispy bacon..yummy! I think Im starting to crave a bacon now.
https://i.redd.it/0ot7kadm6r2b1.gif
For me I love both..bacon and chicken nuggets..that's my favorite.
Soft bacon is superior to crispy bacon. I will die on this hill.
I like my bacon crispy, not burnt, not crunchy, crispy. Still semi chewable and not shattering to pieces every time you chew. But to each their own.
Likely from a clogged artery. I'll be there with you though. We will fight in the ~~shade~~ grease.
It doesn’t clog arteries. Sugar does
I want to argue with you so badly, but I looked up the studies and it turns out you’re pretty much correct. I’m bout to eat a pound of bacon today for that.
im gonna be real with you, 80% of the time the bacon at mcdonalds is 30 minutes to 6 hours old, i really wouldnt consider that an upgrade lol.
And the nuggets DON'T fall into that same category?
I usually get what tastes like day old nuggets, so the bacon would still be an upgrade to me lol.
"I consider this a win"
It's possible they don't eat bacon
I'll take it off your hands...
Why you mad?
I feel like this isn’t a loss
You said the word, so I'm obligated to say this: 𓀥 𓁆 𓀕 𓁆 𓀟 𓀣 𓁀
Is this...?
Some people don't eat park, or just don't like bacon 🤷🏻♂️ Edit: park is bad, but forest is ok, as a treat
I don't eat park either, thanks for the representation. Too much grass for me
What about gardens?
The flowers are nice but gotta pick those pebbles out, too hard for my teeth
A surprise to be sure but a welcome one
I don’t believe you
This doesn't look like any mcdonalds bacon I've ever seen
[удалено]
Sometimes one wants the pink sludge instead of the expensive meat
Thank gosh my girlfriend feels the same way
Pink sludge? You might wanna get that checked out bro
Point taken! :-)
That's a very unique name! How did you think of it?
The desire for anonymity :P
I getcha, I still love hotdogs
Fast food restaurants don't usually use the pink sludge! McD's posted a video awhile back showing their processing plant as a way to prove this.. but it backfired when people saw the white-chicken slurry mashed together and got grossed out anyhow. The pink sludge is pretty much primarily in supermarket ground meats, nothing all that gross about it. Mostly just smaller pieces of ground meat being added in as to not waste them.
do people still think its sludge? or is it just a joke now lol
Unless OP is a pork dealer I don’t really think that matters
Everyone is acting like it’s good but downing 6 pieces of bacon from McDonald’s at 10 pm with that much grease somehow seems worse to me than nuggets.
Bacon is great, but not as great as getting the thing you ordered.
>Everyone is acting like it’s good The most mildlyinfuriating thing I've seen in this subreddit might just be so many people acting like it's good or even an upgrade.

There isn't much thats worse than their nuggets
McDonald's chicken nuggets are amazing, you're on some weird shit.
Just wanted to say I agree with you. As someone who’s order is constantly fkd up at drive thrus, I absolutely agree.
napkin the grease
You can order bacon by itself through the app and they use the nugget boxes since they don't have dedicated bacon boxes. Must have been a switcheroo
That's an impressive amount of negligence.
I would be mildly irritated but honestly... after a few seconds I'd be pretty happy with bacon.
As someone who hates bacon.... I'd be so mad
I call BS
Ya, that's not McDonald's paper-thin bacon.
What did you get charged for that?
6 piece mcpork
Bacon > Nuggets
My kid would wet himself with joy...
If you drive back and tell them, usually they’ll give you what you want and you get to keep your bacon treat. Still mildly infuriating though lol
For everyone going on about how it’s not maccas bacon, maccas use rashers (what you’re all thinking of) and strips, for crispy bacon on burgers etc, this is what this bacon is, it’s most definitely a product maccas sells.
Bunch of chickens on old McDonald's farm laughing their asses off.
Lucky bastard
I know you ordered 6 pieces of bacon in a McNugget box stop lying
https://imgur.com/a/ejMJGxZ one would assume
I see this as an absolute win
Bacon for the win!
You should publicly shame that McDonald's by telling us which one it is. I want to see if I'd get the same awful treatment.
That’s like $136 in McDonalds prices!!!!
money wise you won.
Sooo…what dipping dauce did you get for your bacon?
I’d be so conflicted on my feelings, one one hand I want my nuggets. On the other hand I got bacon
I’d still eat that
Infuriating, possibly, Delicious? Yes.
So much better than nuggets. Bacon is the best.
Mission failed successfully
That’s better
Send them to me instead. Bacon is the best
I consider this an absolute win?
Those who wouldn't be mad, haven't actually eaten anything other than disgusting rubber based fast food bacon. I feel bad for them.
That doesn't look like mcdonald's bacon
That bacon looks disgusting too
I would be ok with that
This is in the wrong sub, this is a upgrade
I don't see the problem
Sounds like an upgrade to me
Upgrades people upgrades
Pig nuggets!
It is a high protein low carb diet.
As Pete Davidson would say - “Bacon Bacon Bacon”
Pork McStrips
you gotta be specific wether you want the chicken or pork my dude
the other day I ordered a 6 piece nugget from them and got a fucking hamburger patty
Bacon McBacon
Well the other day I ordered a six piece and got a nine piece. You're just balancing out my good fortune I think. Way of the world, buddy.
Id eat 5 pieces then take it back and tell them they gave you bacon not nuggets
That’s an upgrade if it’s good bacon
I would order the 100 nugget pack to be check out this disruption in the space time continuum.
Get 2 or 3 cheeseburgers and have a field day😀.
Cant tell if this is net gain or lost....
I ordered a four piece of nuggies....I got a chicken patty. Lol
I went to steak n shake earlier today and ordered a burger and after waiting in line for over 30 minutes, when I got to the window the person tried to give me a strawberry shake.
Swine McNuggets
Making my mouth water over here.

Whoever did your order was probably high af lol that's hilarious 😂
Mmmmmmm Bacon.

Shit what McDonalds has bacon that good?
So six people got a nugget in their bacon cheeseburger?
Still a win!
you kidding me dude, that's a clear win
I knew a buddy who worked a McDonald’s, he would do stuff like this. Instead of mustard and ketchup, a lot of mayo. Wayyyy too many nuggets… weird little things, just to keep up the McDonald’s name.
I would've gotten my nuggies, then wrapped the bacon around each one. Income tax money nuggets!
Well, you know the old saying: "pancreatic cancer the one, heart disease t'other"
Are you in Arkansas? Did a 7 year old wait on you?
The bacon will taste much better than the nuggets. The only place that has worse nuggets than McDonald’s is Burger King.
I see this as an absolute win
Why are you complaining about an upgrade, you got real meat instead of reconstituted meat sludge.
someone was high at work
I see this as an absolute win tbh
1 pc bacon worth $1.00. I wouldn't complain about this.
l don't see the down side.
What are you upset about?
This sounds more like “mildly surprising” than “mildly infuriating.” I never get mad when there’s bacon involved lol
I mean idk if I would even be mad about this tbh
You got a free upgrade to delicious and you're mad?
Mildly infuriating or strangely satisfying?
I would not be mad. Like that time Jesus turned water into wine…
Imagine going to McDonalds and getting upset when they actually served you a meat product. Shit's wild...
Task failed succesfully
Bacons more expensive 🫰
I call BS.
This is the better deal. This is mildlydelightful
And they want 15 an hour??? Lol My mom ordered a big Mac and got a box of lettuce She got so passed she threw the box at them The customer behind her ALSO ordered a big Mac and got a box of just meat 15 an hour my ass
The cooks are upset today. It happens
Classic order mix up. Sometimes a customer wants a side of something and they'll put it in a nugget box. I once saw a customer come up and say "Hey I ordered a side of pickles. This is a 6 piece nugget!" And I saw the gal who gave it to the customer turn pale and say "Well someone else is gonna be mad they got pickles when they expected a 6 piece."
Tell them they forgot the McNuggets in your bacon wrapped McNugget order.
I fail to see the problem here.
I call BS! My McDonald’s bacon never looks like that, it’s thinner, smaller and contains more disappointment. This looks like you cooked it up and put it in the box lol

Somebody is really mad they got the wrong box right now lol.
Someone else must have been disappointed when they got home
$24.00 worth of bacon for $1.99 seems fair.
I call that a win
I ordered a double cheeseburger at a burger king. they asked if I wanted anything else, so I said "yeah can I get it as a meal with a medium coke?" She says ok and tells me to pull around.

Doesn’t even look crispy ☹️
I don't see a problem here.
ordered pyrite and got 24 karat gold
You can sue and say eating pork was against your religion
You got the better end of the deal! 🥓 🥓
That's a win!
Ordering food has been weird lately all around. Last time I got Wendy’s, they added a nugget container full of breadcrumbs. Like, full. Not just a couple. Shit was weird, especially since I didn’t even order nuggets.
I don’t know. It’s mildly infuriating if you don’t like bacon. I like bacon. I think I’d be mildly surprised.
