In response to "This was a serious point of contention in my childhood" by JD

I worked in a McDonalds for a couple of years as a teen. It was very easy to get a burger without mustard as long as you requested it.

I literally did that sort of thing all the time. Back then we worked a grill and microwaves were not used.

Did you work when they were doing the McDLT? I *hated* having an entirely different cooking process for one stupid burger. -- nm - David Jun 3, 16:08 5
- It's fun discovering the McD cabal. I had to cook those things. The styrofoam atrocity. -- nm - loosilu Jun 3, 16:19 2
  - Oh, right! It even had special packaging. - David Jun 3, 16:20 1
    - 8-) I have vague memories of thinking..oooo..look McDonalds made a burger just for me - JD Jun 3, 16:23
- Damn you, Jason Alexander!!! -- nm - Reagen Jun 3, 16:16
- laws, yes and it was HORRIBLE. -- nm - Diva Jun 3, 16:11
Quarter pounder, no mustard, no onion, extra pickle. - znufrii Jun 3, 15:16
Is this really a thing at McDonald's? - Krusty Jun 3, 15:15 20
- Kim and I *always* order burgers without mustard. -- nm - David Jun 3, 16:02 1
  - My people! -- nm - Krusty Jun 3, 16:23
- yes. -- nm - Diva Jun 3, 15:36
- I worked there in high school. Mustard is required. -- nm - loosilu Jun 3, 15:19
- It most definitely was at one point. Burgers / Cheeseburgers would be made ahead of time and had ketchup / mustard and two pickle pieces - JD Jun 3, 15:17 7
  - We had a strict policy at our place and no burgers sat in the bin longer than 10 minutes. We had to toss food from time to time. -- nm - Diva Jun 3, 15:38
  - And the reconstituted onions! - znufrii Jun 3, 15:20 5
    - That's right. They were the least offending so I kind of forgot about them -- nm - JD Jun 3, 15:22 1
      - Yup. I forgot about them too. They barely had any flavor. I still didn't like them. - Krusty Jun 3, 15:25
    - Velcro pickles! they stuck to the wall. -- nm - loosilu Jun 3, 15:20 2
      - And pickles are friends, not lovers. - znufrii Jun 3, 15:21 1
        
        *laughing* I was wondering where you were going with that -- nm - JD Jun 3, 15:23
- Everywhere except the NYC area, pretty much, I think. -- nm - znufrii Jun 3, 15:17 3
  - The tri-state area too? I thought I've had McDonald's elsewhere but maybe not. -- nm - Krusty Jun 3, 15:21 2
    - I don’t know exactly where the border the no-mustard zone is, will have to do a little more research. - znufrii Jun 3, 15:23 1
      - I'd love to know why we never got down with mustard on burgers. I'd likely be fine with it if I had it from the beginning. - Krusty Jun 3, 15:26
- You just don’t notice it. They don’t put much on. -- nm - spamlet Jun 3, 15:15 3
  - Interesting They don't put any on here. It's ketchup and pickles. - Krusty Jun 3, 15:16 2
    - Do you then get a pound and a half of ketchup? - spamlet Jun 3, 15:18 1
      - Not even close actually. Usually it's barely there and you have to add more. -- nm - Krusty Jun 3, 15:19
Trust me, my parents learned ;-) This was back in the heat lamp days and burgers in their paper wraps just sitting there for who knows how long - JD Jun 3, 15:12
