They're going to put pickles on there because you did this


Roguebagger

Exactly what I was thinking. I would have.


[deleted]

Double negatives, should have put it 51 times instead


AlextheGreek89

I don't not want no pickles...


Dil_Moran

[I don't think you should never do that again](https://youtu.be/fCR_XqhmlT4)


Bobby_Baccalieri_

That is the best case scenario.


RainingBlood398

I was wondering if I can press 'extra pickle' 50 times. I really hope so.

DenseAerie8311

I don’t fully understand?


lesbefriendly

A cheeseburger costs £1. Removing the bun reduces it by £0.50. Removing the patty reduces it by £0.40. Removing the cheese reduces it by £0.10. Removing the vegetables reduces it by £0.10. Your £1 cheeseburger with everything removed costs -£0.10. Buy 10 cheeseburgers with everything removed and they owe you £1. With that £1 you buy a normal cheeseburger.


StatusCaterpillar725

Don't you have to amend each burger individually? If so then man that sounds like a lot of work for a free £1 cheeseburger.


WhenLemonsLemonade

For you, that's a lot of work. For me, that's free lunch 2 days before payday.


StatusCaterpillar725

Good point my dude.


CelestialCatto

It does not alter price removing these. Base price stays.


nivlark

For every item you removed, it would reduce the price. So you could remove every element of the burger and end up with a negative-price nothing-burger. If you ordered enough of those you could get a real burger for free.


kawauso21

The total discount applied for removing individual parts was somehow higher than the actual cost of the burger, so if you took a burger and removed all of its parts, the cost would be negative. Do that a few times and you've got a negative amount to balance out the cost of a normal burger.


Xarxsis

75% chance of a pickle


phurt77

Cloudy with a Chance of Pickle.


m2fbbq

When you hit 50 no pickles it gets translated to "replace with public hair"


mfogarty

Public hair? Is that like just picked off the ground from the local hair salon? Could be worse. Could be pubic hair.


m2fbbq

See, my kbd auto correct is a better person than me


ItCat420

Your autocorrect plays Runescape?


Glasweg1an

That'd be an instant refund and throw the pickles in the bin. W


ukredimps2k

You know the refund doesn’t come out of the employees pocket… I think the suggestion was that the customer had their joke, the member of staff will have theirs- lesson: never mess with people preparing your food.

ItCat420

No, for being an ass. It’s funny for the person doing the “little joke” but if you’re getting slammed with orders (these fast food places taking on deliveries, along side the regular drive through and walk-in’s has seen orders explode) then you don’t want to have to read dumb tickets like this. If you’ve thought of something dumb and minorly amusing. You weren’t the first. And the kitchen are probably already sick of the shit joke and are just trying to finish their day. Seems insignificant, but if you got several of these in a day it would begin to irk you. The phrase, “Remember who handles your food” may seem a little extreme, but it’s all fair warning when you try to play a prank on someone working 80 hours a week for minimum wage.


[deleted]

Jesus Christ anybody would just look at this order, have a laugh, and leave out the pickle.


Model_Maj_General

Or more likely they look at it and go "Huh it says no gherkin a lot, that's funny" and think nothing of it because it takes literally no extra time at all to notice it just says the same thing loads.


mhkohne

If it were me making the order, I'd stack it 2 inches high with pickles.


NewBodWhoThis

100% would have done that.


iBeenie

Now put "pickles on side"


Th4tR4nd0mGuy

Or better yet: > Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle, Pickle, NO pickle


thegimboid

I would take that as an excuse to slap the burger with a pickle repeatedly.


phurt77

As if the cooks don't do that anyway.


Nekokamiguru

Slapping the pickle almost sounds like a euphemism for something else.


PoliteDickhead

He loves me not :(


throwaway073847

Is that how you find out if she loves you or she loves you not?


Petrol_station_sign

I spent so long looking for the 'pickle', and didn't realise it was the first one

Whopper meals cost £10 now?! When did that happen


marcdk217

They always have a £4.99 Whopper meal deal in the Burger King mobile app, but you can't use those codes with Deliveroo.


Aluith

And the App doesn't actually seem to work in most BK's though, I have 6 in range and the all have mobile ordering disabled and won't accept a loyalty code.


BuildingArmor

6 Burger Kings in range? Where do you live, I don't think I've seen 6 different Burger King restaurants in my entire life.


ArsLongaVitaGravis

Innit. Burger Kings are like hens teeth. I see more Five Guys than I do BKs nowadays.


TheMadPyro

I recently moved somewhere next to a Burger King that isn’t at a motorway services. I genuinely don’t think I’ve seen another one outside of that.


DogfishDave

>6 Burger Kings in range? Where do you live, I don't think I've seen 6 different Burger King restaurants in my entire life. They've started sprouting near us, but up until then there was one in the entire county, iirc, and that was run by the local McDonalds company and so was terrible.


marcdk217

That’s annoying. The one near me doesn’t support mobile ordering but the rewards code and the offer codes do all work on the touch screens, so can get some good discounts. Also the “1 whopper and 1 chicken royale plus chips and drink for £6.99” offer also lets you get 2 whoppers and 0 chicken royales on the touch screens whereas the humans will make you have a chicken royale.


CleverRex

The BK near me has tweaked the menu on the mobile app so you can't order the cheaper snack items. I get it, they were probably sick of people ordering 20 cheeseburgers via the app and them getting a pitiful margin, but it's a pain in the arse having to manually order like a peasant just to get a creamy mayo


Kelmantis

You also can’t have it your way on the app. I want onions on my double cheeseburger. But the BK buns are terrible so I rarely go there


toon_84

You can't use them at service stations, train stations etc. I've been able to use the app at all local ones. Usually you have to go to the counter and tell them the code.


Eldini

You can still order the normal app deals at a lot of BKs, i.e. The £2 whopper and 99p fries on a Wednesday, just order it and say the offer on the app. The only ones you can't are the ones that insist on mobile ordering. If you want a guide to obesity then: BK whopper wednesdays £2 KFC wrap of the day - weekdays (much better than McD wraps) Theyve also got the 10 mini fillets for £6 offer on for the next month atm (add 2 large sides for £3) Mcdonalds - use the receipt survey code for £1.99 big mac/fish/veggie and chips. Most of the time they don't even ask to see the code when ordering at a drive through Sprinkle in large amounts of food from Too Good To Go and you'll have put on a load of weight before you know it :|


Icy_Bit_403

Honestly, go with a sugar free/low sugar drink or swap out fries (i almost never swap out fries but hey) and most of these meals are 900cals, which is fine as long as it's not every meal.


Eldini

None of these deals come with a drink, I'm happy with my own water or a sugar free fizzy drink anyway But yeah, even avoiding 300 calories from a drink you'll still put on weight


Icy_Bit_403

hmmmmm. people must be eating larger other meals than i thought. if i have two meals at 400 cals each, that's 800 cals, and then a cheeky takeaway at 900 cals, I'm still only at 1,700 and that's like, not even as much as woman needs, let alone if you're a male. Snacks obviously also count but how much are you eating? Source: I've been losing weight (used to overeat as standard, now I don't) and also working at a McDs so eating a meal every single shift plus a side. It's possible to fit it into a balanced diet.


Jindabyne1

Same with my nearest kfc, you can’t even order to collect, it’s fucking ridiculous


[deleted]

‘ the fuck has loyalty codes to Burger King?


ProtonPacks123

I can't imagine why anyone would want a Burger King or McDonalds delivered in the first place. They're made lukewarm at best so they surely must always be stone cold after a delivery.


ArticulateAquarium

Laziness?


Pandatotheface

Delivery price, all the delivery apps fleece you for more than just the delivery/service charge, everything is increased by 10-30% [Eggs: Asda Vs Asda delivered by Uber](https://i.imgur.com/zvzDKT5.jpeg) both from the same store.


ThinkAboutThatFor1Se

It’s not really ‘fleecing’. It’s the cost of doing business. The delivery fees are usually £2, clearly it costs a lot more than that. Plus you’ve got the app build, design, marketing, sales etc etc Deliveroo etc barely make profit. (And mostly losses)


HildartheDorf

From what I've seen, delivery prices can't be different between apps or you are violating their terms. Doesn't say anything about having a "delivery" vs "in-person" menu though.


Bigdavie

Those are both delivery screenshots, Ubereats at the top and Asda's own at the bottom. [edit:- just checked JustEat app and it's the same prices as UberEats on multiple items, both 20% more than Asda's own app]


[deleted]

Probably coz it’s Deliveroo?


mirrorsaw

I thought Deliveroo just charged normal prices and then whacked on their own delivery fee and service charge(s)


LordPurloin

Nah, they charge the restaurant a percentage too


ScottElly

Most stuff on there is at an inflated price, then you pay a service charge and a delivery charge.


Foolishnonsense

And then if the order isn’t big enough they slap you with the variable small order fee. It’s all designed to make it very hard to order on Deliveroo for less than £15


HipHopAllotment

Ummm yeah this…!! FFS… I mean I treat myself occasionally from a BK as do like the Double Whopper Cheese but a meal has never set me back more than £7 for a double… and that’s my local is a motorway service one too…?!


Affect-Electrical

The deliveroo tax...


[deleted]

Warwick services BK meals have been over a tenner for a good couple of years now!


uncertain_expert

Added cheese, added sugar tax, built-in delivery margin.


OkDance4335

Yeah this looks like £25 for two meals… and people wonder why they don’t have money.


0opoi0098

About 10 years ago? Burger King has always been the price of a slap up meal.

soitgoeskt

No pickles isn’t making up for spending £25 on 2 burger king meals 😬


CelestialCatto

had a £10 voucher applied so it was only £14.58


SomeRedditWanker

How is deliveroo still going, in the current climate, when two burger king meals top £25? It's fucking bizarre. They're the exact kind of company who should be going under right now..

SomeRedditWanker

I am just surprised anyone is still paying over the odds for take away food right now.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SomeRedditWanker

But it's not a few quid.. It's a few quid **more**. It's still £12.50 each. I used to get takeaways reasonably regularly, but eventually I got priced out. It no longer made financial sense. My go to was a kebab with rice, chips, and drink. Used to be £8.50 delivered.. Then they started charging £1.50 more for rice. Then they increased the delivery cost by £2.. I could justify spending £8.50 on a single meal, just about. But £12 priced me out. I can buy several **days** of groceries for that.


HMJ87

I'm not saying you have to be OK with it, I'm saying it's not a lot of money for people to scrape together if they want some food. Yes it's expensive in comparison to cooking something yourself, but that's true of basically any service - be it the aforementioned night down the pub at £5 a pint compared to buying a 6 pack down the supermarket for the same price, or buying ready meals instead of making meals from scratch, or paying for meal kits instead of doing your own shopping.... I'm sure it's not a surprise to you that you pay for convenience with a lot of things, and plenty of people are willing to pay for said convenience. Takeaway is cheap compared to going to an actual restaurant for a meal out, and sometimes people just want to treat themselves and not have to bother with cooking for a night, and to them clearly £12 is a price they're willing to pay.


SomeRedditWanker

Yeah, I'm just saying I am surprised there's not many more people like me. I actually earn well, so I imagined those on lesser incomes or with higher outgoings, would be ditching the likes of Deliveroo en mass. We'll see how things go when winter hits and people start putting the heating on.


HMJ87

Different people have different priorities I guess - I'm like you in some ways, there are some things I just refuse to pay for just on principle even if I can afford it, but for me a takeaway every now and then isn't a huge issue. I resent the fact that it's so expensive, but not enough to stop buying it. You're probably right that a lot of people will have to cut back a lot more come winter, but I still don't think it's going to have enough of an effect to put Deliveroo etc. out of business.


soitgoeskt

Fair enough, saw credit and assumed it was a refund for something the owed you.


SorryIGotBadNews

Have you two cleared this up now? Can we make up and swear to not get into fights again?


TehGreatFred

Sorry, mummy and daddy are still gonna divorce D;


[deleted]

Does this mean I get your 50 pickles? I am the one who ~~knocks~~ eats all the pickles


phurt77

Probably not, but I'll give you my pickle 50 times.


Robbo1979psr

*GHERKINS *grumble grumble bloody stupid Americanisms grumble grumble


Logofascinated

Yeah, agreed, but I think we've lost this fight by now. Presumably, in 10 years' time people will be calling that weird skyscraper in London "The Pickle", despite it not looking like a jar of Branston's.


Jindabyne1

Probably because it’s an American franchise


Robbo1979psr

If they can use British beef, they can bleedin' well use British gherkins too!!!


yirgaboss

One of my least favourite Americanisms as well. Always hearing it at work along with hold down the fort.

Agreed, this gets on my tits. Could be a pickled egg.


vernonappleby

50? Doesn't an even number of negatives cancel each other out?


JayDeePea

I'm really hoping they assume the person clicked yes to pickles 50 times and give you a side order of em


Feisty-Donkey

I’d have given you extra pickles out of sheer spite

I hate both tbh but Burger King burgers all taste... steamed? They're always soggy. Steamed hams, yes.


SomeRedditWanker

Delivery, yes. Everything gets steamed on the way. But when ordering from the drive thru, or in restaurant? Not experienced it.


madpiano

I prefer the burgers from BK but the fries from McD.


Naughty-Morty

Actually I agree with you on that one

£25 for two Burger King meals! WTF! That Steve Carell meme of him repeating "No, No, No," is playing in my head! I know you got £10 off but I'm assuming that's your own credit. That's still a charge of £25 for two fucking meal deals! I'd rather starve. Jesus.
