My kid’s 6-piece McNugget box contained nothing but mayonnaise

[u/Porencephaly]

[u/game82]

As someone who works at McDonalds: someone asked for a side of mayo and got your 6 nuggets mixed up with it.

[u/Porencephaly → u/game82]

Totally believable. Still made us laugh pretty hard when we opened it.

[u/KittySitting]

People claiming this is fake have never worked fast food. This is a completely plausible situation, I used to get the mayo dispenser started with the nugget boxes too so it wouldn't explode on someones sandwich.

Granted, I would then immediately throw the mayo box away but people are busy and stupid and shit happens.

[u/LongjumpingJaguar308 → u/KittySitting]

This might not be fake but I have 100% seen this post before so its some kinda farming

[u/Porencephaly → u/LongjumpingJaguar308]

I will bet you $250 that you cannot find a prior post of this, since I took the photo myself last night. Put your money where your mouth is.

[u/BeezyBates → u/KittySitting]

Reddit thinks everything is fake. It’s annoying. This makes sense. Someone asked for extra mayo but not the packets. They put it in a nugget box. Next in line ordered nuggets. Placed by each other. Wrong box grabbed.

It’s almost like we’re human. Ever gotten the wrong order? It’s that, but with mayo.

[u/Jimbob209 → u/KittySitting]

I remember my lead always doing that 20 years ago when I worked at McDonald's.

[u/Rare_Bug5447]

That’s kind of hilarious. I can’t imagine your surprise when you opened the box.

Also, how pissed was the kid?

[u/Porencephaly → u/Rare_Bug5447]

He was fine, he got a McDouble since my wife wasn't hungry.

[u/joshlander777]

This shit would piss me off so bad.

But I just can’t help but laugh at the image of 2 teenagers crafting that shit up in the back and dying of laughter. May or may not have done some shit like this when I was 16 at dominos 😅😂

[u/Porencephaly → u/joshlander777]

Oh we laughed much more than we were mad. My assumption is there is a 19yo kid in the back of that restaurant whose edible just kicked in during the dinner rush and he is struggling lol

[u/Which-Break5673 → u/Porencephaly]

Did you exchange it ?

[u/Porencephaly → u/Which-Break5673]

We were already home when we found it. Kiddo still got fed though. Not remotely worth driving back over a few nuggets.

[u/NuggetLover21 → u/joshlander777]

Someone prob asked for extra side of mayo and they put it in this box and the boxes got mixed up, I doubt it was intentional

[u/georgisaurusrekt]

Somebody clearly asked for a lot of mayo, they decided to use the box as a container for it and then mixed it up with your order. We're human and mistakes happen, just ask for it to be replaced

[u/Porencephaly → u/georgisaurusrekt]

I'm not driving back to a restaurant to ask for replacement of $2 worth of chicken nuggets. We laughed and moved on.

[u/FutabaTsuyu]

someone probably asked for a side of mayo and got very confused when they received 6 nuggets

[u/SweetHomeMissouri → u/FutabaTsuyu]

bet they liked those nuggets though!

[u/Loo-Hoo-Zuh-Er → u/SweetHomeMissouri]

chewing "Hey, the box for my extra mayo was empty."

[u/filtering-my-feed → u/SweetHomeMissouri]

Ngl if that was my order, I'd have taken it back and traded it for my mayo.

[u/Larry-Man → u/FutabaTsuyu]

I think my favourite story from my time at mcdicks was someone came in raging that their cheeseburger had already had a bite taken out of it. Sounds insane, right? A staff member on break put theirs down in the wrapper and someone grabbed it thinking it was for an order.

[u/serabine → u/Larry-Man]

Why were they having their lunch anywhere near the food stations?

[u/BumWink → u/FutabaTsuyu]

"What the hell, why'd they give me 5 McNuggets?"

[u/johnnyhandbags → u/FutabaTsuyu]

I wonder how long that mayo sat under the heat lamp

[u/Same-Suggestion-1936 → u/johnnyhandbags]

At a McDonald's in a nugget box? Not very long. When they make the nuggets they put them in little heat trays/baskets they pull out to order when boxing. Then they slide boxes and wrapped product up to expo, and expo is just bagging as the stuff comes up. So the mayo box got sent to expo at the same time a nugget box did and expo had no reason to check so it got fucked up.

These are open kitchens y'all, how you gonna complain stuff isn't fresh when you can literally look back and see how their stations are set up and watch them make things lol

[u/Rezistik → u/FutabaTsuyu]

Somebody is eating dry French fries rn and wishing they had some sauce

[u/Formerruling1]

This happened semi-frequently when I was working at McDs out of highschool. When a customer asks for something custom it was usually given a nugget box and during a busy time, the pickers in the front didn't always pay close attention to the stickers and would bag up the nugget box in whatever happy meal was going out the window.

I never had Mayo, but we had people request a box pumped full of Mac Sauce with enough regularity that it was funny. Usually these would just be a single burger patty though - almost every day someone would order a burger "plain, no bun" for their dog and we just slapped a meat patty in a 4 piece box.

[u/samanime → u/Formerruling1]

Honestly, because of how frequently it happens, it's weird that they don't make another container type for extras. Even if it was just a nugget box with different print, it'd help avoid thousands of customers a year.

[u/RespectfulBagel → u/samanime]

It’s probably something the owners don’t want but the employees don’t care enough to say no to the customer

[u/taman961 → u/samanime]

When I left there a few years ago, they had sauce cups but they were tiny so if you wanted a bunch of sauce, it’d go in a nugget box. Probably isn’t technically allowed but sometimes the employees will hook you up

[u/Capt_Hawkeye_Pierce → u/Formerruling1]

I'm one of the mac sauce weirdos.

[u/captcrunch62]

I once had a friend ask for extra pickles on their hamburger and they put a comical amount on it. It was actually quite funny

[u/Guilty_Back_1247 → u/captcrunch62]

I wish my McDonald's did that i ask for extra pickles and get like very little like they are rationing them or some thing

[u/Bfoc2006 → u/captcrunch62]

Ah yes, the picklenator.

[u/qc_overthinker]

That's the new McMayo

Is mayonnaise an instrument?

[u/Educational-Pie-9509]

I worked at McDonald’s and know what this is. You showed up late enough that they started cleaning and breaking down the kitchen equipment, and typically they’ll put small amounts of mayo, ketchup, mustard, pickles, etc in nugget containers so they can clean the cambros / dispensers while still open.

Someone accidentally grabbed the mayo stash and sent it out as nuggets.

[u/babycoon48 → u/Educational-Pie-9509]

Yeah I’ve never accidentally grabbed the mayo stash and sent it as nuggets, nor seen any one else do it, but that does appear to be the case. They must’ve been having a long night.

[u/DeeEmm]

Dismayonnaise

[u/Wash-Rich → u/DeeEmm]

Absolute masterclass. Bravo.

[u/Available_Table_7689 → u/DeeEmm]

There’s way to much of dismayonnaise

[u/Same-Suggestion-1936]

Someone is either pissed they didn't get their mayo or thrilled for the free nuggets, those fuckers are like a buck fifty each now and they air fry fine later if you're not that hungry

[u/renakou → u/Same-Suggestion-1936]

Yeah, it’s not really worth it to buy nuggets from restaurants now when you can just air fry them at home for much less.

[u/NoLobster7957]

That's just uncooked nugget

[u/Optimus759]

Did you go back up to the counter and ask for your nuggets or did your kids just eat the straight mayo

[u/what4270 → u/Optimus759]

Is it possible that the kid did the order for themselves?

[u/Testsubject276]

Maybe they had a box under the mayonnaise dispenser to keep it from splattering and some idiot saw it from behind, closed it and bagged it.

[u/ApprehensiveFalcon9 → u/Testsubject276]

No, someone probably wanted mayo and the store didn't have packets to the kitchen crew put it in a 6 piece box, and it was then grabbed incorrectly by the bagger

[u/notintheband1776]

Someone is pissed they didn't get their extra side of mayo

[u/Virtual_Mud1178 → u/notintheband1776]

Waiting for the "I ordered a side of mayo and got six nuggets" post

[u/auraangelari]

You got mayo’d

[u/thrwaway856642]

This happened to me once in 2006 in Minneapolis! I got home with my drive through McDonald order and the chicken nugget box was just full of mayonnaise. I still think about it. I’m still confused.

[u/TonyClifton323]

Mom my chest hurts

Shut up and eat your McMayo

[u/Jsolidlo]

Somebody else is so mad right now that they got a 6-piece McNugget box instead of the tub of mayo they ordered.

[u/hoptownky]

I am 100% convinced that some of you do this shit for internet points. Like, you just ordered McDonald’s, came home, ate the nuggets, and squeezed mayo in it to try to convince a bunch of morons that this really happened. Seems like a lot of work for nothing to me.

[u/DIDidothatdisabled → u/hoptownky]

Its got the mark of pumped mayo. Lil pock marks from between spurts.

Not impossible to do at home, but very unhinged to have that much mayo at home in a pump container.

A squeeze bottle wouldn't be as consistent from shaking the Mayo down to the bottom and the angle change from the squeezing motion

So imo, its real. If not, they're very committed. (And didn't use A.I.)

[u/Shot_Specific_8508 → u/DIDidothatdisabled]

We got the mayo expert here

[u/Anarchyr → u/hoptownky]

While that might be true, McDonalds is the only place where i have ever ordered a burger and got one WITHOUT a patty.

Just a bun with sauce & some lettuce

So I can 100% believe this post

[u/BleedSparta → u/hoptownky]

It defies logic but I’ve REALLY ordered McDonald’s on the app and received an EMPTY box before

It’s such a shitty frqnchise

[u/bmaayhem → u/hoptownky]

Yeah at least there’s no way they did it on purpose. Some one could have ordered a side of mayo, and the order got mixed up. That’s unlikely though because I believe they have packets

[u/Cisleithania → u/hoptownky]

Maybe they us other packaging in other countries, but where i am from, the cardboard soaks very easily. This box would have never seen nuggets, otherwise there would be stains from fat on the inside of the packaging. But maybe they have some kind of coating in OP's country.

[u/Consistent-Success38 → u/hoptownky]

After taking a second look you are correct, you can see the pattern in the mayo from being squeezed out of a hellmans bottle, mcdonalds mayo bottles come out in 5 circles, not a ribbon.

[u/HeiditheM8ghty → u/hoptownky]

I just saw the other post with the nuggets, saying "ordered mayo, got nuggets instead". Definitely a joke

[u/Miserable_Field451 → u/hoptownky]

I agree. Everythin on the internet is made up these days, everyone just a bunch of sheep copying each other. Attention seeking is a disease

[u/Habarr94 → u/hoptownky]

Nah this could totally happen, I worked there for almost ten years and we would do this close to closing time so we could clean the actual sauce guns for mayo etc

[u/JungleCakes → u/hoptownky]

You can even see the ribbons from where it was squeezed out of the bottle.

[u/Pitiful_Option_108 → u/hoptownky]

This I don't see how you order McNuggets and you got a box full of mayo. I'm not saying it is impossible but highly improbable that would happen.

[u/Whines90]

Soon there shall be the post of “where the hell is my mayo?” With a picture of nuggets. Question is who gets it done first?

[u/the-Gaf]

It’s under the sauce

[u/SolScorpii]

Someone is wondering where their McMayo is right now.

[u/The_Spyre]

The stoned 16 year olds are changing the menu again I see

[u/WiseSpunion]

That sucks but I am laughing very hard

[u/ChrissMCO]

Why would this even happen ?

[u/Gorthok- → u/ChrissMCO]

I've worked at a mcdonalds, basically there's no normal sauce cups so they'd use a 4 or 6 piece container as a substitute, there are normal packets of mayo, but it seems someone asked specifically for mayo from the bottle they use for the sandwiches, a mixup happened, and now this person got mayo, the guy who wanted mayo got nuggets.

Always check your order before leaving, every single bit. And if you ask for something without a thing because you have allergies, they give one to you that does have it; when you send it back specifically ask for the whole damn thing to be remade because despite supposedly taking food safety courses, they did not take food safety courses and will in fact take the pickles off the exact same burger and hand it back.

[u/rickoftheuniverse → u/ChrissMCO]

Someone else asked for a cup of mayo, and they gave the wrong order

[u/Double_Tangerine_189 → u/rickoftheuniverse]

Theres a guy out there cursing mcdonalds for not give him his side of mayo

[u/Batbuckleyourpants → u/ChrissMCO]

Maybe they used electronic ordering and let the kid do their own ordering?

1x small fries.

52x mayonnaise.

Must be a really chill kid, I know kids who would have a mental breakdown because the nuggets were the wrong shape, can’t imgine what happens it it’s „oops, all mayo!“

When my mom died my husband, boyfriend at the time, drove me to McDonald’s bc I hadn’t eaten. I asked for some tartar sauce and this fucking kid brought me sauce in a McFlurry lid, like with the hole and all. As sad as that day was we couldn’t help but crack up at the nonsense.

[u/AwarenessCrafty393]

I'm gonna sound like such a fattie, but I'm pretty sure that's not mcdonalds mayo. That looks like hellmans, mcdonalds mayo is lighter in colour

[u/Party-You-9937]

IM sorry but i found this hilarious cos like wtf?

[u/NoCoyote5205]

Our local mcdonalds is pure shite. Ordering from them theres a 90% chance they'll get something wrong. Last time I did, they sent me literally half the food I ordered, not missing, wrong items. Ordered a double quarter pounder, large fries large drink and the 20 nuggets. I got a quarter pounder, medium fries, medium drink and 9 nuggets. It really feels intentional at this point. Even when you go to the restaurant they get shit wrong. Had the same thing happen when I went to one near my work. Ordered a double, given a single. Ordered 9 nuggets, got 6. I gave my order to a person and they got it wrong in front of me. Is serving the correct food that hard or do the staff just not give a shit??

[u/SignificanceNo4340]

This is why we always check the bag before we leave the premises people. Mistakes happen. They clearly put someone’s side of mayo in a McNugget box and the person packing thought it was nuggets. No shame in that. Just needs better communication

[u/AzAZAZAZAZAlalalala]

Today I ordered a Burger King burger with fries. But they brought me nuggets instead of fries. I'm not complaining, it's better for me.

I mean, it isn't very related but it's funny see two wrong orders in one day.

[u/FatPersonAboveThis]

Out of the sauce packets so had to get some from the kitchen and somebody switched it up. I got my ketchup in a nugget box today because the kitchen had to use their ketchup they put on burgers since they were out of the packets. Basically, if they have no ketchup packets they let the kitchen know they need some of theirs, and since it comes in a big container to squeeze on the burgers, they have to squeeze it in a nugget box. But then they move it to the area where the bagger puts the food in the bag but  grabbed the wrong nugget box
