You know, it’s funny you should say that. Years ago, when I was a hot-tempered, out-of-control teenager, I did something similar to that at taco bell. They put cheese on my bean burritos after I specifically told them not to. I pulled out of the drive-thru, and checked them in the parking lot. Upon seeing there was cheese on them, I drove back around to the window and flung it in the face of the guy at the window when he opened it to see what was wrong. Needless to say, I drove off before I could see a reaction.
Thank God I’ve learned more self-control. . . 
Just to clarify, I wasn’t being sympathetic but rather just offering a possible explanation.
I would not be surprised if you could finagle some free meals out of this:

But what would be the point? They’d just have more cheese on them.
Stupid Wendy’s.
They’d be practice meals, at which Alias could try all our helpful suggestions!
Daniel
You anti-American - Support our cheese food manufacturers Damm-it!
And please don’t call that yellow stuff ‘cheese’, ‘cheese food’ an accepted term for this stuff.
Really? I thought the FDA required it to be called cheese byproduct. Isn’t it made from cheese lips and cheese assholes?
Daniel
Or you can spend your money at a place that will provide the item you order prepared as you ordered it----if you ordered a $20.00 steak to be prepared medium-rare and received it burned to a crisp would you be as forgiving?
This is appalling. I had no idea that the situation in America had deteriorated to this point.
Anyway, I read this thread and immediately called Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas) and she agreed that we can’t let this go any further. We’ve come up with a list of reforms designed to keep the crisis from getting any worse.
First, we agreed that fast-food restaurants should not be staffed with teenagers and high-school dropouts. Only nutritionists (with at least a Master’s degree) or graduates from an accredited cooking school should be allowed to prepare food.
Second, we determined that workers who are hurried by a large volume of work are the most likely to make a mistake. The solution to this is obviously to require an increased staffing level at all food service establishments. Twenty-five food-preparation workers, 5 quality-control inspectors (ISO certified, to check each order so that the customer doesn’t have to) and one Department of Agriculture QA inspector per restaurant per shift should be the bare minimum.
Thirdly, it’s obvious that paying minimum wage to fast-food workers will not attract the kind of professional that will assemble sandwiches with an accuracy approaching 100 percent. These days you can’t hire someone who knows what they’re doing for less than 35K. Legislation will address this issue.
Kay intends to introduce this legislation in the spring. My friend who teaches economics at the University of Texas at San Antonio says he doesn’t think these “100% cheese compliance” reforms will push the price of a burger much above $16.50.
It’s going to happen. You can thank me when you start getting those cheese-less burgers.
There is a Sonic here that makes your order exactly opposite of what you ask. It goes so far as to when you ask for extra ketchup, they don’t give you any at all.
The really sad part about it is, that it’s one of two fast food burger places here.
I still go there only becaus Hardee’s costs too much for those nasty burgers.
The way I see it, when you take a job, your are assigned specific tasks, in this case leaving off the cheese when asked was part of it!
Be cool, slick. It was merely, as the boilerplate said, an idle question.
I have this problem at fast food places too. I do not want cheese and I do not want mayonnaise. They are disgusting and remind me of things best left for mention in the Pit. Oh wait, this is the Pit!
I’ve found that by saying “no cheese and no mayonnaise” even for items that are not advetised to have these vile substances and by saying this phrase very slowly and saying it several times, the people behind the counter are more apt to get it right. Also, for some reason, they screw up far less frequently when I am dining in than when I am dining out.
I"ll repeat what I posted in a similar thread not too long ago.
I’m finding it increasingly difficult to just orderr a plain hamburger. Years ago I used to be able to say “plain”, and it could come plain - meat and bun, that’s all. Now I have to say something like:
“A hamburger, plain, nothing on it, no cheese, no nothing.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, just meat and bun.”
“Don’t want no tomatos or lettuce?”
“No. Plain.”
“No pickles or onions?”
“No. Plain. Nothing on it.”
“No ketchup or mustard?”
“No, I said plain!”
“But you still want cheese on it, right?”
“No, I said NO CHEESE. Plain.”
“Are you sure?”
“Are you sure?” Worse than a Windows program.
Even after exchanges like this, one in three or four times the burger will arrive with cheese. The exception - a diner a couple of miles from me, in a neighborhood with a large Orthodox Jewish population. The diner isn’t kosher, but plain is the default, and they take “no cheese” seriously.
Seriously, I’m tempted to post about this in GQ, because it seems like a recent phenomenon. Ten years ago, every fast food counter worker and waitperson understood what “plain” meant. Today, it’s not the case. I’ve had a few McDonalds managers have told me that “plain” now actually means “everything but cheese.” Why the change? Why don’t counterpeople and waitpeople know what “plain” means anymore? Burgers without cheese used to be the default; now cheeseburgers are the norm.
And when you say “No cheese” they interpret it as “Extra mayo” (or tartar sauce).
Bastards!
*Fucking cheese
- is that coagulated semen or santorum?
Maybe you need to try the word game method:
Alias: What do you get when you take the ‘gas’ out of ‘gasoline’?
Wendys: You get ‘oline’.
Alias: What do you get when you take the ‘dog’ out of ‘dogma’?
Wendy’s: You get ‘ma’.
Alias: And what do you get when you take the ‘fuck’ out of ‘cheese’?
Wendy’s: There’s no ‘fuck’ in ‘cheese’.
Alias: That’s right! And that’s how I want my burger-with no fuck in cheese!!!
Say it like G/Sgt. Hartman would, and they’ll remember you. 
Hello soul mate! I also do not want cheese and mayonnaise. They seem to come on every sandwich though. Either one on a burger is a deal breaker. I say the exact same thing, “No cheese, no mayo”, slowly and clearly.
Peel the cheese off? Not likely. The taste is all melted in… the appeal of the cheeseburger, to those who enjoy it. I don’t like the taste, so I try to get it without. To the amazement of many fast food workers/waitresses/waiters/people listening.
Leave the good senator out of this. He’s only concerned about screwing canines. His position on screwing sandwiches is unclear.
At the McDonalds in my town, I like to get a breakfast sandwich once in awhile… specifically a “Sausage Biscuit with Egg”. About 25% of the time, they screw it up and it will either be a Sausage McMuffin or it will be a Sausage Biscuit with egg WITH cheese on it. Due to the frequency of them screwing up such a simple order (especially when I order it by number off of their breakfast menu), as soon as I am handed my bag of food, I open it and check my sandwich right there at the window. I’ve gotten so good at doing this that it doesn’t even take 10 seconds, but it saves me from having to park my car and walk in to fix my order.
Do Jewish people not eat cheese? Seriously, I’m asking. I have several Jewish friends and I’ve never heard of that prohibition. I don’t recall ever having seen any of them eat cheese, but I wouldn’t notice one way or the other.
