> McDonald’s has a Quarter Pounder with Cheese on the menu, but no Quarter Pounder. So I have to order a “Quarter Pounder with Cheese WITHOUT CHEESE.”

I had completely forgotten about that. But then I special order everything at McDonald’s so I am used to it being a difficult process. (For fun watch the confusion when you order one Big Mac with no Mac sauce and one Big Mac with extra Mac sauce. :)). I rarely order Quarter Pounders but when I do I usually say, “Quarter Pounder with no cheese, please” to avoid the “…with cheese, without cheese” sentence structure. 🙂

For real fun ask for fries with no salt, then ask for salt packets.

Burger King sez, “Have it your way!”

Try ordering a Whopper, hold the sesame seeds.
