‘Just got home and bit into this.’
‘This is just disgusting,’ one person wrote..
Another said: ‘Hope you complain and get your money back.’
‘I would have rung them straight away or gone back to the store,’ A third wrote added.
One person even blasted the fast-food giant for potentially putting pregnant customers at risk.
A spokesperson from McDonald’s said to news.com.au the restaurant takes food safety and quality ‘very seriously’.
‘We follow strict processes and procedures to ensure the quality of our food,’ it said.
‘We are working with the restaurant to investigate this further.’
Since the post went viral, the Australian customer has yet to update their followers on what McDonald’s did to rectify the undercooked burger.
It is important that all fast-food restaurants make sure they cook their products properly, as customers have the right to delicious and safe food. The customer should always check for proper cooking before eating any product from a restaurant.
In this case, it’s a reminder of the importance of proper check-ups and food safety guidelines.
It’s also a wake-up call for customers to be more aware of how their food is prepared and cooked before taking that first bite. No one should ever have to experience a meal like this again.
The customer should always be aware of the safety standards that a restaurant is held to and demand better if their expectations aren’t met. McDonald’s should also ensure they are meeting safety standards, as it is their responsibility to provide safe food for customers. It’s important to make sure all fast food restaurants are following proper guidelines and providing customers with safe meals every time.
Otherwise, there is a risk of foodborne illnesses from bacteria and microorganisms.
Improperly cooked food can also lead to an increase in instances of food poisoning, which can have long-term health implications. Therefore, it’s critical for restaurants to take all complaints seriously and act quickly to ensure the highest safety standards are met at all times.
