Outrageous! Muslim Dad Furious as McDonald’s Serves Bacon in Daughter’s Filet-O-Fish Burger
McDonald’s have had to apologise to a furious father after they served his ‘horrified’ daughter a Filet-O-Fish burger containing a piece of bacon, which is strictly forbidden in Islam
A father has been left angry after his daughter was served a McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish burger containing bacon.
The girl was visiting a McDonald’s branch in Walsall and had avoided ordering pork-based items on the menu as it’s strictly forbidden within Islam.
However, despite opting for the Filet-O-Fish burger she was “horrified” to find a large piece of bacon wedged in the meal.
She had taken several bites of the burger before noticing something pink among the white fish filling.
The girl’s father told local media: “My daughter found bacon in her Filet-O-Fish burger. Due to her religious beliefs and values, we want this to be known so it doesn’t happen again.”
McDonald’s has since apologised to the father and daughter and said it was “extremely disappointed” that the incident had occurred.
A McDonald’s spokesperson said: “We’d like to apologise to the customer in question for their experience. We take order accuracy very seriously and have a number of procedures in place to avoid inaccurate orders.
“We are extremely disappointed that we fell short of these on this occasion and recognise that this is unacceptable. Our customer services team has also been in contact with the customer to offer our apologies and help find a resolution.
This is not the first time in recent days that McDonald’s have had to apologise for order contamination.
Earlier this week, another teen was shocked to find a winged insect deep fried among her garlic mayo chicken wrap.
The wrap was ordered from a different McDonalds branch, this time in Hemel Hempstead, and delivered by UberEats.
McDonald’s similarly issued an apology to the girl and her mother, who had made the order, and stated that the establishment had been given a five star hygiene rating just two months prior.
Also previously In 2020 A Muslim customer, Fida Hussain, who frequents McDonald’s in Small Heath, Birmingham for breakfast, was served a sausage McMuffin instead of a halal option, leaving him devastated after unknowingly consuming pork on December 17th. Fida has demanded an apology and compensation from McDonald’s. SBC readers have responded to the incident, and many are asking questions about how McDonald’s sources its halal meat.
There have been many incidents here of the same nature in the UK and USA.
