Restaurant Service for Customers

This is a gigantic pet peeve of mine. I went to Ikea today to parooze what they have to offer for kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All really great stuff, but one thing that annoyed me to no end was their food. Everything would have been fine with their self service Restaurant/Cafeteria deal if they wouldn't have crossed one line of mine and I am sure of other peoples'.

I got the Turkey Wrap that they offered. The ingredients that they claimed to be in the wrap were the following:
  1. Turkey
  2. Cheese
  3. Wrap (not noted, but implied by the name)
"Great!", I thought to myself, because I really didn't like anything else they had to offer to me. There was a lot of fried breaded food and a lot of Swedish meatballs.

I got my wrap, coffee and a slice of chocolate explosion cake. I sat down and bit into the Turkey wrap, the first bite was fine, the second bite was slightly different... I thought it was my imagination, so I bit into it again and this time I got a mouth full of some yellow goop I am pretty sure I was not told was going to be in my fucking wrap. There was a type of mustard in my wrap... I am pretty sure the description that was written indicated "Turkey" and "Cheese" "Wrap", not fucking "Turkey Cheese Lettuce Mustard Wrap". If I knew there was mustard in it I wouldn't have gotten it. So I was trying to scarf it down (I was starving) and trying to ignore the fact that mustard was in it, but my mind got the better of me and I started to gag. I lost my appetite on top of that because I FUCKING HATE MUSTARD. I hate ALL condiments, mustard, mayo, ketchup, salad dressing etc... they are all fucking disgusting.

Ironically I do like steak sauce (yeah yeah one of the ingredients is ketchup, shut up) and almost all BBQ Sauce of any kind.

My point is, and this is a good fucking point in my opinion, they wouldn't dare putting peanuts or peanut butter in something else without indicating it first. So why is it okay for Restaurants and the like to not indicate this. I had the same problem with a certain bakeries. I, for a long time, would never get a Cinnamon role because there would always be RAISINS in my FUCKING CINNAMON ROLE! Again it says "CINNAMON ROLE" not "CINNAMON RAISIN ROLE". I went to Panera Bread, ordered a Turkey Sandwich which was described to be: smoked turkey, lettuce and your choice of bread. They fucking put Mayo in my sandwich without ASKING, I get up and tell them I won't eat it and they say, "But it comes with mayo!" I reply, "IT ISN'T IN YOUR DESCRIPTION!" It's not fucking obvious if you don't put it in the description you fucking idiots and it is also a really good way to piss off your customers. I think Burger King learned their fucking lesson with this because they had to keep remaking sandwiches when someone said, "OMG There is Tartar Sauce on this piece of shit!" I would get the fish sandwich and like clock work they would put Tartar sauce on it which is mayonnaise + relish or some disgusting green shit, which is even more disgusting.

One of my friends tards out when people put nuts on their brownies, he will sit there and pick off every fucking walnut until they are all gone. I agree, nuts do not belong on brownies!

So take a fucking hint, if you are going to ninja in a condiment, at least try to drop a fucking hint before someone eats it and nearly throws up.
