Just curious as I’ve never been on the other side of the counter, how does this sort of thing tend to work at restaurants? Fast food and fast-casual places are where I’ve heard customers say things “pile as much lettuce on there as you’re allowed to” - is there ever a limit your supervisor instructed you for things like that?
Now obviously with up-charge items like extra meat or certain toppings I know the sizes tend to be pre-portioned to a serving utensil, but something like extra onions or tomatoes that goes uncharged - has anyone gotten into trouble for giving “too much”?
Many years ago when I worked at Burger King, we had a regular customer who would order a cheeseburger with extra extra extra onion. She was a very sweet older lady, so we always obliged. We piled two inches of onions on those burgers, easily enough for 8 normal burgers. It was weird to all of us, but she absolutely loved them.
Growing up in the 70s my great aunt used to eat half a yellow onion with dinner almost every night. She’d cut an onion in half and plunk it on her plate with whatever she had made for dinner. I saw her peel an onion and eat it like an apple once.
Iconic and embarrassing, as an Australian
If in GA USA, it’s not any yellow onions. You all have special onions that are sweet.
