McDonald"s: Customers Actually Sue for $5M Over Unwanted Cheese

Two McDonald’s customers are suing the fast food chain for $ 5 million


They are claiming injury. Because the double quarter pounder comes with cheese, essentially.


Do they have a point … or is this lawsuit insultingly absurd?






Cynthia Kissner and Leonard Werner don’t like cheese on their double quarter pounders.


But, to be clear, this is not a case of people complaining about being served an undesired ingredient. Or of them being poisoned or pranked.


They are seeking class action status for their lawsuit, which was filed on May 8 in Fort Lauterdale.


(Yes, these people are in Florida. The adventures of Florida Man and Florida Woman continue)


According to the contents of the lawsuit, McDonald’s previously offered four different menu options for the quarter pounder.


Two of those options apparently came without cheese by default, and cost between 30 and 90 cents less.






“At some point,” the lawsuit accuses, McDonald’s made a change to their menu.


They are no longer “separately displaying these products for purchase on menus, and currently lists the availability of Quarter Pounder with Cheese and Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese.”


Right. McDonald’s has made a number of changes to its menu over the years. It’s pretty standard to overhaul things to add new items or simplify options.


If you are one of those who doesn’t want cheese on your double quarter pounder, you can simply say “no cheese,” right?


But Kissner and Werner say that this doesn’t take care of the problem.






The issue, they say, is that the double quarter pounder’s price without cheese is too high.


“Customers have been forced, and continue to be overcharged for these products.”


How so?


“By being forced to pay for two slices of cheese, which they do not want, order, or receive, to be able to purchase their desired product.”


So it sounds like they are demanding that the price for the food product decrease when they request that cheese not be included.


And they assert that McDonald’s making this menu change is raking in the dough — unfairly.


“McDonald’s is being unjustly enriched by these practices because it receives payment for cheese it does not deliver to its customers.”






According to The Miami Herald, Kissner and Werner believe that their class action suit for $ 5 million is justified because:


They “have suffered injury as a result of their purchases because they were overcharged, and were required to pay for cheese, which is not a component of either a Quarter Pounder or a Double Quarter Pounder, that they did not want and did not receive”


McDonald’s has replied:


“We do not believe the claims in this lawsuit have legal merit.”


Their statement continues:


“The advertised Quarter Pounder burger comes with cheese. We try to accommodate our customers’ requests by allowing them to customize their orders, such as a Quarter Pounder with no cheese.”






There are many examples of real and valid lawsuits against major companies that are totally valid. Some actions by heartless corporations have ruined lives.


This … does not sound like one of them.


Remember, this is not about people being given cheese in their actual food when they did not want it. That would be different.


Is it not industry standard for almost all restaurants to keep the price for an item the same, regardless of what special requests a customer makes to remove an ingredient?


Take an ingredient off of a specialty pizza order from any restaurant — the price will stay the same. That’s how it works at every fast food restaurant.


The only thing that sets this apart is that McDonald’s once offered a dbuble quarter pounder without cheese.


We don’t know what a court will do with this, but we can say that we don’t know of any legal statute requiring a business to offer past menu items for all eternity.


Perhaps there will be a surprise twist or they’ll make a compelling case.


But so far, it sounds like this pair of Florida Persons are just embarrassing themselves.

Kristen Stewart Likens Heterosexuality to Grilled Cheese

Kristen Stewart is no longer at the center of the celebrity gossip universe, certainly not in the way she once was back when she was dating Robert Pattinson.


But the actress is likely at the center of many male fantasies, considering she’s dating a woman and … well… lots of guys like the thought of girl-on-girl action.



In a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar UK, however, Stewart says she may very well go back to dating men at some point… she hasn’t closed her legs entirely to them.


“Some people know that they like grilled cheese and they’ll eat it every day for the rest of their lives. I want to try everything,” she says by way of an interesting metaphor.


“If I have grilled cheese once I’m like, ‘That was cool, what’s next?’”


In this comparison, is Pattinson a boring old grilled cheese sandwich?


And is Stewart saying she was in the market for something more exciting and captivating after the two broke up?


Sort of, we guess. One could certainly interpret her quote to be an insult.


But we don’t think she meant it that way.



In another excerpt from the interview, Stewart – who has moved in with girlfriend Stella Maxwell – said she’s “been deeply in love with everyone I’ve dated.”


She even grew a little snippy at any suggestions to the contrary.


“Did you think I was faking it?” she asked the interviewer.


No, here at THG, we definitely did not.


Say what you want about Kristen Stewart, but she’s one of the least fake people in Hollywood.


She seems to have such trouble even pretending to be happy that she smiles only about twice per year.


“I’ve always really embraced a duality,” Stewart tells the magazine. “And really, truly, believed in it and never felt confused or struggling. I just didn’t like getting made fun of.”



Elsewhere in the Harper’s interview, Stewart confesses she was teased for being a “total tomboy” in her younger days, which “really hurt [her] feelings.”


She’s come a long way since then.


In some ways.


In other ways, she has clear memories of that painful experience and can still relate to it now; it’s not as though her life as a famous person has been criticism-free.


“I remember being in the sixth grade and [people would say] ‘Kristen looks like a man. You’re a boy’, or whatever, and I was so offended, horrified and embarrassed,” she says, adding:


“Now I look back on it and I’m like, ‘Girl, be proud of that!’



This issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK will go on sale on August 4. It will also be available as a digital edition.

Man Spits in Wife"s Face Over Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Gets Arrested

A man in Georgia has been arrested for reacting to his wife’s cooking in a very inappropriate manner.







The incident took place in Clarke County on Wednesday and it centered on 55-year old James DePaola.


More specifically, it centered on the misguided, over-the-top temper of 55-year old James DePaola.


According to the Athens-Clarke County police department, DePaola started screaming at his wife because he was displeased with the way in which she made his grilled cheese.


James asked for two slices of cheese on the sandwich; his wife used three slices of cheese on the sandwich; and this was deemed unacceptable.


James allegedly spit in his wife’s face during the dispute, causing such an uproar that the couple’s 12-year old daughter called 911.


She told an operator that her dad hit her mother and pulled the phone out of the wall


(She called for help from a cell phone.)


Once authorities arrived, DePaola admitted to pulling the phone from the wall because he said he did not want his wife to call 911 for a “stupid” reason.


(And someone who attacks another person over an extra slice of cheese knows all about stupid reasons.)


The wife, Michele DePaola, told police officers that James has a history of violent and abusive behavior toward her; it has resulted in him being arrested in the past and served with a restraining order.







Michele added that he has not been physically abusive to her in a long time, although he does often control her via criticisms, shouting and cursing.


In the case of this grilled cheese incident, Michele says her husband did NOT hit her and she was never afraid he was going to because he knows James does not want to go back to jail.


James DePaola was charged with obstruction of a 911 call and criminal trespass/damage to property.


We hope he goes back to jail.

Humble College Student Apologizes for Mac & Cheese Incident

Luke Gatti is very sorry.


Gatti – who went viral last week after going ballistic on dining hall employees at the University of Connecticut because he wanted then to serve him jalapeno bacon macaroni and cheese – is once again making news on the Internet.


But for a more positive reason this time around.


"I want to start by apologizing to all the staff involved in my incident, especially the manager, he was just doing his job," Gatti says in a YouTube video, uploaded Sunday.


"He gave me so many chances to walk away and I just didn"t listen to him, I was a complete asshole to him."


Gatti confessed that he was "very intoxicated" during the confrontation, adding that he “has some problems I am addressing, and this was a serious wake up call."


There had been talk soon afterward that Gatti was expelled as a result of his blow-up, but sources now say he remains enrolled at the University.


There will be a disciplinary process, however, that could result in some sort of sanction against the student.

Luke Gatti: Drunk Mac & Cheese Kid Expelled From UConn After Outburst Goes Viral!

Yesterday, video of a drunk idiot screaming about mac and cheese went mega viral, racking up more than 1.6 million views in its first 24 hours on YouTube.



We eventually learned that said intoxicated jackass was a 19-year-old UConn sophomore named Luke Gatti.


Today, Gatti is no longer a student, having reportedly been expelled from the university after being arrested and charged with breach of peace and criminal trespassing.



It’s kinda sad to see a teenager mess his life up with one act of drunken douchery…Or at least it would be, were it not for the fact that Gatti has a habit of throwing entitled a-hole tantrums.


Several media outlets are reporting today that Gatti was arrested twice in the same month while he was a student at the University of Massachusetts last year.


In one incident, he reportedly called the arresting officer a “f–king n–ger.”


Gatti left the school after his second arrest and somehow got accepted to UConn as a transfer student.


Now that his drunken reign of terror in Connecticut is at an end, we’re guessing he’ll be taking some time off from school – and hopefully from the sauce, as well.


For now, Gatti should probably just get a job – preferably someplace where he’s forced to serve food to unruly college students.

Drunk College Student Wants Mac & Cheese, Gets Arrested Instead

We"ve all been there. It"s late; perhaps you"ve enjoyed a few adult beverages, and some greasy, salty concoction that would probably nauseate you at any other time is suddenly your Holy Grail.


Fortunately, unlike 19-year-old Luke Gatti, most of us aren"t willing to literally fight for our colon-clogging booze-sponge treat of choice.


The problem, it seems, is that Luke walked into his school"s cafeteria area with an open container and was denied service. As you can see in the footage above, he didn"t take it well.


The man really wanted some "f–king bacon jalapeño mac and cheese" – so much so that he was willing to go to jail for it.


Due to his unthinkably douchey behavior, Gatti was arrested and charged with breach of peace and criminal trespass.


His first court date is October 15, and he may be facing expulsion from school.


Sadly, Luke never got his mac and cheese. On the bright side, the video of his heroic showdown is up there with drunk late night snack wife and pretty much any footage of Jessica Simpson as one of our favorite booze-soaked viral clips of all time.


And for that, we thank you.
