No pork in the pork burger! "Famous" brand scurries to satisfy boy's hunger after expensive meat claim

Picture: Naew Na

 

Thai netizens were laughing in droves after a young Udon Thani boy posted on Facebook how he ordered a pork burger but got only the bun and a bit of white sauce.

 

There was not a burger in sight in the "Samurai Burger".

 

It seemed he was unlucky on the 13th or was this because pork is so expensive right now?

 

On hearing the news the company who sent the burger-less burger reacted quickly.

 

They sent a double burger replacement with BBQ fries and two drinks to ensure the little guy didn't go hungry.

 

All was resolved to the customer's satisfaction. 

 

It appears that Naew Na did not name the company because of Thailand's strict defamation laws.

 

We'll leave you to guess who they might have been who made the mistake on this occasion.

It's hard to imagine the kind of emty headedness required to construct a burger and forget to put the main ingredient in.

Do you actually believe that a person stands there all Day plopping a Burger in between the Bread and sloppy Sauce .

Knowing what goes into those meat patties I think he was given the healthy option by a caring employee who should be rewarded for their public mindedness.....:licklips:

So the company acted as they should, gave excellent customer service after an error, but the law prevents anyone from naming the company. Yet another example of living in the lunatic asylum that is Thailand.

"but the law prevents anyone from naming the company."  If someone says that he ordered a porkburgher, from a certain company, but there was no pork in it, how is that defamation? Can someone please explain?

In that case, no one has critisised or defamed anyone, just stating what happened.

They were just clowning around. The Hamburglar returns. 

That bag looks like the bag that the burgers I ate last year in Thailand were in.
I needed something besides Thai food to eat and because of health issues, I only went across the multi lane roadway to the mall across from the apartment building I was in (not the wuhan virus health issues). 
I was surprised at how good the burgers tasted.  I kept thinking, did they change something and now they taste better?
On returning to America, I went to the same company burger place and ordered the the same burger that I ate in Thailand.  Tasted terrible like I remembered they did.
Makes me wonder, why the burger tasted better in Thailand than it does in the country that the burger store came from.
