Restaurant Fails To Account For Customer's Food Allergy, Customer Doesn't Pay For Burger


Food allergies are no joke. With that being said, if a restaurant fails to make good on an order from a customer who specifically asks for certain problem ingredients to be left out, it could be viewed as fair for them to send the order back.
