HOUSTON — A Houston man is suing Whataburger for nearly $1 million after he says his burger had onions on it.

Turns out he had asked for a no-onions order.

On July 24, 2024, Demery Ardell Wilson had an allergic reaction after eating a burger that had onions on it at Whataburger, court documents say. He alleges that he requested the fast-food chain to take them off before serving him the burger.

    I felt the same way about the “charged” caffeine lemonade that killed that girl a while back. Regardless of whether it was correctly signed or not, why are people ingesting food and drink they can’t verify won’t fuck them up?

      Indeed. Self-reliance is the key here. Don’t expect a money-making business to have your best interests in mind, especially the big players with billions of customers worldwide.

      To reference Emerson a 2nd time: The first wealth is health. You alone are responsible for that.
