The Great Onion Showdown: A Gluten-Free Burger Tale
In this epic burger saga, our gluten-free hero found themselves in a heated battle over a mere $2 worth of onions. Determined not to let the restaurant’s upcharge policy get the best of them, they stood their ground and fought for their right to a fully-loaded, gluten-free burger. Despite the raised eyebrows from their dining companion and the initial pushback from the waitstaff, our protagonist remained cool, calm, and collected throughout the ordeal. In the end, the manager relented, and the gluten-free burger was served with the hard-earned onions. But the question remains: was our hero justified in their onion uprising, or did they take things a bit too far? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this savory situation…
