Oh Pickle how i loathe thee . . .

Ever since i was a kid ive had a thing against MacDonalds burgers. Its a flawless argument ive had, the pickle should be a request item and not on every burger. A majority of people take the pickle off the burger before eating it and MacDonalds even released a TV ad showing people taking the burger, removing the pickle and throwing it on the MacDonalds window (The pickle not the burger!)

Today however i found out exactly WHY they do indeed place a pickle on each burger.

The Food Standards Of Australia Board basicaly told the corporates at Mac D's that they were classifying the burgers as "confectionary" due to the high salt, sugar and fat content. Mac D's asked if it could be classified as "Food" if 2 vegetables are on it and they got a yes answer, hence why we have lettuce and a pickle on each burger.

BAN THEM!
