COLCHESTER, England - A man used Twitter to document his McDonald’s experience of buying a nothing burger on the restaurant chain’s automated menu.
Twitter user @Arikuyo took several pictures of buying a cheeseburger with:
- No Onion
- No Ketchup
- No Pickles
- No Cheese
- No Regular Bun
- No Beef Patty
McDonald’s charged the man 99 pence, which is about $1.27 in American dollars, for a receipt and paper bag.
His initial tweet has 64,000 retweets and 146,000 likes as of Wednesday morning.

Why didn't you just get a hamburger?

I was going to ensure the gherkin was removed and then realised I could remove every single ingredient and of course tried it

I know, I was trying to figure out how Ari ended up paying for what looked like an empty bag.

Brilliant! This is genius. It should become a mandatory "page" in the University syllabus for anyone studying software design. https://t.co/n2i4TW3BJM
