The good machines (uncertain about McDonald's) let's you customize everything. Want three pickles? So it. Half mayo? Sure. No top bun? Live your life!b And it gives you ingredient listings.

And whose to say the minwage cashier even knows what's in the food? Not at all a insult, but in my area, many cashiers have English as their third/fourth language.
