A tourist from India visited a McDonaldās outlet abroad (in Malaysia, at Kuala Lumpur International Airport) and ordered what she believed to be a vegetarian burger. When the food arrived, she discovered that the burger contained beef. She was upset because, coming from India, she had dietary or cultural expectations of vegetarian options and felt the item she ordered was misrepresented.
She confronted the staff at the counter, visibly emotional. She asked why she was served meat when she had ordered vegetarian food, emphasising āIām from Indiaā and how that should have meant she didnāt receive beef. At one point she even threw the burger box on the floor before engaging with the staff.
The restaurantās staff explained that in that countryās menu, the burger she picked was not labelled as vegetarian and that they did not offer the same vegetarian-options as in India. The touristās anger and frustration stemmed largely from the mismatch between her expectationsāformed by her experiences in Indiaāand the outletās local menu and labelling.
