I know it's terrible, but yes I went into McDonalds with my husband and two brats.
I ordered the food and a diet coke for myself. The man took my order and I paid.
Whilst waiting for the food I heard someone in the queue next to me being told that there was no diet coke as the machine was broken. I spoke the person serving me and told him that it was really important that I only got diet coke as I have diabetes.
He looked at me like dirt and told me the machine wasn't broken that it had just run out and was being changed.
I took my drink and tested it.
Now you know what happened next don't you?
I went to complain not because I wanted anything but because the person who served me was so rude.
The manager was nice and very apologetic but I feel that I really wanted to moan to the person who gave me the drink as he was so dismissive.
I don't expect non diabetics to understand but I tried to explain and still got given a sugary drink.
