Guest guest Posted March 24, 2002 Report Share Posted March 24, 2002 print a copy of an article that posted that said it is possible if not... this is what Erik wrote: If You Don't Have it Your Way, Write Us Posted: March 23, 2002 It can be tricky or impossible to have it your way at some Burger Kings, at least for the moment. In the 24 hours since I posted my article supporting the BK Veggie, I’ve received about five emails from vegans who unsuccessfully tried to get their local Burger Kings to microwave their burger. On at least two of these occasions, the manager refused the request outright. And in one case, a Vegan.com reader visited five different Burger Kings in Virginia, and had his microwave request turned down every time. I’ve been forwarding these complaints to my contact at Burger King, who has promised prompt action. The problem here is that many franchises apparently missed out on the first round of instructions, which specifically require allowing a microwave option to every customer who makes the request. Over time, this problem will be rectified, as Burger King continues to contact restaurants to ensure they are all complying with the microwave policy. But, in the meantime, you can help. If you visit a Burger King, and your request for microwaving the veggieburger patty is denied, you can write Vegan.com, and I will forward your report to my contact at Burger King. Be sure to include the offending branch's address and phone number. The company has promised to take prompt action whenever they receive a report of the microwave policy being violated. I think we vegans have to cut this company a bit of slack, especially early on. They were cool enough to write this special microwave request into their company-wide regulations, and they did it specifically to make vegetarian customers happy. Over time, there is certain to be good compliance with this directive. In the meantime, send any reports of problems to Vegan.com. http://www.erikmarcus.com/pages/article.php?id=842 Movies - coverage of the 74th Academy Awards® http://movies./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
