I Can't Fault The Lady That Thought A Guy Eating Ketchup Packets At McDonald's Was Homeless
Daily Mail- A mum-of-two was left ‘mortified’ when she bought a ‘homeless’ man gorging on tomato sauce a meal in McDonald’s – only to find out it was a hungry customer waiting for his order. Claire Varin, 33, was in McDonald’s in Halifax town centre when she saw an unshaven man with a rucksack sat on a nearby table with no food.
After spotting him eating ketchup directly from the sauce dispenser, Claire feared he was homeless and hungry. However her ‘random act of kindness’ backfired after she placed the meal down in front of him – as a member of staff brought over another meal and apologised to him for the wait.
Claire, from Sowerby Bridge, West Yorkshire, said: ‘I was mortified. I felt like I was going to die of embarrassment. I wanted a hole to open up underneath me. ‘I didn’t stick around to see if he ate the food I bought him too, I just ran out of the shop as quickly as I could. ‘God knows what he thought. He probably tells people about the time a crazy woman bought him a breakfast for no reason.’
Hey Claire, keep your head up girl. Because if seeing somebody eat ketchup packets at McDonald’s doesn’t scream “Homeless Person”, nothing does. And that even goes for McDonald’s ketchup, which much like their Coca Cola, tastes better than the ketchup at other fast food places probably because it’s loaded with extra sugar or some other type of McDonald’s magic.
But the point remains for any condiment or complementary food. Sugar, honey mustard, BBQ sauce. All strictly add ons to real food. Nothing more, nothing less. Hell, I think McDonald’s Sweet & Sour Sauce is the king of fast food condiments and if I saw someone eating that shit straight from the container, I would avoid eye contact at all costs and haul ass out of that Mickey D’s. Maybe even call the cops on my way out. Because that is at best homeless stuff and at worst psycho stuff.
