When you order a hamburger

[N.Bailey]

No onions! No onions! No onions!

You can remove them, but you can still taste them. I can't count many times I have sent a sandwich back because I asked for it with no onions, and you guessed it...onions! And they think I am an idiot, because they just bring it back after pulling the onions off. Ummmm...if that is what I wanted, I could have saved myself the trouble of speaking the two words...No ONION!

Okay....I am done ranting...haha

I agree completely! I don't mind it so much at fast food places because the onion isn't the same. I can pick them off and there is no taste left behind, but not so when you're talking a sliver of a nasty raw onion. I feel the same way about tomatoes too. The lettuce wouldn't bother me as it wouldn't leave the taste behind, but I don't want it either. While I can remember picking onion off, I can't remember a restaurant where all this wasn't on the side. Oh well, they say the memory is the first thing to go.

I will say though that I do like vidalia onions and it's rare to find them served. I do em up at home and mince them in the food processor and they're awesome on hot dogs. I am no hot dog fan, but grilled (the hot dog, not the onion) with onions, I can do that!

You and me both. I detest onions. And if onions we on the burger at one time or another, I want a new burger.

I don't like onions because I don't like the texture - left-over taste wouldn't bother me.

BUT, went to a Mexican restaurant the other day - I HATE SOUR CREAM!!
They put sour cream on the lettuce. I sent it back and said I had asked for no sour cream. Okay, brought it back. I'm half way into the chimichanga when I realize they had just put more lettuce on top of the sour cream.

I like a grilled mushroom/onion burger with mustard
or a chile burger with raw onion and mustard
on a fast food burger mustard onion and pickles
I will eat tomatoe, lettuce or mayo on aburger but will not it ketchup on one at all.
I hate ketchup and can not eat it on anything except baked on top of meatloaf.

Before I started my diet I had to have my hamburgers with cheese ( sometimes bacon) lettuce,onions, pickle, tomato, mustard, mayo ; ketchup and the zesty onion ring sauce ( that BK gives you with your onion rings) smothered all over it!

I like Rallys( Checkers) burgers because they use the yummy purple onions

No raw onions here. I love cooked onions, but if they're raw you can forget it. I also don't like lettuce on my burger or any other sandwich. Lettuce is for salads and tacos, but not sandwiches.

On a regular burger I like tomato, ketchup or mayo, cheese, pickles. If it's a mushroom swiss burger I'd eat it plain or maybe with mayo or ketchup if it's dry.

You sound like my friend Mike! He HATES onions. We went to lunch one day and this was the conversation between him and the waiter:

Mike: Does xyz have onions in it? I don't like the taste of onions.

Waiter: Yes, but you can't taste them.

Mike: Then why do you put onions in it if you can't taste them?

Waiter: Well...they add flavor.

Mike: Yes, ONION FLAVOR!

Whenever I order a burger, I say, No lettuce, no tomatoe, no mayo, no pickle, no onion, no ketchup, Just bread, meat, cheese and mustard. Then I say, will you please repeat that.

After all that, usually they don't get it wrong. I've noticed if I say, Just cheese and mustard that the other stuff gets on there anyway.

After reading this thread I'd eat a burger with anything on it right now

When I lived in NY my burgers came w/ ketchup and pickles, just how I like them. When I moved to PA everywhere puts mayo or mustard on them.
