Man gets cheese, sues McDonald's

McDonald's logoDoesn't this guy know that it's Burger King where you can "have it your way?"

A man in South Carolina has sued McDonald's after going into one of the establishments and ordering two hamburgers without cheese. Well, he got cheese on them, and it turns out he's allergic to cheese. He's suing for $10 million.

Now, the guy says he almost died (his medical bills were $700, which McDonald's said they would pay but they were turned down), and he's suing because of the reaction he had to the cheese and because his family "risked their lives" to rush him to the emergency room.

If you're wondering why he didn't see the cheese before he bit into the hamburger is because he ate it in a darkened room.
