"This is really too much"... Controversy over 'Sungkyunkwan University Hamburger' with Whole Lettuce Included

"Serious Issue of Bold Franchise Business Practices on Campus"

There is controversy over a burger served with whole, uncut iceberg lettuce at a hamburger franchise store on the campus of Sungkyunkwan University.

On the 18th, an anonymous post titled "Isn't this really too much? It's not boneless chicken with bread and lettuce salad" was uploaded along with a photo on the Sungkyunkwan University Humanities Campus free bulletin board.

The photo shows a chicken patty with whole, uncut iceberg lettuce inside the burger bun. In the comments, students expressed concerns that the lettuce might not have been washed or properly prepared.

The anonymous poster criticized, "Since the iceberg lettuce is not sliced and is put in whole, it would be better to call it a whole iceberg lettuce burger."

This franchise's issues have not been limited to whole iceberg lettuce. The poster said, "I often use the hamburger franchise store in the Business Administration Building, but it’s really frustrating how they operate as if they own the place because it’s a special store," and complained, "Even if I ask to remove one ingredient like pickles or onions, they are still plainly included."

They added, "At least the drinks should be kept in the refrigerator and taken out when ordered, but they just leave them out, and when I tried to change the side menu, they said only Cajun fries are available."

Since the store is located on campus with a secured customer base of faculty and students, the implication is that they are running a brazen business by excluding even the services that other stores naturally provide.

The poster questioned, "Is there any reason to pay the same price and receive such a product?" and said they contacted the store’s headquarters to report this behavior, but "the headquarters said they would reply by email, but there has been no response yet."
