Jimmy Johns Tried to Kill Me

…sort of.

Much earlier today I stopped at Jimmy Johns to get my usual, a number thirteen without mayo and avocado with djion mustard. I admit that three customizations makes it virtually impossible to expect it to be right 100% of the time at a fast food joint. However, if they forgot to remove mayo it was just be disgusting, no harm done. No djion just means its not quite as tasty, and a little dry. However, forgetting to remove avacado is dangerous.

I am usually pretty paranoid about it so I always check my sandwich before I eat any, but today I was preoccupied by other matters. It was not until my eyes started watering and my throat caught fire did I release what was wrong. Unfortunately, I am rather allergic to avacados so just getting the spread on two bites of the sandwich made me miserable. I don’t even want to think what would happen if I tried to eat the whole thing.

As soon as I released what the issue was I returned to Jimmy Johns and explain the situation to the person I placed the order with. For a few minutes she just stood there with that “so…what do you want from me” look. Eventually they offered to remake the sandwich, which I accepted. Even on the second attempt they did not get it right, but at least they remembered to remove the avocado the second time.
