A Burger King restaurant manager and staff member have been sacked after a customer found the expression “Fxxx You” on the top of his meal receipt, the US chain said Friday.

The foul-mouthed exhortation appeared twice, in computer type, at the top of the receipt for a Double Whopper with cheese, onion rings and a small drink in the Burger King outlet in Sacramento, California, TV station KCRA reported.

“I looked at the receipt and it says ‘fxxx you’ on it,” said customer Francisco Perez. “It’s humiliating. All I did was place my order and I got a ‘fxxx you’ burger,” Perez he added.

In statement Burger King’s management said the franchise holder of the restaurant had sacked the manager of the franchise and the member of staff involved.
