On a hot summer day I ordered an ice cream cone at a random McDonald's in Vienna, and when it didn't look as enticing as the picture, I expressed a child like disappointment. They immediately took it back and made me another one that looked like the picture. That made it taste even better.

On the other hand, also in Vienna, in winter I ordered a bagel and asked if they could toast it for me. The lady responded in a strong Russian accent "Das ist ein kalt produkt!" No amount of persuasion or rationalizing could get her to put the f'ing bagel in the f'ing toaster right behind her. ;-)
