Normal or not, they are usually drunk or stoned, or both, 'cause that's the only time it doesn't taste like fecal matter.

No, was the reply we only do set meals.

Strictly for the purposes of research, I went into MacDonalds to investigate. A Medium Cheeseburger Meal, including chips and a drink, is 3.89. A single cheeseburger is £1.39, and medium chips are 99p.
So you could have got what you wanted, ie cheeseburger and 2 portions of chips, for £3.37, thus saving 52p.

Perhaps thats why they wouldn't tell me? Rather sell me a 'meal' than inform me I have a choice.

That will make no difference to choice.
I didn't get to choose who would get a medal.
and
I certainly wouldn't have chosen yellow for the medal ribbon if I did have a choice.
