In 2010, Melodi Dushane became an unexpected internet sensation after her fiery reaction at a McDonald’s drive-thru in Toledo, Ohio. When told Chicken McNuggets weren’t available during breakfast hours, Melodi’s hunger turned to fury. She shouted at staff, tried to climb through the window, and even smashed the glass — all over missing nuggets. The incident was caught on camera and quickly went viral, earning her the nickname “McNugget Lady”.
Charged with vandalism, Dushane spent 60 days in jail and paid over $1,500 in damages. Her meltdown remains one of the most memorable moments in fast-food history — a cautionary (and comical) tale about how far some will go for their favourite meal.
