More than likely. This happened occasionally when I worked at McD's. A couple times we ran out of seeded buns too, you have to use big mac buns and throw away the middles. I don't seem to notice the difference, myself.

hmmmm that could be. They did take a while to get me two damn cheeseburgers. I didn't notice the difference either.

They are for a better grip of the burger, so the greasy burger won't slip out of your hand.

What I hate is when you open a package of hamburger or hotdog buns and they're covered with so many extra seeds that they fall off and get all over the place. Useless.

Oh, and the point of sesame seeds is to make more sesame plants.

Something like killing all of the human population and infecting all cows with Mad Cow Disease.

sesame seeds is supposed to be very flavourful but i can't taste it on those burgers. maybe they don't cooked them enough to let the flavour come out
