Did we forget to include a particularly bad “We’re sorry” story? Let us know in the comments.

KFC calling themselves FCK was pretty cool, honestly. Not a "worst" apology by any stretch.

[sammaloo]

Only one of these stories were about the apology, just the "controversy". The Arby's commercial was gold though XD

[projectblitz]

That arby's commercial was perfect. There was no mistake there, that was pure gold.

[xavierquiles]

To be fair that “foot long” controversy would become the least of Subways worries

[dirttowater]

I literally lol’d at the Arby’s Pepsi commercial.

Don't know HOW Jared Fogle is only an honorable mention.

[cementerlife]

Subway handled the Jared incident as well as any company really could. The moment the news broke. They severed any and all ties with him

Chipotle got hate for causing diarrhea, but for Taco Bell, that’s a feature.

Sorry, but the Arby's/Pepsi apology is funny to me 😂

Imagine being so fragile that having the wrong team logo on a drinking cup upsets you. People get bent out of shape as if somebody assaulted their kid. Relax, it's just a cup. 🤣🤦‍‍

The Arby’s one made me laugh way too hard. He sounded so annoyed and it was so petty! I love it!

[BionicKraken]

I've ate Chipotle twice in my entire life and I got food poisoning both times. Once in 2017 and again in 2018. I've sworn to never eat there again lol. Was two different locations too. So I'm playing it safe and never eating there again. Food wasn't particularly amazing to risk it.

While I don't care for Arby's food. Goddammit they make good commercials. Their "apology" to Pepsi was fucking hilarious and genius.

[originalJoeKing]

The title made me think the apologies were bad, not the reason why they had to apologize.

[georgemartin]

I thought the Arby's commercials was clever and light hearted. It should be on the list of Best apologies.

Lmaooo I accidentally did the same thing as that McDonald's coffee once before. Was working graveyard at a convenience store and had the coffee pots filled with cleaner but they still turned black because of the coffee stains they were removing. A morning regular poured himself a cup and took a big sip of it and spit it everywhere. Told him he could have as much free coffee as he wanted any time I was working and he was cool with it. He started bringing a huge thermos to fill up in the morning lol

[ezekielrobinson]

Some of these aren’t even the apologies, y’all just talking about the mistake

[Muhammadwasapedo]

Here statement about KFC not keeping enough extra stock just proves how out of touch people really are with how food delivery and supply works.

[ThereseComeau]

I actually thought Arby's commercial about Pepsi was salty and hilarious af
