We've been known to get irrationally angry over food (especially when we are without it), but this woman took it to different level. A level at which no one should ever be when it comes to fast food breakfast.

South Carolina police are currently searching for a woman who threatened to shoot up a Mount Pleasant Burger King last week. According to The Post and Courier, the woman in question was eating with her friends when she started complaining that her cinnamon roll wasn't fresh. A patron who witnessed the event said that she got really angry and started shouting after she learned there was only one cinnamon bun left. A manager reportedly tried to speak to her, but she stormed out of the Burger King before anyone could reason with her.

Allegedly, she came back later with her friends and threatened to shoot employees and other customers. According to the police report filed, she said: "I'm going to shoot down the place," and her hand was in her purse. An employee called the police, and that is when she fled the scene. The Cinnamon Crusader (as we are now calling her) has not been found or arrested yet.

In related news, Burger King is changing its slogan from "Have It Your Way" to "Be Your Way." This is not in response to this woman who took that original slogan very seriously, but it's happening nonetheless. BK says that the motto change is to remind people that "they can and should live how they want anytime. It's OK to not be perfect."

It is OK, as long as your cinnamon rolls aren't stale.
