Joining the McDLT in the great history of abbreviated McDonald's sandwiches is the CBO burger. "CBO" stands for Cheddar, Bacon, Onion, but as you can see below, they had to put an asterisk after "cheddar."

Ian: McDonald's chose to use the abbreviation "CBO" because saying the whole words took away valuable chewing time.

Ian: "CBO" is also what you say for when someone smells so bad you can see it.
Leah: If they actually abbreviated all the ingredients it would be the JDJEITKSFLNSVNLSKFJWEIIIOOHILIXXSNBXNWOQOPEIJSKJLSSSjLK.
