She did choose. Twice. The OP just decided to act as though they didn't understand her choice, and I definitely don't think they did so because they feared their fast food employer would discipline them for not making sure the driver was clear enough about her choice of happy meal toy.
No, she didn't choose
Yup, she did. Clearly. Twice.
And it wasn't a clear choise
In the context of a fast food chain offering a Hot Wheels car and a Barbie doll as possible toys, her choice was a perfectly clear choice.

Have you ever played with Barbies? Have you ever played with matchbox cars?
So, the Barbie. Got it
