McDonald's Philippines has paused sales of larger portions of their fries due to the global freight crisis. The fast-food restaurant initially released advisories on their website that larger sizes of fries were not available for delivery.
McDonald's then posted an announcement on their social media accounts that they will be limiting their fries to only their regular size for now, holding off their medium, large, and BFF servings. The restaurant assured customers that they are ‘working hard to bring back all sizes very soon’.
Also feeling the weight from the potato shortage are Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Taiwan. McDonald's said potato shortages have not been a problem for stores in the United States, which stores in Asia heavily rely on for potato imports.
