CHICAGO (CBS) — With many meat processing plants closed because of workers who are sick from COVID-19, fast food chain Wendy’s is facing a shortage of fresh beef, leaving some of its restaurants with limited menus.
“It is widely known that beef suppliers across North America are currently facing production challenges. We continue to supply hamburgers to all of our restaurants, with deliveries two or three times a week, which is consistent with normal delivery schedules. However, some of our menu items may be temporarily limited at some restaurants in this current environment. We’re working diligently to minimize the impact to our customers and restaurants, and continue to work with our supplier partners to monitor this closely,” Wendy’s said in a statement on Tuesday.
