Earlier this month, McDonald’s Japan announced it was resuming sales of medium and large-size orders of French fries. Now, Japan-founded Mos Burger has had to come out with some sad news for fry lovers.
On February 9, just two days after McDonald’s resumed regular fry sales, Mos announced that as of Feb 10 it was suspending sales of both small and large-size French fry side orders. Since Mos doesn’t offer a regular-size, this means you can’t order any French fry side orders whatsoever.
The reason for the decision is the troubled supply lines and a lack of potatoes. On its website, Mos says it imports the potatoes used in its fries from Canada and the US. The company added that ongoing complications from the pandemic, as well as inclement weather, are creating the problems it is currently dealing with. These were the same issues McDonald’s was grappling with, but apparently Mos began to feel the effects later and/or has been less speedy in sorting out a solution.
