Earlier, on the 20th, McDonald's stated on its website, "Due to unexpected supply chain issues, we are temporarily unable to provide French fries." As a result, set menus including French fries were not sold at stores, and customers ordering burger-only items were given a medium-sized cola instead.

At that time, McDonald's explained, "We decided to suspend the supply of the product due to concerns that some of the frozen potatoes supplied to McDonald's did not meet standards."
