No French fries for you! McDonald's faces potato famine


Would you like fries with that? Enjoy it while it lasts.

McDonald’s Japan has stopped serving supersized French fries because all its potatoes are stuck in the US.

McDonald’s Holdings Co (Japan) Ltd has embarked on an emergency measure of only offering small-sized French fries to customers, as a protracted labour dispute at US West Coast ports continues to create long delays in shipping.
