New York (CNN Business)The national meat shortage has come for Wendy's. The fast food chain says some menu items are unavailable, and one analyst estimates nearly one in five of Wendy's restaurants are out of beef.
Around 1,000, or 18%, of Wendy's 5,500 US restaurants are not serving any hamburgers or other meat-based items, according to an analysis of online menus at every location conducted by financial firm Stephens. Wendy's is "more exposed" to the shortage sparked by the coronavirus pandemic because of its reliance on fresh beef compared with its competitors, the note said.

Wendy's (WEN) said some of its menu items might be "temporarily limited at some restaurants in this current environment." The company said its delivery schedule remains unchanged, but supply has been tight because beef suppliers across North America face production challenges during the pandemic.

Many meat suppliers have temporarily closed their factories because workers are falling ill from Covid-19.

The Wendy’s I went to for lunch only was allowing singles

Havent had a Wendys in about 3 years. They do make fairly good burgers.

I went yesterday to order a triple. They said no. I then ordered a double and a single, and they had no issues with that. But it was almost twice the price. So I called them out on that and they sold me the triple I asked for...

WTF.

What a country. The size of the meals some of you eat, even in a time of crisis....

A typical lunch that some of you eat would feed an African for about a week. lol Just be happy you have food like that readily available. Now would even be a good time to start eating right and losing weight, so you won't eat as much. Then maybe we can keep that stuff around a while with all the shortages instead of everyone hogging it all like they are toilet paper and towels.

That was my Keto lunch. No bun Dave's triple with cheese and bacon. no fries and water for drink. Im down 63lbs since December... I drink an atkins shake for breakfast, do a keto bowl from chipotle or a triple from wendy's for lunch and then its 4 boiled eggs for dinner. Rinse and repeat.

Than kudos. To many Americans that's an average daily lunch. Might be why 1/3ed of this country is obese, and another 1/3rd well overweight.

I've had one SINGLE cheeseburger over the past 6 weeks from a fast food place. When I drive by these places though I see cars 20+ deep on a daily basis.

Thanks Trump.

As the coronavirus pandemic forces some meatpacking plants to close, sends meat prices soaring and leaves some Wendy’s customers asking “Where’s the beef?” — President Trump on Wednesday assured Americans he was on the case.

Asked at the White House about the reports of a meat shortage at the fast food chain, the burger-loving president replied: “I’m going to call Nelson Peltz,” the New York billionaire investor and chairman of Wendy’s, adding that he’s confident the problem will go away.

stopped at a wendys the other night, we were the only car in the drive thru, and you could not order any double burgers, only singles.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

conspiracy to make as much profit as possible by forcing 2 singles instead of 1 double

Can you imagine his response if McDonalds was having a meat shortage? The economy would be put to work INSTANTLY, like it was war time.
