Bloomberg News reported Monday that a supply problem has halted production of New York’s iconic French fries, which a local food service chain has made one of the city’s landmarks.

“The rumors are true. Due to a problem in the supply chain, we are temporarily not offering the legendary home fries,” famous restaurant chain JJ Mellon said in an Instagram post.

French fries, a staple on the menu of many local restaurants, in addition to meat, are in danger of becoming another victim of product shortages, which has already led to a shortage of “cream cheese” [creme de queijo em português]Or chicken or even containers.

Chain owner Jane O’Neill revealed to Bloomberg that a shortage of supplies from longtime potato supplier Lamb Weston caused a surprise and led to the production of their exclusive product being discontinued.

“I asked the supplier if they could create our own brand for us, where we order 70 boxes a week and each cost $241, but the answer was that we had to order $1.34 million annually,” he said, explaining that this would mean buying 50% of the Potatoes most of the day.

A few hours after the announcement on the social network, many followers suggested solutions to find alternative sources.

The official admitted that the restaurant is trying different types of potatoes during this mandatory break.

Supplier Lamb Weston did not respond to requests for a reaction.

Popular chain McDonald’s has temporarily restricted sales of french fries in Japan due to restrictions on importing potatoes from North America, while Shake Shack has heard rumors of a potato shortage but has not yet felt the effects.

“We work hard with our vendors to create redundancy and constantly check every angle to get ready in advance,” said Jay Livingston, Shake Shack’s marketing director.

On top of that, this fast food company is serving up French fries at JFK this week for passengers whose flights have been delayed or canceled.
