Numerous Wendy’s restaurant locations across the nation have removed burgers from their menus due to the meat shortage amid coronavirus. In an unfortunate twist of fate, disappointed customers wanting to order take-out or hit the drive-thru can’t help but reference chain’s famous slogan from the ’80s and ask, “Where’s the beef?”

In response, Wendy’s put out the following statement: “As you’ve likely heard, beef suppliers across North America are currently facing production challenges. Because of this, some of our menu items may be in short supply from time to time at some restaurants in this current environment. We expect this to be temporary, and we’re working diligently to minimize the impact to our customers and restaurants.”


Just had a Wendy’s burger for lunch yesterday. Guess I did it just in time.

I’m headed to the ranch this weekend and I may end up killing a Nilgai if there’s going to be a run on the meats like toilet paper.

I'm guessing taco Bell will be fine since their meat is 50% sawdust.

There's plenty of meat. Just the processing plants aren't open to chop it up. You can easily go buy a cow or pig and butcher it.

Thread title is misleading.

Burgers have not been pulled from their menu.

The article says there may be spot shortages at some of their locations.

If nothing else, this virus will allow for the murder-filled meat industry to suffer and people can start eating healthy again.


Grow your food instead of torturing it

Yeah that's the only thing edible on that menu.

Their beef is garbage. Dumb square patties of McDonald's quality meat.

Hell, Mickey D’s just pulled the grilled chicken sandwich off their menu entirely. Still selling the fried counterpart, so it’s not a supply shortage. Pissed off this old fart after waiting in their drive thru line for 10 minutes.
