manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Due to a shortage in key ingredients, a wide range of McDonald's burgers are being subject to 'rationing' in some branches. This is mainly due to the fast-food giant experiencing a shortage of tomatoes.

It affects the Big Tasty and the Big Tasty with Bacon which is being served with one slice of tomato rather than the regular two.

A McDonald’s spokesperson said: “We are currently experiencing a shortage in our supply of tomatoes. As a result, the Big Tasty and the Big Tasty with Bacon are being served with one slice of tomato rather than two.

We apologise for any inconvenience, and thank our customers for their patience." Read more: The Salford burger bar that's been named among the best in the UK It comes after the launch of the Big Tasty as a limited edition item which only came out earlier this month.
