Because tomato prices are rising nationwide at the moment, many people are concerned. The harvest was harmed by excessive rain in some tomato-growing regions and by June's higher-than-normal temperatures, which is why prices have increased by a factor of five this year.
Although the months of June and July, when tomatoes are grown, are typically more expensive, this year's price increase has been substantial. A photo of a sign from McDonald's announcing that it will stop using tomatoes in its menu is currently going viral on social media.
SEBI-registered investment advisor Aditya Shah shared the post on Twitter. The fast-food business put out a circular with the title "Temporary Unavailability of Tomatoes" on their letterhead. It said that McDonald's is having trouble buying tomatoes, so they are "forced to serve" food without the basic ingredient.
We constantly give our all to make sure you get the best cuisine and products. "Despite our best efforts, we are unable to obtain enough tomatoes that meet our rigorous, international quality standards," the statement said. We'll have to start providing you with things without tomatoes as a result. You may be certain that we are making an effort to recover the tomatoes, according to McDonald's.
Since the post was shared, it has been seen 53,000 times. One person said, "That's tomato supremacy; onions don't stand a chance," which means that the tomato is better. A second person said, "Jokes aside, it's normal for McDonald's to stop serving tomatoes when it rains because the quality of the tomatoes isn't up to par." Wow ! Another person said, "I've not witnessed this before." One user said, "It's like they put 1 kg of tomato in one burger."
Prices for some veggies are going through the roof all over the country because of heat waves, heavy rain, and problems with the supply chain. Even though tomatoes have been in the news, the prices of cauliflower, ginger, and green chilies are hurting customers' wallets.
