KFC swaps lettuce for cabbage as food crisis hits Australia

Published

Fast-food giant KFC has been forced to put cabbage in its burgers and wraps, as the global food crisis takes hold

KFC’s Australian operations are struggling with a shortage of lettuce, which has forced the company to use cabbage in its products.

It’s believed the new filling will be a mixture of lettuce and cabbage after floods destroyed lettuce crops across the east coast of Australia.

“Due to the recent floods in NSW and QLD we’re currently experiencing a lettuce shortage. So, we’re using a lettuce and cabbage blend on all products containing lettuce until further notice.”

Some social media users have posted photos of lettuces costing over three times the usual price.

Meanwhile, other fast-food chains have also been hit by the global food crisis. Earlier this year, McDonald’s experienced a shortage of chips in some of its Asian stores.

KFC Australia says the blend will be on all products containing lettuce until further notice.

But customers can still customise their orders to remove the ingredients, if they wish.

“If that’s not your bag, simply click ‘Customise’ on your chosen product and remove Lettuce from the Recipe,” the company says.

Tinder, primarily known as a dating app, is now being repurposed by Chinese youth as a job-searching tool. Users are leveraging the platform’s network and communication features to connect with potential employers and explore career opportunities.
