Travis Scott Meal Is Too Popular For McDonald's To Handle
TRAVIS SCOTT MEAL
The demand for the Travis Scott Meal is causing prob- lems for McDonald’s. In an internal memo obtained by USA Today, the fast-food chain admitted the popularity of their Travis Scott collab- oration has resulted in short- ages of the ingredients featured in the $6 meal.
“We’ve created a program that’s so compelling to our customers that it’s stretching our world-class supply chain; and if demand continues at these levels, more restaurants will break supply,” the com- pany told its employees and franchises owners.
The Travis Scott Meal de- buted at McDonald’s loca- tions across the U. S. on September 8. The chain con- firmed its Cactus Jack- branded menu item has put a strain on its supplies in an of- ficial statement to USA Today.
“In fact, it’s been so lit, some of our restaurants have temporarily sold out of some of the ingredients in the meal,” the company stated. “We’re working closely with our suppliers, distributors and franchisees to resupply impacted restaurants as quickly as possible.”
Boosie Badazz’s Insta- gram troubles have inspired him to take legal action against the Facebook-owned service.
After facing more headaches on his new IG page, the Baton Rouge native claimed he’d file a discrimi- nation lawsuit with the help of his lawyer Drew Find- ling.
“I STARTED A NEW IG

Boosie’s original Insta- gram account was deleted in August. His page was deacti- vated over sexual content, which was frequently on dis- play during his livestreams.
