McDonald’s Quarter Pounder sells out

A promotion for McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburger proved so popular that some of its outlets in the United States ran out of beef, bacon, slivered onions and lettuce.

McDonald’s said it will be limiting sales, beginning Sept. 22, under the $6 deal to orders placed via its app. The promotion runs until Oct . 4.


"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," McDonald's said in a memo to employees, owners and operators.
