Burger King in India has taken tomatoes off the menu due to food inflation, per Reuters.
Tomatoes prices have shot up drastically due to India's food inflation, which is at its highest since January 2020.
"Even tomatoes need a vacation... we are unable to add tomatoes to our food," signs posted outside these two outlets said, per Reuters.
Following McDonald's, Subway in India also dropped tomatoes from its menu that same month, the Times of India reported.
Like McDonald's, notices outside a few Subway outlets in New Delhi attributed the unavailability of tomatoes due to quality issues.
