For more McDonalds related news and videos check outSpeaking to 7NEWS, Dimopoulos questioned how McDonald’s was able to procure so much supply in such a short amount of time when other businesses are struggling.
Victoria’s Blue Sea Fish Shop owner Chris Dimopoulos claimed McDonald’s was taking potatoes away from already struggling businesses for its new potato scallop item.“For me it’s more about, where are these potatoes coming from?,” he said on TikTok. Dimopoulos said the industry had just come out the other side of shortages of dim sum, cabbage and lettuce - and he is not alone.“Macca’s is bringing out a potato cake ... and they’re stealing all the bloody potatoes.
Dimopoulos’ claim was met with mixed responses, with many jumping to say they would rather support local stores than fast food chains while others said it was simply how business worked.“I would rather have your potato cake than Macca’s,” another said.
