MIAMI — Burger King said Thursday that some of its restaurants began receiving new shipments of tomatoes after a food-poisoning scare forced the company to pull the produce nationwide.
The tomato shipments were expected to start Thursday to some restaurants, but company spokesman Denise Wilson said it could take weeks to restock the entire chain.
Meanwhile, McDonald’s said it would avoid serving sliced tomatoes on its sandwiches until it is able to find tomatoes that meet its food- safety and quality standards and until there are enough to supply the whole chain.
