McDonald’s Japan announced that sales of the Zaku-Zaku Juicy Mac series and Zaku-Zaku Juicy Momo Chicken will be temporarily suspended from 13 November, with sales expected to resume by the end of November. The limited-time Cheese Cheese Teriyaki Chicken Juicy Mac, which is available during the same period, will end sales earlier than scheduled.
McDonald’s Japan announced that nationwide sales of the chicken burger Zaku-Zaku Juicy Mac series and the side item Zaku-Zaku Juicy Momo Chicken will be suspended from 13 November. Sales are expected to resume by the end of November, and an announcement will be posted on the company’s website and elsewhere once preparations are complete.
The suspension is attributed to difficulties securing sufficient inventory of patties made with thigh meat. Chicken McNuggets and McChicken, which are not among the chicken products subject to the suspension, will remain on sale as usual.
The limited-time Cheese Cheese Teriyaki Chicken Juicy Mac is scheduled to end sales earlier than originally planned. The date for any resumption of sales has not yet been determined.
Announcements regarding the temporary suspension will be made through the company’s website and other channels, with further guidance expected once the resumption date has been finalized.
