In a statement on its website, the famed fast-food restaurant said it will resolve the problem as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are actively working to make adjustments to solve this issue quickly and apologize to our guests for any inconvenience,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n<p>CNN profiled the sharp burden placed on fast-food restaurants due to labor shortages in recent months, including chicken venues such as KFC, Wingstop, and others:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"16.074554294976\">\n<p><em>Fast food restaurants have been hit especially hard in recent months with both a labor shortage and supply chain issues. For example, ketchup packets have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/04\/08\/business\/ketchup-shortage-heinz\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">come in short supply<\/a> amid heightened demand. Heinz recently announced a 25% increase in production.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The fried chicken wars are putting a strain on the poultry population.

The Daily Wire\u2019s Matt Walsh <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/walsh-chick-fil-a-just-caved-to-the-rage-mob-theyre-about-to-learn-the-hard-way-that-surrendering-never-pays-off\">argued<\/a> at the time that the company\u2019s capitulation to the \u201crage mob\u201d would do little to help its bottom-line by alienating its core supporters and drawing in no new customers since leftists would boycott the business either way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe change of heart is somewhat confounding. Yes, they\u2019ve been boycotted on and off for the past seven years. Yes, LGBT activists were prone to lashing out at the restaurant\u2019s \u2018hate chicken,&#8217;\u201d he wrote. \u201cBut none of this appeared to be negatively affecting the company\u2019s bottom line. Indeed, the opposite was the case. The initial boycott in 2012 gave rise to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2012\/08\/01\/us\/chick-fil-a-appreciation\/index.html\">Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day<\/a>, where fans of the restaurant waited in lines wrapped around the block to show their support in the form of eating their delicious chicken. The enthusiasm never died. Chick-fil-A\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/boycott-backfire-new-rankings-show-chick-fil-amanda-prestigiacomo\">rose in popularity<\/a> during the intervening years, tripling its sales and becoming one of the top three restaurant chains in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis capitulation will not stop the bleeding, because there was no bleeding,\u201d he continued. \u201cNow that might change. This move is much more likely to alienate Chick-fil-A\u2019s supporters than to appease its critics. Surrendering to political correctness almost never pays off, and Chick-fil-A isn\u2019t likely to be an exception.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/walsh-chick-fil-a-just-caved-to-the-rage-mob-theyre-about-to-learn-the-hard-way-that-surrendering-never-pays-off\">WALSH: Chick-Fil-A Just Caved To The Rage Mob.
