SAN ANGELO,TX -- (Press Release) Whataburger and Cane's Chicken have pulled buns and bread in West Texas according to information from the chain restaurants this week.
Both the San-Antonio-based burger brand, Whataburger, and Raising Cane’s, issued a recall on white buns and toast on Wednesday due to “quality issues” with unnamed suppliers. Both restaurants kept their doors open while waiting for new shipments of fresh buns to arrive, offering customers bread substitutes like wheat and tortillas in the mean time.
“We voluntarily removed white buns and Texas Toast from some of our restaurants in the DFW area, East and West Texas, Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas because of a quality issue with one of our suppliers,” Whataburger said in a statement.
“At Raising Cane’s, we never sacrifice quality and because of this, our Texas restaurants are regrettably not serving our Texas toast,” the company said in a statement to TV news station KFOX. “This is not a food safety issue. Our bread delivery did not meet our high quality standards for taste and therefore we are offering customers a substitution of another side item or additional chicken finger.”
It’s unclear whether Whataburger or Raising Cane’s obtained the faulty buns from the same supplier.
