Who Knew?
There is a nationwide shortage of tater tots.
What used to be is gone and what ought to be ought not to be so hard
Re: Who Knew?
I just ate some at a restaurant on Wednesday
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

Re: Who Knew?
The frozen kind? As far as I can tell the raw material is still readily available. Do folks not know what the “tater” in “tater tots” is in reference to?
All it takes is one wicked heart, a pile of money, and a chain of folks just doing their jobs

I got the word about the shortage from a restaurant that is know for their tots but doesn't have them on the menu now. I assume they use frozen tots and other forms of potato are still on the menu which would support that assumption.

Re: Who Knew?
Forgive my attempted joke. I just thought it was funny that there would be a tater tot shortage specifically, in the absence of a broader potato shortage. I had tots two days ago, and I know that a tot shortage is no laughing matter.beantownbubba wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 2:57 pmI've always assumed "tater" is a slang form of "potato."Mundane Mayhem wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 2:40 pmThe frozen kind?

Re: Who Knew?
It's not easy to make tots from scratch, time & labor intensive. That's why most places use frozen.
Now it's dark.

Are you offering to make tater tots, Flea? I’d try them!

I'm sure y'all will be happy and relieved to know that at least in S. FL, Buffalo Wild Wings has tots on the menu and will actually serve them if ordered. Phew!

Re: Who Knew?
Homemade tots (w/ bacon!) were on the menu and available last nite at Batch, a fine Southern restaurant in W. Palm Beach. I think we can all breathe a little easier.
