12 Signs that food shortages are already here

My local Wal-Mart was completely out of any uncooked pasta, everything else seemed fine, but the prices for beef pork and chicken are crazy right now. I have switched to turkey bacon (probably better for me anyway) due to the fact that I can buy 3 packs for the price of the cheap brand bacon..

Location: ArkLaTex area.

I cant find Miller lite anywhere. The world is def fucked. Hahaha

HEB in Katy Texas had absolutely no frozen potato products in the freezer section.

Just shopped tonight... Picking up various items for the family.

You know, Eggs, Milk, Beef, Honey Nut Cheerios and such.

On my list was Potatoes ( Specifically, Breakfast potatoes. In addition was white potatoes and Russets.)

I have to tell you... In the breakfast potato section their were Potatoes O'Brien, There were Skillet Potatoes, There were those little "hockey puck" potatoes, which are nice but, full of oils and such.

There were NO shortages. In-Fact, They had Meats a-plenty.
(Chuck Roast, AKA Pot Roast was 3.99 a pound, so I picked up 8 lbs. New York Steaks were 7.99 a pound, so I picked up 5 lbs of those as well)

What a world.

SE Va - right before a winter storm—

No BACON at the store today!

Thankfully, i’ve a bunch in the freezer!

And just under $10 per rib eye.

theres plenty of food. But the bankers incharge of the shipping boats are purposefully not delivering the food to create a fake food shortage. Its just a shipping issue.

Either way, grow your own food. You can grow you own salads and veggies in a "Green tower" look it up on youtube.

Thats good man. Glad that where you're at is well stocked. Same for where I'm at. However I have a good friend up in Illinois that emailed me writing how crazy the grocery stores are with running out of basic staples.

It's hot or miss right now for people in places.

We'll see if these shortages pan out the way everyone has been aluding. I've prepared and so has a few of my employees and family.

Mlst people I know are still living off grubhub or eating out all the time and don't have anything beyond a few meals worth of preps in their pantry.

To each theor own, one thing I can't argue is that soon the past two years of bad crop yields will come home to roost.

After hearing rumors and literally seeing the aisles of the supermarket drying up, I ordered survival food. It arrived. Expensively I might add. The fact that it arrived so quickly tells me how manufactured this crisis is. Unload the damn boats. I've got mac n cheese for a lifetime. I'm moving or I wouldn't have posted this.

It's political extortion for not play along with their 'new world order' bullshit.

My local grocery store was out of pasta too. Alabama.

And we just ran out of Meatloaf.

'It was long ago and far away, and it was so much better than it is today.'

(R.I.P. Meatloaf)

Here in East Tennessee turkey bacon for 12 ounces is $2.85 and 12 ounces of regular bacon $3.58. Only $.73 difference

A food shortage amidst an obesity epidemic isn't necessarily a bad thing.

We will survive.

My oldest Son works in the produce department of a chain grocery in the Mid Atlantic. He comes home and tells us how the produce manager is having them spread what few items they get in just to give the appearance of being full. When that no longer works they apparently put up signs they have in the back for when an item is recalled simply because they are tired of answering the numerous questions about what is going on and why there are such limited supplies.

My Wife shops for us at that same store and she confirms it is not just the produce department as shelves all over the store are empty and the only thing they seem to have in any sort of abundance is bottled water.

Apparently only one truck a day is arriving now and it is only half full at best. Have gone to other stores in the area and they look about the same with notably barren shelves and more displays set up than usual trying to just give the appearance of a full store.


What is worse is that my Son's employer is now getting very particular about how many hours people work when they used to practically beg people to work overtime and they have started to cut hours of some of the newer employees. Grocery stores typically run on a thin profit margin and with nothing to sell they will not be able to afford to pay a bunch of people to just stand around or move displays back and forth for much longer.

lol you are sorted regardless!

Any idea how long the Mac and Cheese that comes with the cheese squeeze packs would last? All you need for those is to be able to cook the pasta, you don't need milk. I add a pat of butter for taste. That stuff is pretty good, the cracker barrel brand is good. If you had freeze dried meat you could add it.

Bacon yesterday at Piggly Wiggly. 3.50 a pack for the cheap stuff. That's down 75 cents from a few weeks ago. OMG it was better than the stuff from Whole F.

They forgot Turkey is a wild game that you can hunt for it. Since when is it inferior? I used to go to a place that bakes a fresh turkey every day for sliced breast.

Bake a small turkey and use it all up for soup, sandwiches, homemade frozen dinners. Yummy!

All the sort of stuff that goes into making MREs, eh?

I deliver for a small producer of a dairy product to over 50 farmers markets, Whole Foods, employee-owned grocery stores, and fine restaurants in two states.

No food shortage in this market. The local farmers, dairies, ranchers, etc. have room to grow. But they need more of you to opt out of the corporate food chain that is breaking down.

Yes, you may pay a little more, but you are getting far superior food. One can argue we are far cheaper in the long run when you factor in medical expenses that rack up after years of eating garbage.

Natural news is always fear mongering, saying we were going to die from covid and that Trump would be reinstated. I always take what they say and know it's false. Everywhere has just has multiple snowstorms, like VA, and they always empty their stores before hand.

Stop right there!

"theres plenty of food. But the bankers incharge of the shipping boats are purposefully not delivering the food to create a fake food shortage. Its just a shipping issue."

LOL!

Besides spices, coffee, fruits and vegetables out of season, what can't America provide for itself?

What's breaking down is global homo lowest cost feudalism.

American consumers need to shed the dollar store mentality. Remember, quality over quantity always wins.

A dozen news sites daily, I don't agree with half of the shit on any of them. Natural News has a higher percentage of accurate articles than any site out there. Stop feeding on the shill drivel....have a nice steak or something!!!

Go to Benton's and get the real thing!

it does not need refrigeration either. Got lots stored.
