FOOD Distribution Systems are BREAKING DOWN!!! (Worldwide)
Supplies Are Starting To Get Really Tight Nationwide As Food Distribution Systems Break Down

[link to endoftheamericandream.com]


All across America, store shelves are emptying and people are becoming increasingly frustrated because they can’t get their hands on needed supplies. Most Americans are blaming “hoarders” for the current mess, but it is actually much more complicated than that. Normally, Americans get a lot of their food from restaurants. In fact, during normal times 36 percent of all Americans eat at a fast food restaurant on any given day. But now that approximately 75 percent of the U.S. is under some sort of a “shelter-in-place” order and most of our restaurants have shut down, things have completely changed. Suddenly our grocery stores are being flooded with unexpected traffic, and many people are buying far more than usual in anticipation of a long pandemic. Unfortunately, our food distribution systems were not designed to handle this sort of a surge, and things are really starting to get crazy out there.


Please go to link for additional details on what is happening. and a video showing HUNDREDS of cars lined up....their destination? A food bank!

I have no way of knowing but if this was caused by folks trying to get to the food bank that would indicate a lot of panicked and or hungry folks.

B.S. I went to the store yesterday and things were beginning to return to normal. There was even some TP for sale. People are starting to calm down. I'm in Wyoming and we had a run in stores the last two weeks. Things aren't overflowing, but freezer isle is slowly filling up, milk and eggs are available, bread, etc.

yeah I don't get it, the US Produces enough food to feed all of china.

How is it even possible that we could have a food shortage

I think Supply disruptions are short term, due to hoarding

Now if we have a fucked up summer growing season we could be in serious trouble

A lot of people are thinking along the same lines:

An onslaught of orders engulfs seed companies amid coronavirus fears

In sum, there is a rush on seed buying as overnight homesteaders are either seeing the value of growing their own food or feel they are in a dystopia where their very existence depends on getting some beans to germinate. Or both.

Only 42 farms went out of business during the trade war.

and most of them were due to flooding.

Again keep in mind, the USA ships food all over the world

as long as there is no summer devastation to crops there

should be more than plenty of food.

In the Baton Rouge area, bread is still hard to come by. Where the stores do have bread, there are limits of how much you can buy.

I'm hearing from family in rural Mississippi that they cannot find yeast anywhere.

I'm not sure what to believe at this point about the potential for food shortages. I know I don't like it. My grandmother grew up during the depression She was always careful with not wasting anything. My mother internalized that and always stockpiled food.

Yes, we can call it fear mongering BUT hasn't that been the rule of the day now for the last two months? It is the FEAR that has been embedded in all of us now that has caused the run on the grocery stores in the first place BUT it's also the REALITY that our supply chains for everything have been disrupted..you simply can't deny that fact.

Truth is, none of knows where this is ultimately heading but it is worsening in magnitude every day. That is not fear mongering...just a fact.

Having trouble keeping up with demand is not the same thing as "BREAKING DOWN!!!".

Tyson foods for instance, since restaurants are toast have completely shifted/pivoted their restaurant sector procedures and efforts of supply to the grocery store sector.

We are not going to run out of food despite how many times this website repeats this. Farmers aren't going to quit farming. And outside of concrete jungle and suburban world of the cities we have a lot of farming operations taking care of this country.

A local restaurant here is offering their goods at cost. They're buying from the supplier and passing it on to the public. 50lb bags of rice, flour, meats, eggs etc.

We'll be through those supplies soon enough. We're going to see the effects of last years poor harvest sooner than we thought.

My brother works for the grocery industry in Denver, CO and he's down to receiving ~40% of his ordered loads. Warehouses are running out.
