Well, a lady who works for a food vendor here in n.e. Alabama told me about two weeks ago that they can't get things like tortillas...and she's out of work..no other details...im a cashier at Wal-Mart,and make it a point to ask as much as I can. I talk to many truckers who also say the supply line is slowing
Quoting: Halfbreedgal 73868407 i agree, things are slowing, even though they restocked too many empty patches. there has been no hoarding for weeks yet sauce aisle almost empty, not even one ragu or prego here yesterday at publix Unfortunately for low income shoppers, I'm seeing a lot of the less expensive brands are gone. I normally shop for less processed items with higher quality ingredients, but I can afford to do so. When my husband and I were raising small kids, I could not have afforded to buy the brands/quality of ingredients that I buy now. For example, I was able to find 2 5 lbs of King Arthur Organic unbleached flour, so I bought them. Didn't even look at the price. Years ago, I wouldn't have been able to do it. The rest of the flour aisle was pretty much picked over with not many selections. Same with pasta and pasta sauces. I do not shop at Walmart so I'm not sure what selection they have in my area.
