But why so many food shortages now and so few back in 2021?

All while we were at the height of the far deadlier C & D strains?

#4 Yes. They could fertilize the crops with the stuff that caused the e. coli outbreak that lead to the bankruptcy of Chili's.

#5 Our store has carrots, but last week it was only 'organic' and this week it is regular, but only 2 pound bags. They have not had hams or ham steaks in at least several weeks but still have lots of other pork products, and 'reasonably' priced. They have not had much cat food selection for weeks, but have had at least something (dog food factory in town....) Beer selection is sparse but adequate. More wine than I could drink in my lifetime...

#6 Money saving tip:

If you need gas for your car or truck, you might want to fill'er up today. Looks like crude is headed back up to $85.
