First World Problem – Random Covid-Era Shortages Of Favorite Grocery Items
[Buck Throckmorton]
The crisis is over – for the first time in almost two months I had Grape Nuts for breakfast today. Meanwhile, my stock of Hormel Bacon Bits continues to shrink, with none on any store shelves. The composition of my nightly salad could be facing a shakeup if Bacon Bits don’t return to the shelves soon.
Almost a year after our economy was turned upside down by economic illiterates, seemingly random grocery items still disappear from store shelves for extended periods. And then human nature kicks in – people stock up on products they use but which have gone scarce. When paper towels and toilet paper became scarce, I aggressively increased my household inventory of those products lest they become unavailable again. Which, of course, compounded the scarcity problem. I recently asked a stocker at a grocery store why Grape Nuts are so hard to come by. She said that shipments have become infrequent, and when some finally shows up, people quickly buy it in bulk. Who knows - perhaps Grape Nuts will become a post-apocalyptic currency. I finally saw two boxes on the shelf this week. With great restraint I only bought one. I know that as some of you read this, your main take-away will be “Buck eats Grape Nuts? WTH?” Well for starters, they’re wife-proof. Mrs. Throckmorton might go after my Raisin Bran in a midnight raid on the pantry, but she has no patience or interest while half-asleep in trying to make Grape-Nuts edible. In addition, I’ve liked the product since I was a child. Unlike Ace’s childhood trauma with Kaboom cereal, I wasn’t denied premium-priced cereal as a kid. We had the good stuff. The only trouble was that it was the “good stuff” for adults. Grape Nuts, Shredded Wheat, Special K. The definition of “children’s cereal” in our house was “adult cereal with lots of sugar added.” And even the sugar was often in adult form – sugar cubes - which were on hand just in case guests wanted to sweeten their coffee. I recall adding crusty old sugar cubes to my Shredded Wheat or Grape Nuts. And I liked it. To this day, I’ll argue that a milky, half-melted sugar cube is preferable to a marshmallow in cereal. By the way, whatever happened to sugar cubes? I better stock up on them too if I see some. What random product shortages (outside of paper & cleaning) are you dealing with? Thanks for letting me fill in this afternoon, but now I need to run to the store. Snow may be coming this way, so I need to run out and buy a couple gallons of milk and a dozen loaves of bread. Just to be safe. (buck.throckmorton at gmail.com)Comments

Except here in Mexifornia, pintos were almost always around. I have noticed random items gone from shelves, I can't remember the last one but it seemed really odd they'd be out of it - or there was a run on it. Like, cookie sprinkles or something. Oh yeah, for some reason's Snyder's pretzels have been an issue.

Interestingly, in the south bay area of CA, paper products are still in short supply in the average market. Some cleaning supplies, but TP and paper towels, wipes, etc. have never made a full comeback.

I feel this way too, but I just need to get out of the house sometimes, especially since Rusty died and every doggy task vanished. I have been buying extra emergency supplies: shoprite's can can sale, dried fruit, basic first aid stuff, antihistamines, vitamins, antibiotic and antifungal creams, etc. A lot of these things became hard to find when wuflu first struck, so a few more can't hurt.

At some point (hopefully) supply will catch up with demand. I had to have 1k rounds shipped to an FFL here, but even with shipping, CA sales tax and the FFL fee, it was still worth it. He also happened to have some in stock, so I bought it as well.
1k rounds seems like a lot for a day or two.
Posted by: clutch cargo - processed in a facility that may contain lead at January 17, 2021 02:13 PM (L8ADy)
It seems like there shortages on just about everything. Unless you happen to be on hand when they're stocking the shelf, you're SOL.
Also a lot of it might have to do with Walmart and Amazon online shopping. We just ordered 6 large jars of peanut butter, a couple of dozen cans of Tuna and a couple of large packs of ass wipe that we can't get in the store. It all was delivered right to our front door.

And of course, the county was coming in to her home yesterday just 45 minutes after I got her, to test everybody and give them vaccinations. I just got off the phone with the county calling for a follow-up.

One of the subtle but key catastrophes of all this. The Dark Ages abandonment of science will never be rectified. Instead, the weaponization of the state with fake science will be turned on the country via an even more devastating mode: control of all human activity thru "climate policy".

Now, it's sodas - Diet Caffeine-Free Dr Pepper, and Diet A&W root beer. I gather the canned soda shortages have to do with so many consumers not buying soda from restaurants, and the whole soda supply chain switching to home purchases, which means more cans are needed, which means the aluminum can manufacturers were caught short. Hope that shortage eases soon - pretty soon, the only soda we'll have in the house is Diet Caffeine-Free Pepsi, which is at least still available. (For now.)

I'm in the South SF Bay Area CA. All markets here have a booze section. Wine and booze. Some even have glass cases and really pricey stuff. The local Safeways have a full isle wine on one side, booze on the other, and the slightly smaller market I usually go to it's just one side of the isle, but it's the full length.

The Mexicans here would lead a revolt if the stores ran out of pork rinds. So, we must have them all. A typical lunch for the day worker is a bag of rinds, a bottle of Tapatio, and 2 cans of Bud talls.

Found Lysol Wipes a while back. Now there are a bunch of knockoffs. Packaged fish, like tilapia and others, have been going for almost half price. I can still get meat for $1.99 Can a pound...

He says it was Antifa/the left that were breaking things, but insists a lot of the more devoted Q people were also going in, some he claimed carrying zip ties, to arrest people like Pelosi. ... ---
I've heard other faithful Q people claim there was never any such instruction from Q ... the whole "Trust the Plan" thing is not about insurrection, it is more about Trump having white hats inside ... so like "Flynn will take control of military as Trump invokes Insurrection Act" ... not "storm the capitol". ...

Huh, here we have both Lawry's and McCormick seasonings by the boatload, all kinds of Italian and Mexican packets, as well as different gravies and such. Heck, they have 3-4 types of taco seasoning (I know, I was looking for just plain old taco seasoning) as well as turkey taco seasoning, fajita (beef or chicken), chili, on and on. And Kraft last I looked had several varieties of BBQ sauce. I'd bitch to the store managers - but again it might be they stopped in in a particular state or region.

Typically any of our markets have a huge refrigerated section of fresh salsas, tomato, roasted, green tomatillo, you name it. But it seems more the wine mom's buying that stuff. The day workers get whatever is cheap, and Tapatio is ubiquitous, it also doesn't go bad sitting in the sun all day. I get a fresh salsa at our farmer's market. I'm sort of tamale'd out after Christmas though.

Went to Publix the other day. Some employee was walking around with a box of masks and axed me if I needed one. I politely declined.
If they ever start pushing the issue again, I'll axe "What was the vaccine for?" There is not now nor was there ever a good reason for healthy people to wear a mask in pub-lick unless they had symptoms and had to be out and about.

I'm not angry at them, they're just garden variety loony's. I'm more sad for the pain they're going to feel when reality slaps them in the face next week.
They remind me of a sad paragraph I read once about the fall of Byzantium. As the Turks swarmed into the city, a group of Greeks fled to a church, to pray for an angel to rescue them. No angel came, only the enemy, and soon they were all chained together and led off into slavery.

Ah yes, that most choice example of regulatory capture that is the liquor lobby. Normally I come down squarely on the side of support your local business, but given the circumstances it pleases me greatly that Total Wine is obliterating the competition in every market they move into. For those unfamiliar, their business model is like if Walmart (big selection, low prices) and your local wine club (staff knowledge, customer education) had a baby. And that baby was then raised by a pack of psychotic pitbull lawyers who never back down from a legal challenge, ever.

Sea Bass farm tanks get dirty with fish shit. They put Talapia in the tanks to clean up the shit. I don't know what cleans up talapia shit, but they sell the fish as some exotic catch of the day.

Our CVS has a medium sized booze section, not as big as in some others. I think all the drug stores around me have booze sections, certainly. CA is anything but a dry state, that's for sure. I remember hating Oregon when I went to college there, turned 21 and find out you practically have to give a DNA sample to buy a bottle of hooch. For above retail.

I know that, really. But it is farm-raised fish, so the quality varies, based on the standards adhered to by the fish farmers. I would not trust tilapia from China, or elsewhere in Asia, except perhaps Japan. But you can probably buy wild-caught fish for little more than farmed fish from a high-trust source.

I wonder why if that has the low protein content? I check the labels and tilapia would have about 8 grams per serving, and the sole would have about 24 grams.
Costco Kirkland canned chicken is also great...especially for body builders. 50 g of protein a can.

Back when I was getting regular kidney stones, a "pleasant" side effect was reflexive vomiting of anything in the stomach for exactly 24 hours from onset of first symptoms. One time I miscounted the hours and had a bowl of Grape Nuts.
10 minutes after I was in the bathroom and it was like I was a toothpaste tube being squeezed - a column of milky grape nut stuff coming up. Strangest feeling ever.

Yeah, late to the party, but I know of several people "stocking up" for that reason, and I have noticed the stores looking closer and closer to early pandemic days with shortages all over the place.
It's very annoying.
Biden can say whatever he wants, but the actual policies aren't going to change in any meaningful way. For states that want to lock down, they will, for states that don't, they just won't enforce whatever rule Biden puts out there.

We're not afraid of salt or anything; we just like the taste better. To us the low sodium variety allows more of the smokiness to come through.

The brick-and-mortar stores I frequented are gone or going out of business. This weekend I bought going-out-of-business clothes and measured for a DIY headboard for the guestroom.
Amazon is a poor substitute because prices are higher (ergo higher sales tax), offsetting any free shipping. But one of my nephews scored a real deal last week: he ordered a new bed for his new house. It arrived with broken legs. Amazon refunded his money - and told him NOT TO SHIP IT BACK. He bought legs at Home Depot, stained them to match, and now he has a new FREE bed.

Now, it's sodas - Diet Caffeine-Free Dr Pepper, and Diet A&W root beer. I gather the canned soda shortages have to do with so many consumers not buying soda from restaurants, and the whole soda supply chain switching to home purchases, which means more cans are needed, which means the aluminum can manufacturers were caught short. Hope that shortage eases soon - pretty soon, the only soda we'll have in the house is Diet Caffeine-Free Pepsi, which is at least still available. (For now.)
Posted by: Pat* at January 17, 2021 02:21 PM (2pX/F)
No caffeine free Diet Pepsi/Dr Pepper around these parts. Every so often a 2 liter bottle shows up, but that's about it.
I think it's less a can shortage and more a we are going to put the most popular brands on the shelf while we are selling a ton of it in stores since I've noticed that the store brands still have all their flavors going.

Emmie, I agree on the low salt thing. Whole Foods occasionally has a premium bacon that's super low in sodium (80 mgs?). It was almost healthy! When Dorkie Dork (my sweet, runtie maine coon) was in hospice, I gave her a little bit (even though she had kidney disease) once in awhile because she *loved* bacon and it really seemed to improve her mood by just having enough to taste it.

I briefly lived in a northeastern state that gets snow, but not a crazy amount. Way less snow then I was used to.
Any time they predicted snow (which was, you know, not an uncommon occurrence), the grocery stores would run out of milk and bread. I have no fucking idea why people hear it's going to snow and think they need to buy prison rations, but I always found it funny. Like -- if you're worried about losing power or being stuck at home, what's your plan here? Put the milk in the snow, and eat white bride by the slice like a cave man to ward off starvation?

I haven'r shopped it but one store caters to restaurants and has large quantity stuff. Might but a few bulk things. And I did a Petco order this last week. Lots easier on me to bring it in from outside the door than to move it to the car then into the house.

I don't think we have to worry about that in the US.

It would be a disaster in my rural-ish area, too. Everyone and their grandmother throws together a fund-raising spaghetti dinner, rummage sale, or Mother's Day flower sale for school sports or a family in need. Not to mention the cash transactions for raking, snow-shoveling, and firewood.

Thank you. With your help we can issue a handy checklist at our next Pragmatist meeting.
Per the last thread, 11 years ago a local group of conservatives got organized, put on a Constitution Bee, and that 501 (c) 3 board supplied 5 people to run for local office.
4 people were elected. One of them was turned to the dark side by pressure from the local commie newspaper, the President of Kansas State University, and the local Soros group.
I am the last in office. We lost a great guy when he was targeted as a County Commissioner. Lost his primary.

I use diamond "stones", coarse and fine. and a ceramic rod in place of a steel rod.
Son got me one of those micro belt sander type sharpeners 5 yrs or so ago. OK, except:
1. Takes more care than a stone not to mess things up. It likes to round over the point.
2. Takes longer than a coarse stone if you need to grind to redo the edge. Drag it out, set up, etc. Overkill for just honing.

Had the same problem the week after New Year's. Had to go to three different stores to find any green chilis of any kind, any brand. First two stores were cleared out, completely.
Finally found some (original Hatch brand, fuck yeah!), so I grabbed three cans (4 ouncers). Will probably last me a couple of months.
