'Slow-Moving Disaster' - Food Crisis Increases

A 'Slow-Moving Disaster' Is Aimed Right At Us - It Will Not Be Fully Exposed Until It Is Too Late As The Food Crisis Increases Exponentially And Expected To Intensify To The Nth Degree

As recent reports explain that while the claims by the U.S. government of there being no actual food shortages, just inventory being "temporarily low before stores can restock," even though many products take weeks to restock or the selection just disappears, the truth is these shortages may just last for years, and it is doubtful that variety, selections and fully stocked shelves will ever be what they once were.

Via Mashed:

Although our nation is not currently in "shortage" mode, and despite the World Bank acknowledging as recently as today that "the outlook for global food supplies remains favorable," the fact is that food supplies remain unstable throughout the U.S. and the world as a whole. Accordingly, discussions of food shortage and insecurity could drag on for years.

The government can say what they want, use whatever terminology sounds less negative if they want, but they cannot make Americans "unsee" what they are seeing happening at their local stores.

The so-called "powers-that-be" would like to ignore the duration of the issue, so like with the rising gas prices, they are attempting to blame "Putin," and the war in Ukraine, despite the fact that the  rising food and gas prices, started long before the war in Ukraine.

With that said, it does not mean that the Ukraine/Russia war won't exacerbate the problem exponentially as items such as wheat and sunflower oils, will now be in shorter supply and/or more expensive that they already have been.

ANP has previously covered the wheat shortage and price hikes, and how to work around them by stocking up, learning how to make our own breads and pastas, so we aren't going to spend time on that and readers can click over for that information right here.
