I have a modest proposalFood shortages are coming for those that can’t afford it. Folks with money will be fine.
And if so, what are you currently doing to prepare for it?
No. The US supply will mostly be fine. Specialty items, like baby formula will be problematic here and there. Also, certain products, or things that need certain packaging may be an issue. It's hard for manufacturers to just switch packaging / containers.And if so, what are you currently doing to prepare for it?
To be honest, there is a lot of bull floating around crying wolf.
President Joe Biden said that the world will experience food shortages as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and production increases were a subject of discussions at a Group of Seven meeting on Thursday.
“It’s going to be real,” Biden said at a news conference in Brussels. “The price of the sanctions is not just imposed upon Russia. It’s imposed upon an awful lot of countries as well, including European countries and our country as well.”
Ukraine and Russia are both major producers of wheat, in particular, and Kyiv’s government has already warned that the country’s planting and harvest have been severely disrupted by the war.
Please don't bring in politics here. You could have written that same idea in a very different way to make the same point.I'm just going by what Biden has even said.
Is Biden slinging bull and crying wolf?
Just so we’re clear, you are referring to food shortages in other countries or the US? Ward was pretty clear in that the US will be fine, but the Biden comment you posted refers to “global”. So which is it here? US or global?I'm just going by what Biden has even said.

Yeah, if he's worried about the kids in Africa (like the commercials), that's a very different thing.Just so we’re clear, you are referring to food shortages in other countries or the US?
