China’s urging for families to hoard food was prompted by massive problems with the global supply chain as a result of COVID in addition to extreme volatility in energy markets.
While the Biden administration has tried to downplay the prospect of food shortages, Butterball, one of the leading turkey producers in the U.S., warned that there could be a shortage of small turkeys this Thanksgiving.
Food shortages are also being seen at numerous schools across the U.S., while grocery shelves have been emptied of other essential items like toilet paper and diapers.
However, while Beijing is acting responsibly in telling its citizens to get prepared, the Biden administration is making light of the situation.
When the question of supply chain problems was raised during a recent White House press briefing, Jen Psaki mocked the issue.

Aldi has Butterball turkeys on sale at 87 cents a pound, but they are all big ones. Way more than the wife and I will eat. I also looked at Crest for another pie pumkin so I could make stuffed pumpin, all sold out already and they usually have them well into Decmber. I do believe there could be serious food shortages this winter. If there is, the Democrats are toast next election day.

Its called leftovers. After it’s cooked, cooled and you eat your fill pull the rest of the meat offa the bones and save for later. Put some in the fridge and the rest in the freezer. Good eats, long time.
