I understand you can make a mimosa with grapefruit juice instead of orange…..
I went to my local Krogers today....the only empty shelves was the orange juice in the refrigerator section...not a one...when I first got there I saw people with 4 and more orange juice bottles in their carts..I remarked to Mike there must be a run on oj...sure enough there was.
A year ago, we were promised that the Biden regime would be leading us into a new golden era of prosperity. Obviously, that has not happened. Instead, we are dealing with bare store shelves and painfully high prices from coast to coast. Many are comparing this crisis to the Jimmy Carter era of the 1970s, but we didn’t have persistent shortages for months on end back then. At this point, nobody can deny what is happening. Even the Washington Post is admitting that “social media is swamped with pictures of empty grocery shelves”. The Biden administration promised to resolve our supply chain problems, but they just keep getting worse. When Fox News asked one grocery shopper about the empty shelves, he delivered a chilling response that many of us will not forget any time soon: “It’s like a Soviet store during 1981. It’s horrible.”Prior to the pandemic, many Americans believed that it was impossible for something like this to ever happen in the United States of America.But it is happening.Another shopper that was interviewed by Fox News actually used the word “starving” in his response…
I'll have to take a look this weekend when I go grocery shopping. Last weekend, I don't recall seeing any empty shelves at my Stop & Shop on L.I.

Biden Admin is discussing bringing back Ration Books. Talks include reviving the US government’s Office of Price Administration.Satire...or is it?
Produce has been hit or miss. No carrots, weary-looking green beans and broccoli, and very expensive apples.
went shopping today for grocery's. Everything was well stocked. Not seeing a problem here in hicksville fl.
The problems are happening in the COVID restriction-happy big cities (LA, NYC and DC), where they've driven most everybody out of the restaurants, so more people are switching to prepare-at-home meals and discovering they are better quality. As a result, restaurants are stuck with rotting inventory while grocers go begging.We live in a Smallville area too, and we are not seeing it, although we did see the toilet paper shortages in 2020.
"What a stupid son-of-a-bitch," Biden is heard muttering after a reporter asks a question about inflation just before the microphone is cut off.https://twitter.com/i/status/1485740993106173953
Same here. Some of the frozen food areas are sparse, but not overly unusual
Since we've always prepared our own meals, we don't provide much demand for the frozen stuff (except meat, and we have a large freezer stuffed with Omaha Steaks and fish). We only get concerned when the fresh produce disappears, and we're not seeing that yet.
At this point I would not unquestioningly simply put it down to satire.I'm still waiting for the calls for Nixonian price controls to ramp up.
