So, it's not a shortage, per se..
Schreiber Foods (responsible for about 50% of the cream cheese in the US) got hit by ransomware right around Halloween and they were offline for about two weeks (fairly common timeframe).
They're still playing catch-up fulfilling their backorders, while some contracts pivoted over to other sources like Kraft, consuming what was originally destined for grocery stores.
This is not like Colonial Pipeline. This is more in line with the JBS hack- the moral of the story being when you centralize production, small ripples have big knock-on effects.
What's going on right now in the cybersecurity world is epic. What's the 4chan meme.. "If you only knew how bad it really is..."
As of this week, every commercial Incident Response firm worth a crap is turning away customers or telling people that have been hit that they can take on the incident in two weeks or more.
Notice in the article the other companies that are saying they have a shortage of cream cheese. Ask yourself, what other goods is there a shortage of that the news is not talking about?
It is, but it's pretty revealing that a globalist megacorp is admitting to supply chain shortages. I think it goes to show that the situation is so bad that even they can't hide it and are trying to do damage control.

Kraft is a globalist company

I also think Mr. Kraft isn't playing ball which is why they tried to burn him because he went to a massage parlor with a happy ending.
Ironically I think he owns the patriots NFL team too.
