I suppose your area is special. The stores in my area have lots of empty shelves. Sure, some of them are in the frozen food, but most of the empty shelves are regular groceries.
Quarts of milk have been short or out every time we've gone to the store for months now. I like to get quarts in paper cartons, because I don't go through milk very fast, and the milk lasts a lot longer in paper cartons. Just look at the date codes on paper versus plastic cartons at the store.
Beef hasn't been on shortage here, because they jacked up the price so much that most people can't afford to buy it. They've switched to pork and chicken, which has caused them to go on shortage.
Everyone needs to stock up on foods that will last a long time.
Yep, TJs & Aldi fine around me. I'd like more people to comment with their geographic area. I don't doubt there are shortages but wonder on the mechanics of it. Would bet they are near the end of the distribution & producer lines so transportation probems magnify it.

Apparently so, northeast US.
Same here. Trader Joe's had a couple of items MIA but otherwise grocery stores have been fine around me too.

If you have a Dollar General near you, try there for the quarts of milk. Shelf stable, in the aisle with canned foods and coconut milk.
I live in the US. Of course there's a Dollar General near me. :)
Actually, I think there are three or four of them around here. They're popping up everywhere.
I'll have to check out that milk.
