I just received a text from my neighbor that we seem to be experiencing a flour shortage in our area (Northern CA). She said that Costco is out and the manager said he didn’t know “if or when” they will get more. I’m trying to figure out if this is a broader issue. She said she knows of at least one other store that does have some in stock right now and to grab it quick if we need some.
Anyone else experiencing this?
haven't seen a flour shortage, but I've noticed a definite change in the way things made with flour taste.
bread isn't the same, and often just crumbles. I've tried multiple brands and none of them are very good. donuts and cakes don't taste right either.
Interesting… I haven’t been buying as many products with flour in it as I’ve been making more of it myself. I wonder what is causing it to taste and feel different?
Winter wheat issues maybe? Lower protein and gluten in the the output
