The “no worse that the flu” rhetoric by many did not help.
This is true certainly.
IMHO this should be an impetus to remind people to have 2 or 3 weeks worth of what they need/use and not just the 2 or 3 days currently encouraged.
Store what you eat, eat what you store. If you’re fortunate enough to be able to afford to eat out all the time, store what you WOULD eat if you HAD to eat and rotate anything that’s a month or 2 from expiration out to a food bank or church.
