I've been posting for months about a coming coffee shortage because of droughts and freezes in Brazil who supplies 40% of the worlds coffee.

...container shortages and port congestion...

So there aren’t enough containers and there are so many containers that the ports are overloaded.
Got it.

I’m wintering in Mexico where the shelves are full. Plenty of Mexican grown coffee, especially from the states of Veracruz and Guerrero.

I haven’t been to a Caribou in a while, but Panera has gone WAY downhill.

I bought 2 more large canisters of cheap (Maxwell House) coffee tonight on sale for 5.99. I have 2 large Folgers and 5 large Maxwell House cans now. I will not be without my cheap French Roast coffee.

They’re hopeful that things will improve by the end of 2022.

Unless Gavin Newsom and the ILWU are going away by then, this seems doubtful.

The old Bush/NATFTA plan to re-route Pacific shipping through the Mexican container port of Lazaro Cardenas and then by truck into the USA through Texas is looking better and better - though it was widely reviled at the time.
