I knew to expect a wiseass, but not this early in the thread .. LOL
Seriously though, corn derivatives are in nearly all processed foods today. A severe shortage in the normal crop output is going to impact food prices like nobody's business.
Aw, shucks. We just might have to use regular gas without ethanol for a while.
Globalist scare tactic lies. No sale. Who's side are you on? Are the Chinese paying you to promote propaganda.

First of all, Snyder is a professional catastrophist.
Second: If there was a whiff of real shortages, the prices would already be showing it. I was shopping yesterday. First time locally in a couple of weeks and I saw $3/lb rump roast in a medium-price point store when I paid $4/lb just 2 weeks ago at Aldi. My small town is always more expensive than the stores 50 miles away in the larger city. I saw (and bought) other foods for less. Keep in mind this is a holiday weekend, the meats I bought were not on advertised special and I got good prices for thick cut strip steak and spareribs, too.
I have noticed a scarcity of red leaf lettuce, though.
Potatoes are full of nutrition and have so many uses, it is a chore to list them all. They can be container grown
Third: Anyone paying out the nose for processed food could switch to unprocessed ingredients and cook from scratch. YT is full of videos for those who don’t know how.
Fourth: Really concerned? Buy now and store. Prepping isn’t just for the final SHTF. A few hundred dollars today will pay for itself if there is really a future shortage.
Fifth: Last year, the media was complaining about the lack of storage for corn. It’s always something.
