now THIS is a true disaster of epic proportions!

C’mon, man. There are no dairy farms and processing plants in NY State? Anywhere? NY is ideal climate for Holsteins. They thrive there.

I guess there is no alternative. Something drastic must be done.

Like make your own.....

Guess I’m deprived. I really don’t have a good idea what “cream cheese” is. Not a foodstuff I encounter. And barely know what bagel is. Not commonly seen out here.

“Heinz say they’ve seen a 35 per cent spike in demand for cream cheese in recent months, when grilled by the Times about the ongoing shortage.

They also site the ongoing supply chain shortage, which has seen products run out due to issues including a shortage of truck drivers, and shortages of other vital staff due to COVID vaccine mandates that many have refused to comply with.”

Cream cheese is pretty darn easy to make.

Get off your arses and do it yourself. May even be better and increase your business.

[ComputerGuy]

Psst. They have plenty in New Jersey.

[ZOOKER]

How many month's supply is prudent, given that it's a dairy product that SPOILS?
With a blaring headline, another media stampede begins. I won't bite.

For a New Yorker, this is like that scene from Airplane 2.

“Miss, is there something you’re holding back from us?”

“Yes, we’re out of coffee.”

[Clutch Martin]

Any soft cheese won’t do?

Neuf Chatel? Brie? Yogurt?

Greek Yogurt works pretty good.

This is the WRONG kind of ‘stop the spread’!

[EQAndyBuzz]

In San Antonio, couldn’t get Philly in the tub. Only packages.

[Grammy]

I was trying to find cream cheese for a dish at Thanksgiving and there was none! Total empty shelves in middle Tennessee.

Maybe, just maybe this will finally get the Libs attention to how bad it is! There are over 700,000 fewer office workers in NYC, estimated one million residents moved from NYC. So Hugh loss of bagel demand and they cannot keep up with cream cheese? People wake up!

[nevadapatriot]

The horror!

[bert]

Well, I had plenty of cream cheese on my bagel this morning. No cream cheese problem here in America

[Flaming Conservative]

Hmmm. The bagel shop in my hometown makes their own cream cheese.

[jughandle]

Instead of 1lb of cream cheese on my bagel I’m only gonna get 1/2lb now!!??

[Albion Wilde]

Nu? Invent some new schmears with Greek yogurt or ricotta as a base.

[1Old Pro]

Pusaki says the only shortages are peleton bikes.
