The shortage is of different natures in different areas. If the covid pandemic keeps shutting down processing plants due to employees falling ill of the virus, then the shortages will become more universal in the US. The meat hitting the fan,so to speak.
Some places are already limiting meat purchases - so it doesn’t all disappear along with the TP & other paper goods, cleaning supplies and such.
I did see can only buy 2 of same items. Its a good idea.
