US farmers don't have anywhere to sell their livestock, he said

I'm not an agricultural expert but if people are Stuck At Home are they eating less than when they were working? Most complain they are getting fatter.

...eating less ...

Cooking and baking are the new time-killers.

I have full/stuffed freezers/pantry and while I do run out of some things, I am applying every trick I’ve learned in 77 years to stretch our food supply. 2 old people don’t eat a lot.

I bought one 14-lb turkey for .99/lb 2 weeks ago. Had to cook it after defrosting because I had no room in the freezers. So far, it has provided 5 meals, with enough left for another 8 or so, not counting the carcass and drippings for soup.

At this rate, we’re good for another 2 months. Maybe longer.
