I think the March 2020 bare shelves caught a LOT of people off guard.

Based on what I’ve been seeing at BJs and Sam’s, people are still prepping.

Oh so that’s why Biden keeps mumbling about “Wapner” and the time Wapner comes on.

Haven’t been out this week yet so I’ll see how it goes. Last week shelves were still full here.

People are not “hoarding”. That is just a narrative the media is trying to set to show how evil people are, especially red state Americans. “Hoarding” has an evil connotation.

Yes, people are stocking up on food and other household items. They would be foolish not to. As more and more items are disappearing from the shelves, and those items you can find have a price increase of 25 percent or more, people are doing the smart thing and buying what they can now. They are buying what they need or what they may need in the future. Gosh, the media leftist mouthpieces are evil themselves!

Hoarding? No. Keeping a good stock of necessities? Yes. It’s normal. It’s rational and it has been going on since long before Obama changed the landscape forever.

SAFETY WARNING: RECALLED canned Roast Beef and Gravy by Crider Foods, date codes “Best By” 10/22 and 3/23.

Excellent product ruined by outsourced, untested spice in it that appears to contain LEAD. Learned of the recall, contacted Dollar General concerning returning the affected cans we’ve “put back”. This is week 2 of waiting for DG to produce a firm “plan” of how to handle this. I’ve discussed it with one store manager I know so far. We just want our money back or in store credit(s) for ALL of the bad product we were sold. Crider has gone down a few notches in our book for not testing every batch of additive(spice in this case) they use in a food product.

USDA/FSIS recall notice:

Affected Crider labels, not just Dollar General’s “Clover Valley” label:

A few of my neighbors are like me - prepared.

My two closest neighbors - like me - private arsenal.

True

If things got so bad that we had to eat all our meat goats and then got hungry with the LGDs having nothing left to guard, we might have to go all Korean on them.

It angers me the position our overlords have put us in. This will not continue. The Country is disgusted with all that is happening.
