>All I know is, when the meat department of my grocery store was bare for parts of March and April 2022, the meatless meat bin was fully stocked. People would rather starve than eat that junk.
On the first serious day of the Covid crisis, so what? Late March or early April of 2020? I went to Costco at opening time along with hundreds of my best friends. After filling a cart there, I went to Kroger in the early afternoon to pick up a few things.
The store was very picked over, bread, milk, cheese, meat pretty much all gone. But there was this one end coffin cooler of all the fake meat products that was FULL! I wish I had taken a picture.
Even when threatened with pandemic death if you go in public to shop, people won’t buy that over-processed crap.
Whoops...I meant 2020.
