I'm surprised there hasn't been a run on these items like there was with toilet paper. The shortage of wheat from Ukraine and high price of fertilizers here will most likely cause a shortage, or very high priced products made from wheat.

I think there will be a lot of issues stemming from this in the months to come. Price of meat and eggs will go much higher. I think I remember at one time knowing that more of the grain usage in our country was for animal feed than human.

pasta has been a hard to find item around here, more so broad noodles.

Ramen is still 29 cents a pack here

Before all this mess began, I used to love buying Jerusalem Artichoke pasta. It is a unique mix, that outstanding from all other pasta mixes, does not turn to glucose and spike blood sugar , but metabolizes slowly and assists in burning carbs , not storing them.

It was the nicest tasting pasta I have ever had , a bit more expensive , but so worth it.

Since mid 2020, it has no longer been on the market. Cant find it anywhere.

That's interesting Sharon. We used to grow Jersulem artichokes (mostly fed them to our hogs) they're very productive.

Beav, I have thought of growing my own , but time and my altitude elevation wouldnt make it easy. Mainly it is the time , which I dont have .

That pasta was the best I ever had, bar none. This was the dominant company who sold it most everywhere. I really miss it.

I'm headed for Walmart to do some hoarding of pasta and flour! Can't beat 34 cents for a box of mac n cheese!

so many people made a run on it in 2020 then didn't know what to do with it or how to use the flour

lots of bread making by some

I don't eat it any more in any quantity so the few bags lasts a long time

I need to grow cabbage this year and I buy some every week in the winter at the store. I have mostly replaced noodles and rice with cabbage in my diet

I got quite a bit some in 1/2 gal jars sealed, some froze, using up what I can before meal moths. Just made 4 quarts of flour gravy, and rice with meat grease for my 3 mutts.

2 Kings 20:14
14 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, “What did these men say [that would cause you to do this for them]? From where have they come to you?” Hezekiah said, “They have come from a far country, from Babylon.” 15 Isaiah said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen everything that is in my house (palace). There is nothing in my treasuries that I have not shown them.”

It’s going to be a long year with many lessons taught and maybe a few learned. They’re going to be hard lessons for those living in LaLa land. Deservingly so.

Long year? We got 3 more years of this comedy show!

Good question, Paul. Its good example of how so many these days have messed up survival instincts. It's there....but its twisted a bit. The real stuff: food, shelter, heat.... gets forgotten/replaced with stuff like paper products. The average city person won't think to stock up on any dry goods until they are told to.

Take away the House and Senate and he’ll start changing his mind. More than one President has unexpectedly died in office.

I heard the market report on wheat the other day and bought 100# of flour. Probably, haven’t used 100# of flour in the past 5 years, but I’m not going to run out!

One would be well advised to stock up on any non-perishables right now. I would call us a rudderless country but it wouldn't be true, we're being steered into this.

Pasta is getting scarce here.

Right. All the horrendous decisions from the beginning of this Marxist regime have been done on purpose.

A measure of wheat for a penny.

I love Pasta and things can get scary
