No doubt a lot of it will be wasted even if bought and stockpiled as they struggle to consume it before exp. date. In either case, it's not like people kick their appetites into high gear because they're suddenly more sedentary than usual, and likewise, producers don't expect in the medium to long run that excessive short run food demand is going to sustain.

Despite empty shelves, there isn't a shortage of food — Here's some reasons why.
maybe you didn't understand the comment🙂, I meant that for the suppliers there isn't much being wasted these days and that is evident by the empty shelves. There are some businesses that even run solely on food donations (produce) from local grocery markets to make things like juices, produce they will throw away that isn't sold, and at several stores I have seen including my own there is next to nothing in terms of produce available right now, but they keep trying to restock so I am not really worried long term. If it gets as bad as some ppl suspect then I bet there will be next to nothing wasted seeing as people will obv eat anything so that they don't starve🙂 ✌️

I personally would like to see a return to frugal living. If that means understanding you'll eat what is available, instead of being spoilt by choice and quantity for a while, then that's good. Maybe some of us might even start homesteading.
