I know someone who works distribution for a decent sized food producer. Meat, eggs, dairy mainly.
They're telling me their meat division is doing no business because of all the restaurants shutting down because of corona.
However, they cannot produce milk fast enough because it's flying off the shelves locally. That's right, people are hoarding milk. MILK, which obviously expires relatively quickly.
Also everyone at the plant and their truck drivers were issued a Gov pass they have to show if any kind of curfew/lockdown occurs and they get pulled over, saying they can pass because they work in food production/distribution.
You know what? I believe you. And I’m saying this after having been to 10 different Publix’s in Florida and found that for some weird reason people are hoarding milk? Any reason why?

judging by the fact that flower is gone too people are probably using it to try and make shitty survival biscuits or something. Just follow the recipe for scones but use milk instead of water plus add a shitload of sugar. It'll actually give them metabolic syndrome from the constant massive blood insulin spikes which will cause their body to automatically store carbohydrates as fat while simultaneously rendering their fat stores inaccessible but people are retards.
Jeremiah White
People are retarded?
IDK but this person told me one of their delivery drivers said he brought a pallet of gallon milk jugs into the grocery store, then he walked back out to his truck to bring in another pallet, the first pallet was empty. Literally in like 30sec.
Aaron Russell
>They're telling me their meat division is doing no business because of all the restaurants shutting down And yet supermarkets can't keep meat on the shelf. Youre full of shit.
I work at a Publix near an area that had not had beaches shutdown and can say that tourists partying from the upper states on lockdown like NY were buying up EVERYTHING to feed their families leaving the locals with scraps...

If you don’t open ultra pasteurized milk it doesn’t go bad for a very long time. They just refrigerate because people don’t like the idea of canned milk.
They only sell meat to businesses, not retail. Their dairy is their own brand and is sold to the public in stores. Think I'm full of shit if you want but that's what I was told by someone I've known for years.
Tyler Perry
Yep.
Tyler Moore
Yes.

I dont know if it is related, but people in New Zealand are hoarding flour. Maybe they are using milk to make a bunch of cakes which they will then freeze in bulk or something dumb like that. Also here, people are hoarding long-life milk and powdered milk, not regular milk. I am surprised to see that a small remote island nation in the middle of nowhere is having less stocking issues than the United states.
What the fuck is with that jug? Isn't the handle supposed to be at the corner? What region is this normal in?
James James
she is a sikh poo they make yogurt because they can't eat meat they buy that much milk normally
Camden Bennett
Thank you. Glad someone finally said it.
William Perry
>I am surprised to see that a small remote island nation in the middle of nowhere is having less stocking issues than the United states. America is the most decadent nation in the entirety of human history. 50% of all food consumed is prepared outside the home.
So they shut down the restaurants and act surprised when the grocery stores run out of stock. If people simply bought the food they needed daily each day, the grocery stores would have to double their supply to meet demand. Because of the panic, not only are there twice as many customers, but people are buying a month+ worth of food. Even people who aren't panicking over memeflu are buying extra because they are rightfully worried they might not be able to get groceries next week.
Food supplies for restaurants are often not saleable in grocery stores due to labeling laws. Everything you can order at Olive Garden is frozen and prepackaged and basically indistinguishable from a frozen dinner. But it's packaged in unlabeled freezer bags. They legally can not just toss that into the grocery store freezer and sell it. Naturally, the emergency measures the government is considering to deal with the crisis the government manufactured does not involve waiving normal packaging requirements. They just want to toss money at the problem, because there is not a single American politician alive who actually understands food distribution, household food preferences, or even what the laws they're voting on do.

Fucking lady buying beauty supplies.
Can this wrinkly handed boomer faggot die? Oh please please please.

Oliver Perry
It's the millions of poos that have been imported here and need to go back. They freeze the milk.
David Howard
is it possible for me to buy direct from them. i would like to purchase a couple whole cows
Chase Lopez
The NYC retards absolutely decimated our local stores in the mountains of Pennsylvania.
Benjamin White
Sorry guy, that reference went over my head. Not as hip as you I guess.
Charles Foster
I fucking hate you faggots so much, this panic was caused by YOU, this hoard by YOU. STOP IT!
Kayden Moore
MURRIIIIIIICAAAAAAAAAAA
Aiden Hill
pro tip; keffir stays good for months even if you open it
Adam Robinson
Hell milk expires faster than it's listed date which it's supposed to be the opposite
Fuck that torture cum you call dairy. I'll stick to almond milk. It tastes better, has more calcium, less calories, and doesn't abuse cows
Connor Howard
I actually got milk on Monday, all that was left was 1%. I asked the kid that worked there if the store was over-ordering stuff to compensate for the retarded TP raiders and he said only milk is getting over ordered. He said people were grabbing 10 gallons at a time and was laughing "like, it's going to go bad in a week, what are they doing with it all? Where are they putting it lol"
I keked
Ryder Murphy
Vons, Ralphs, and Target shelves are stripped completely bare of pretty much everything including meat.
Carson Turner
You can freeze milk to preserve it.
Adam Rivera
Fuck, we deserve this
Camden Sanders
Almond milk tastes like fucking shit.
Aiden Robinson
>not as hip as you I guess Or just fucking new as fuck. Sure, it's an old meme, very old, but it's been ressurected in the last couple of weeks.
Gabriel Robinson
>MILK, which obviously expires relatively quickly. you guise don't use this?
Have you ever had frozen milk reconstituted? It’s fucking disgusting I mean in an apocalypse I guess it’s something but that’s not what this is and you just confirmed that this is once again boomers doing boomer things to fuck the younger gen over Fuck I hope we do get a million deaths all of them boomers
Caleb King
Kek >be my wife >call Costco >ask if they have any toilet paper >um yes mam we have plenty >is it charmin or kirkland? >kirkland brand only mam >o ok nevermind. Thanks. Pretty sure my wife is a 33rd degree troll
That's a beaner time. This isn't a sikh. Stop making excuses for dumb hoarders. lol
Jack Williams
Lockdown would be fucking fake gay hoax bullshit
Jace Stewart
Any chance that pass could be duplicated? Is it rfid readable? What state OP?
Asking for a friend....
But for real, it's disheartening to see how fast that people will just blindly accept the narrative and follow orders as to what is happening. I don't have any connections to the normiesphere social media, but from everyone that I know irl, they will blindly do what they are told, even to their grave. None of them were following this when China instituted the largest quarantine in history, and until a week ago it was just a flu to them that in no way could disrupt their lives, and now the jackasses think they are epidemiologists because they follow governmental orders (that don't work to stop the spread of this virus, because it is obviously an airborne bioweapon) and they heard what the well spoken minority and the man in the white coat had to say on the telly.
I can do without a lot of shit, but I will literally kill a nigger over a gallon of milk.
Jacob Thomas

Just a bunch of dumb millenial and boomer cunts who don't know how to cook anyhow. Gen X men know what to do.
Tyler Wright
No but when I was a kid my grandmother would freeze loafs of wonderbread for us kids during the summer months. Tasted disgusting when thawed out.
Angel Powell
Some people freeze milk... i have 2.5 in my fridge right now. We drink about 1 in 3-4 days so I try to keep 2 in the fridge. I overbought by 1 just to top off.
Zachary Jones
there's milk that lasts like 3 weeks, just not the cheapest store brand. not ideal but not only 1.
Alexander Perez
Why don't they just tell customers that they have to put back anything more than 2 or 3 milk jugs?
Gavin Hughes
My store has been doing that and people get pissed off like there is nothing wrong with trying to hoard during a national crisis.
Nolan Green
You try telling a nigger that they can't have something they want, while you're a grocery clerk making minimum wage. Enjoy your fresh bullet wounds and blunt force trauma as they chimp out and start smashing you overhead like the apes they are.
Ayden Thomas
I don't get panic buyers. if the habbening level stays low and supply lines stay up then it doesn't matter what they buy since there will always be more availible. if shit really hits the fan and the grid goes down all the idiots who bought milk and shit will just get murdered by people who have been hoarding ammo and non-perishables for years.
>Have you ever had frozen milk reconstituted? It’s fucking disgusting that's what ovaltine is for nigga
Ian Williams
I grew up on a farm. It's illegal to drink/sell raw milk in the United States. Yes the stupidity of people is showing but if you're hungry and need it you won't mind. More than likely the people in the pictures are trying to horde for other people in there families or sale it. And if you have a pressure canner you can can fresh milk. Not your average gen x er here. Went to the store the other day bought a gallon of milk. Some more cans of evaporated milk and a bunch if shelf safe milk. You're an idiot. Military being called in. People going crazy to stock up. The meat industry will be just fine if not jack up there prices to the federal government
