Food prices June 2021

[CrealCritter]

When sugar prices go up, the concern isn’t so much that our 4 pound bag at the store will be expensive, it’s that every food product in the store will become more expensive. Because food manufacturers put sugar in everything!! So yeah, being stocked up on food in general is good. This inflation isn’t going away.

There is an alternative, probably others i'm unaware of...

Organic non-gmo corn flakes sweetened with grape and or pear juice, plus sea salt. Goes great with milk and a sliced banana.

Huge seaport docking here in Norfolk -- supplies aplenty come & go every day. Of major news here is the possibility of a longshoreman's strike. This would affect ALL port dockings on East Coast & TX.

Would mean a lot of truckers parked. No containers off loaded. Annnnd....imported goods sitting....
Coffee, sugar, tea, spices, grains and so on, not even touching on other commodities.

Got it??? Keep a watch on the news. They say 1 day down, just here, would need 5 to catch up. Nice . And ya know they'll up price to recover.

Yeah, this is crazy. At work, a vendor already postponed a large device delivery once already. Was working with my core team and senior leadership to determine a new delivery date. We were all agreed get the stuff now, we'll store it until we can get to deploying them in January

I've been watching and reading about it on Reddit. Not going to be good.

The trickle down will last a while...

Dry goods, parts, foods, wines, fruits, etc. shippers are foreign primarily and not interested in higher fees. What next ?

I've been reading about the pending strike. Not only will it likely affect us as we look for imports to suppy alot of industries, but it will also HURT the export biz for beef, eggs and chicken. Refrigerated containers loaded with American produced protein will not be able to survive too many days being held up at port. Downward price pressures might occur, but its more likely that the products being packed for export will be simply discarded.

I sure hope not.

i'm pretty sure those containers are plugged in to keep them cool otherwise they'd be rotten after just a day sitting in those southern hotter ports.
