Oh! Good question! Cheese and canned tomatoes are regular staples for my cooking. I buy fresh vegetables as well and eat them every day sometimes with my morning breakfast. I like vegan burgers and I’m afraid that I’m going to have to give them up because two vegan burgers are four dollars and some of them are six now. Don' t quite know why but I won't pay that. I hear there will be a surge in gas prices too.

Mint chocolate chip ice cream.

Coffee

Half & half

Chocolate

Butter, cheese, bread, pasta, canned tomato products, tea, sugar, peanut butter and strawberry jam.

Wheat. Tomatoes. Dairy. French grapes. Because bread and pasta, tomatoes and sauces, cheeses and cream sauces (and ice cream), and a glass or two. Oh, salt and sugar.

Coffee

Wine

Cheese

Bread

Bacon

OMG!! I'd starve to death!

(and dog food......that might have to go at the top of the list :-))

Coffee, chocolate, and beef. Cat food would be high on the list because while I can eat veggies and there may be enough rodents in the area for some of my cats my 20+ year old can not and will not eat veggies. His mouse catching days are over and I do not think I am fast enough to catch any for him.

Upset is a strong word so for me, the answer is None.

I missed fresh vegetables when they were not readily available. I'm hoping that we won't see a shortage of eggs.

Beef,lamb and other red meats, bread or the ingredients to bake bread, cheese and fruit. Those would be the foremost things I would miss. I really need red meat in my diet to feel healthy.

Not really people foods but a shortage of dog and other pet and livestock food would also be high on the list.

Stok cold brew coffee, milk to put in it, eggs, cheese, avocados, and gardening supplies. I'm having a hard time right now finding sweet potato slips. I'm just hoping they haven't made it to the gardening centers yet. Most of the online catalogs are either out or super expensive.

fresh vegetables

I was annoyed when there were shortages of yeast and flour, and especially whole wheat flour, but I would be more upset if there were shortages of fresh vegetables, such as lettuce, spinach, broccoli, cabbage, etc. Of course I can grow lettuce myself very easily (providing I have seeds), but I have not grown the others.

I already have quite a bit of fruit in my back yard, as well as herbs.

I would be upset with a shortage of rice and beans, and I did notice that these were sold out at Cárdenas market early in the pandemic.

I would not be happy with a shortage of wine and vodka, but I have not seen that happen, although it almost did in Vancouver when I was there during a government threat of a liquor strike, which did not happen, once the government liquor stores no longer had merchandise.

We're about to see a shortage of chicken, or at least a sharp spike in prices.

Last year there was a shortage of tomato sauce that annoyed me.

Fresh produce would upset me. Also cheese or coffee

unsweetned cereal would send my husband over the edge

Yogurt, kefir, eggs, bread, mayo, tomato paste, tortilla chips, some form of berries for UTI (i.e. craisins), green grapes, Cortland apples, green beans, kirbies, onions, yams, carrots, chicken.

I don't find any shortage acceptable. All that weirdness with horsing last year, and now our supply chain problems are quite unnecessary.

A few years ago the Australian banana plantations were destroyed by a cyclone. No bananas for months (Australia does not import foreign bananas). My husband was not a happy camper. So bananas are top of my list.

Based on last year's experience, I'd add canned tomatoes, rice, and dried pasta to the list.

We had all sorts of disruptions to the supply chain, particularly of meat and chicken, so the selection wasn't always extensive, but there was always some sort of meat or fish available, and lots of vegetables. And I was inundated by sales and delivery offers from every winery I'd ever visited, so I am confident there will never be a shortage on that front!

Organic bread, coffee, and cheese.

Eggs, coffee, ½ & ½, cheeses. I could cobble together something to eat every day but do not mess with breakfast and especially my coffee.

Cheese & tomatoes. But, I can make white sauces and top things with sour cream. ♥

Coffee is about the only item I couldn't replace with similar. I'm flexible also, so I can figure out how to be happy with just about any sort of fruit, vegetable, grain, meat, oil, etc.

The fact I have never considered this says that I am a very blessed person.

Coffee and bacon. I don't get people who don't like either. Are they actually human? ;)

Frozen vegetables, fresh greens, and tea the most. Eggs and dairy products would be next - milk, sour cream, cheese, yoghurt. I can get by without meat/poultry/fish but I would miss it. Can take or leave grains, since I've cut way down on consumption. I might even manage without cooking oil - I use very little as is.

I could get by without almost anything for a while, but I would miss a regular supply of coffee. I can grow most of my favorite vegetables in summer but then winter hits and I rely on frozen things often or what is available fresh.

I have just faced similar serious deprivations, but I overcame shelves empty of Jack Daniel's and Ghiradelli Chocolate Fudge Caramel bars. DH found the bourbon at a liquor store, and I ordered two cases of the chocolate bars shipped from Ghiradelli. I'll be peeved if I can't find LaBrea bread in any of our local grocery stores.

Say, what's up with these big, mushy 'blueberries' I'm seeing at Costco and grocers? Hope Michigan will come through come July -- despite the woes of Climate Change.

I never really noticed any food shortages last year, but I've given this question a lot of thought. I could probably work around almost any food shortage, but that doesn't mean I'd like it. Nor that I'd be able to stay fairly healthy. (I have quite a few health induced dietary restrictions.) So. . . . . . . .

Coffee

Chicken

Fish

Fresh produce

Frozen vegetables

There may be more, but that's what comes to mind so far.

Chisue while I have not seen the blueberries you mentioned in the stores here they are supposedly sweeter and more flavorful than the regular sized ones according to a grower that posted on a site I frequent.

Coffee and cat food are at the top of my list. Luckily I'm stocked up fairly well on both.

I can get by for a time without most anything, except my tea.

Cat food, chicken feed, eggs, cheese, water.

Yep, coffee. I also like my brand of cereal for breakfast and would miss that.

maifleur -- Nope, those big berries are too soft and mushy for me, and they rot after three days in the refrigerator. Most summers I buy 'low' and freeze the nice Michigan blues. They keep forever!

The loss of any of my staples would be harsh. These include:

Beans

Chili and Beans

Chili

Potatoes

Bread

Beef

Green beans, lettuce, cabbage, carrots, celery

Apples, grapes, oranges
