Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki and Honda street bikes.
Oddly, KTM's (street & off road) seem to populate showroom floors.

bendable"Have you tried Home Depot? Ours had pallets of them. Maybe you could ship to your local store."
Ours is 12 miles out of the way,
I tried calling them four times, they won't pick up the phone.
Next time I am in the general vicinity, I will swing by,
Thanks.

drabfourTrappey’s sliced jalapeños. The regulars ones not those nasty sweet hot ones.

parabellumYeah, gotta have my Trappey's, and yes, the "sweet hot" ones are nasty.
Around these parts, Trappey's has been scarce for quite some time, but they can be had if you're patient.

Timdogg6No nacho cheese at taco bell. that was a head scratcher.
Two Scoops, if taco bell ain't got cheese, you got problems.

PASigJust saw something that doctors and pharmacists are getting nervous about a coming amoxicillin shortage? Seems like a LOT of the components come from China for this and other meds.
Just lovely

BisleyblackhawkCream cheese with salmon for my damn bagels…only thing that my Publix seems to have is cream cheese with fruit (gag) or garden vegetable (tolerable…but growing mundane)

and grits (real cook on the stovetop the old fashioned way) not that instant “grits” wannabes crap

…that’s akin to eating boiled frozen okra instead of the okra from my small garden. (First world problems to say the least)

StorminNorminToday seemed to be dairy products in my area. Either the grocery store just hadn’t stocked the shelves, or there is an issue. The entire dairy section was almost completely bare.

InusuitExtra crunchy peanut butter. Available only in tiny jars lately.

BisleyblackhawkLet me add Tony’s canned clam chowder to the mix…haven’t seen it locally for several weeks and when I asked about it at my Publix this morning I was told they are having supply issues receiving it (zero supply issues with that damned Campbell Chunky Clam Chowder shit…I want my Tony’s…it’s comfort food for goodness sakes…what’s next? Truck Cheese?

) …At least I’ve stockpiled “King Oscar” brand double stack bristling sardines in olive oil…now if I can just find Large Rifle Primers locally my world will be sorta copasetic

Another result of letting everything go to China

If we ever really mix it up with them in a real shooting war, we are going to be totally fucked:
Amoxicillin shortage has parents panicking: ‘It’s a little bit freaky’I’ll just have to pray that none of my kiddos get ear infections this winter.

PASigNow it's lettuce

Went out to a little pizza place down the road from work to pick up lunch and there's a hand written sign at the counter saying something like this:
"Attention Customers: I wanted to let you know that lettuce has gone from $35 a case to $100 a case recently and I've held off for a month on menu prices to see if the cost would go down. It does not appear to be so we have no choice but to raise prices on salads by $XYZ for a small and $ABC for a large."

I was having a lot of trouble too and ended up ordering from Amazon, Deer Park brand. Was about twice the cost of the grocery store or Walmart but I stocked up.
