The Coming Food Crisis May Look Nothing Like A Crisis Until It's Too Late
Authored by Madge Waggy via MadgeWaggy.blogspot.com,
Just after the morning deliveries and before the first customers, a supermarket looks both ordinary and slightly deceptive. The lights are on, the coolers hum, and the shelves hold exactly what they held last week.

She does not like to cook either, so that means a lot of food deliveries. “If I want sushi, I'm getting sushi,” said the 24-year-old nanny, who lives in Raleigh, North Carolina. “I'm definitely lazy in that regard.”Bauldree got into the habit of near-daily DoorDashing back in college. “I could order whatever food from whatever restaurant and it showed up at my door – that's the dream,” she said. “But then I just feel like crap about myself because I'm like, 'wow, I'm a lazy piece of shit.'
