Around the same time as toilet paper, kitchen rolls, rice and pasta disappeared from the shops, flour disappeared as well. I did manage to buy some before the hoarding began but didn’t know I should have bought more at the time. One day we looked in six stores but the shelves were empty. And the shelves remain empty even today, with a few exceptions and those exceptions are sold out quickly.
It’s not a question of the country having run out of flour. It’s the packaging that can’t keep up with us consumers. The packaging lines for bakeries and restaurants which have been closed for weeks are difficult or impossible to change over to pack in consumer sizes. Now two supermarket chains have begun to pack from big bags into smaller bags. One of them is too far away and the one close by didn’t have any.
