Shortages ...

Since when does any store run out of hummus? It's not something I want all the time but I just felt like some yesterday .. and when I realised how little we had left it went on the shopping list for today. Simple enough ... except our usual Coles store had run out of it ... and a heap of other stuff as well. The other stuff I understand ... but hummus? Usually there are buckets of it everywhere but this time not one little tub of it ... even in those flavours that people tend to choose last - if at all. And don't get anyone started on toilet paper ... people just seem to grab rolls of it whenever there's even a rumour of shortages. At least there haven't been any stories of fisticuffs over it as there were at the start of the CoVid pandemic.
