Maybe some of this is store or chain specific than nationwide supply chain?

Yes this. My friend was complaining about not finding cream cheese in her state. We have tons of cream cheese but no evaporated milk.

Uncle Ben's white rice is nowhere to be found.

My furniture that was ordered in October and scheduled for February delivery has been pushed to March. If they push it one more time I plan to cancel and just sleep on the floor.
