[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You people really don't plan to leave your house for A WEEK?????

No wonder the aisles are bare.

The level of hysteria here about navigating sub-optimal road conditions from some people.  Wow.[/quote]

You realize some people only shop once a week on a typical week??[/quote]

Most people have several weeks worth of well-above-survival-level food in their homes. It might not be ingredients for fresh baked banana bread, but it is nutritious and it is as exciting as the skills of the person preparing it.

The people going to stores right now [i]want[/i] ingredients for specific bread/lasagna/cookies/chili/etc... they don't [i]need[/i]. But if this is how they want to spend their time -- emptying shelves of flour and toilet paper along with a mob of like-minded doomsday psychos -- they are welcome. It's their hobby.[/quote]

They take everything and then others can’t do their normal shopping. Last night Wegman’s milk shelf was completely empty of all types of milk - absolutely none left except soy and oat milk. [/quote]

Are there that many people over the age of 7 who can't go without milk? Bizarre.[/quote]

My college age son still drinks close to a gallon a day, luckily low fat and he drinks a lot of water but still. DH drinks milk everyday, no fat but not in the huge quantities as DS. DD drinks whole milk but sporadically and cooks/bakes with it. So if everyone is home for 4-5 days I need 4 gallons of low fat milk, one gallon of skim and 1/2 gallons of whole milk. If I had to go a full 7 days. I would need 7 gallons low-fat, 1 gallon skim and 1 gallon whole. I’d look like a milk hoarder during storms.

DP. PP asked about "can't go without".

You say "need". Does your family "need" the 9 gallons of milk per week? What consequences do you face if they go without the 9 gallons of milk?
