[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where does Heinz procure their ketchup bottles from?

All of the little plastic lids of every little piece of food we buy are made somewhere, not the US.

Most of our produce comes from central and south America.

Truckers won't deadhead their runs, so if there is nothing coming back, they won't go.

UPS is already seeing enough of a suspension of demand from retailers that they are laying off 20,000 drivers. What does that mean Amazon and Walmart are seeing?[/quote]

So Heinz ketchup could go up a whole 5 cents. Wow. I remember when the left was fine with the price increases the last few years and now they are freaking out about pennies. So funny.[/quote]

The cost of EACH INGREDIENT goes up because they are almost all imported.
And maybe they are able to procure the bottles or maybe they are not. Well find out in August if we can have ketchup for Labor Day BBQ's.[/quote]

:roll:

yeah the entire for-profit capitalism system is just going to collapse, Food companies will just stop selling food and close their doors, we will all starve especially when it comes to DCUM crowd, which isn’t the Prepper, homestead, bartering type[/quote]

If they don't have containers to pack and ship the food in, if there are not truckers to deliver the product to stores, then it becomes a problem, no?[/quote]

And why would we have no containers and no truckers? Where will they go? [/quote]

Most of the containers or materials for containers are made in china
The truckers won't dead head one way, it isn't financially worth it for them.[/quote]
