[SAN Man]

Last weekend I planned meatballs for dinner. One of the main ingredients in my meatballs is a grated Yukon Gold potato and because I'm shredding one potato I may as well make mashed potatoes as a side. I went out to the store and couldn't find Yukon Gold potatoes at Sprouts, Vons, or Costco. I almost gave up, but happened to come across a 1.5 lb bag of small Yukon Golds at Target for $4.49 while shopping for something else. Usually you buy these for $1.29/lb or less.

Then about 4 or 5 days after that, I saw on the news there's a global potato shortage due to Covid-19. In that news clip, they said French fries are almost impossible to find in Japan. Has anybody else experienced a potato shortage where you live due to Covid-19?
