Now that the great TP shortage of 2020 seems to have abated have you noticed other items that have gone missing from your shelves? Besides the whole disinfecting wipes shortage that is constantly ongoing.
Odd things that have been around literally forever that just disappeared.
When this first hit I noticed I was having a hard time finding frozen egg patties that I have been buying since the kids were small. Next up were the frozen maple pancakes. 😱 (If you are noticing a theme here yes it is all the ingredients for a "McGriddle" copycat 😂)
Now for months I have been trying to grab oranges & cream drink enhancer and it is pretty much hit or miss, the whole section is sparse.
Manicotti shells are another rarely there item.
Turkey bacon, gone from Walmart.
Have you noticed any shortages on your favorites?

For a while, Decker Cotto Salami (my husbands favorite) was just gone. It's back now.

For a while I couldn’t get reduced fat or nonfat mayonnaise. The shelves are still pretty bare in the mayo aisle.
The TP aisle will be full one week, various brands and packages- a few weeks later maybe only one brand and it’s fairly no name. I still don’t understand that.

Diet Dr. Pepper cherry....really any flavor...even diet is hit or miss here. Full sugar can be found. When I called I was told there is an aluminum shortage. I don’t know if I agree with this because I can find the full sugar in aluminum cans no problem

Certain brands of Ice cream bars and sugar free popsicles are hit or miss. Yet just a couple months ago they were fully stocked at all the stores we shop at

Canned Green Beans - one of my go to vegetables. They are still in short supply in some stores I go in and when I do see them I have to stop myself from buying all of them on the shelf

Caffeine Free Diet Coke is hit and miss. Canned tomato products seem sparse also.

I can't find any Diet Root Beer in any brand. I agree with others who said if we can produce Coke and Pepsi, why can't we produce diet drinks? Makes no sense. But, I tried the Diet Root Beer HEB brand and DH likes it. It cost $2.67 versus $5.27 of Barq's . So, we may not go back!
I've noticed slim pickings for canned tomato products. I've heard there is a shortage of appliances like refrigerators and washers and many are back ordered. A friend ordered new insulated windows for her home and there is a 14-week wait (which usually only took 10 days)
I can't find any Oscar Meyer pickle loaf or pimento loaf sandwich meat. That's not necessarily a bad thing but DH does enjoy them for sandwiches.
