Yet another industry is being impacted by supply chain issues, and this one hits particularly close to home for New Yorkers.
A fresh bagel with cream cheese is a New York City staple, but bagel shop patrons might run into some issues getting the latter half of the combo. Outposts across the five boroughs report that they are having trouble restocking cream cheese.

Chip shortage? OK

X-Box and PlayStation shortage? Grrrr, Christmas problem but OK
Lumber shortage? I already have a house so OK
Cream cheese shortage? Oh no - it's not fun or funny any more. These shortages are really serious now!
The cream cheese shortage is the canary in the coal mine for what’s to come. It’s a small part of a severe supply chain crisis that Biden doesn’t know how to fix. Expect lingering dragflation in the coming years!
Here’s an excerpt from Trends Journal:
Inflation has risen faster than incomes. With supply chains disrupted during the COVID War, there have been shortages of raw materials, finished goods and components which have driven, and keep driving, prices higher.
And now with politicians taking more draconian lockdown measures, issuing “no-work, no-pleasure” mandates to the unvaxxed, and ramping up the fight against the new Omicron COVID variant by imposing more restrictions, prohibiting travel in various nations, etc, ... there will be more supply chain disruptions and labor shortages which will keep inflation rising, while driving down economic growth.
Thus it will be Dragflation: inflation rises and economies decline. With Stagnation, the economy stagnates as inflation rises.
By the way, for those of you who like butter, know that you need cream to make butter. So expect a shortage of that as well. Once the shortage comes, they’re going to force people to consume the very unhealthy GMO processed hydrogenated “vegetable” omega 6 oils which cause inflammation, heart disease and dementia. Then they’re going to say that it was the COVID phi, delta and omnicron viruses that caused people getting sick!
