That should be a no brainer, but at a supermarket closer to boston a friend reported milk, eggs, meat, fruits and vegs were gone, but there was still plenty of pasta, canned goods, etc.

Be real people. These foods will simply spoil before you get to them. Sure, everyone is staying home and you need a little more, but be realistic.

It's just going to be thrown out and the shortage will raise prices for everyone.
