I work on a team that's mostly offshore in India. One of them remarked that they went to multiple stores and couldn't find any vegetables. Like many Indians, my coworker is a vegetarian. That's just an anecdote, but I worry things are going to get bad there.
There's locust swarms in Africa, and it's potentially heading towards China. I expect there to be widespread food shortages in the coming weeks/months. I'm not sure about how life will be here in the US. We're rich, we're a net food exporter, etc. as long as the processing and other supply chain parts keep mostly working I think we'll be okay-ish. You might not get the exact product you want, but you probably won't face starvation. But in many poor countries in Africa and Asia, I think it's about to get really, really bad.
