I don't have a photo of my own experience, but here's a news article with one: https://www.cpr.org/2020/04/06/in-summit-county-essential-businesses-cant-sell-yo

  My crazy experience in Austria was that one was unable to buy plastic forks. Packets of plastic knives were still on shelves, but the forks had been removed. I thought it was random luck, but three large supermarkets were the same. I guess they really didn’t want people eating at those forbidden gatherings.

    Seems more likely that they were just in short supply. Plastic forks always sell better than other plastic cutlery. I don't think there's much panic buying of plastic forks but it's the kind of item they probably weren't in a hurry to restock when there's a massive run on toilet paper and pasta.

  In Toronto, the Dollarama until just a few days ago, had many of their shelves blocked off. You could get food, candy, pet supplies, batteries but you couldn't get books, toys, clothing, headphones... I thought it was all pretty random and bizarre.
