I've been hearing about a UK food shortage recently too. However, living in the UK, I've not seen any evidence of it so far. Some things are out of stock sometimes, but that's reasonably normal.
Never underestimate the capacity of our media to blow something up beyond all proportion. I don't doubt that supply is a bit lower than normal, but it's not like we're about to resort to cannibalism here.
