The independence of infrastructure is the stated goal. But I doubt it's the main one. They've been trying to shut down opposition political commentary[0] by forcing them to move outside of the .ru domain. The next step is to limit

I find that a lot of food can be frozen - bread is the first thing that comes to mind but also many that are added to dishes (milk, condiments) or reheated/cooked before consumption. Berries and fruit are also good at freezing.
