Food Shortage

We have experienced our first shortage. I could not find milk yesterday in any form. I even was able to check the Naknek grocery store as I had to run there to pick up bear spray for Brooks Camp yesterday. None. No powder, no drug filled shelf milk or real milk in the dairy case. I couldn't buy any dairy products yesterday. The salmon fishermen have emptied our dairy case. I guess I can understand being out of milk as I could not tell you where the nearest dairy cow is.

When I got back home I looked through the mail and my invoice for Span Alaska was there. I had odered quite a bit of stuff from them and was excited to see that it had been shipped finally. What I was surprised by is that the case of hotdogs I ordered was not going to be shipped as the manufactor was out. How can you be out of hot dogs. They are made with the left over byproducts of all the other meats. There wasn't anything left over to make even a few hotdogs. I can understand no milk but I can't understand no hot dogs.
