People Are Hoarding Toilet Paper Due To The Dockworker Strike

Posted by Ally Reid at Wednesday, October 2, 2024 at 10:29 PM

A trike that threatens to disrupt the supply chain has Americans hoarding toilet paper like it's 2020. Many people are posting photos of empty toilet paper shelves to social media, after a dockworker strike shut down 14 ports across the eastern U.S. But experts say there's no need to worry, because most toilet paper is shipped on land, either from U.S. factories or from Canada or Mexico. Most of what the port strike will affect is perishable goods, like produce. Source: CNN
