I went grocery shopping this morning at my local Meijer (Michigan) and it was surprisingly well-stocked. A few gaps in the can soup aisles, but that was clearly from a sale they had on Progresso soups (8 for $8). Otherwise, plenty of paper towel, toilet paper, Clorox wipes, even canned pumpkin.
However, the spices were decimated! The weird thing is they had nearly all of them with orange “clearance” tags on them. Now I’ve been shopping at Meijer long enough to know that the clearance tags means an item will be soon discontinued. That seemed ridiculous for all of these spices, so I asked a grocery worker who confirmed that yes, they would be discontinued but didn’t know why, or if they’d be replaced by anything else. I’m pretty stocked on spices so I didn’t buy anything, but there honestly wasn’t much left.
Anyone else seeing an anomaly in the spice aisles?
