Biden’s America: Sriracha and Peanut Butter the Latest Items in Short Supply
Sriracha hot sauce and peanut butter are the latest additions on the list of hard-to-find products amid the supply chain crisis in President Biden’s America, joining other items such as baby formula and recently, tampons.
The country is still grappling with a baby formula shortage following the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shutting down the Abbott Nutrition plant in Sturgis, Michigan, in February to investigate a purported bacterial outbreak at the facility. The investigation came after four infants became ill.
“The February voluntary recall involved four complaints of Cronobacter sakazakii — a common environmental bacteria — in infants who consumed infant formulas produced in this plant. Two infants became sick; two tragically passed away,” Abbott wrote in a May 11 update.
