Well I dont know what the problem is right now,but having hauled a lot of food it could be this.Since the price of fuel is so high,trucks are going to haul stuff that pays a fuel surcharge.They cant afford not to.So,like when I was hauling,I would try hard to get a load with a fuel surcharge,and if no surcharge,Id leave the load set on the dock.You cant run a truck for nothing,or less than nothing,and stay in business. What the whole problem with everything,and why prices are higher is,most of it is because of the price of fuel.Things arent going to get any better,only worse,until the price of fuel comes down,if it ever does.As the price of fuel goes up,like it did in 2008,it crashes the economy and raises the price of everything else eventually,which it did.If there are empty shelves at your store,it will probably get worse.Also they may have jacked the price up on the items on that shelf so high that the store refused to buy it.They dont make much per box of stuff and if they think they cant sell it,they might quit handling it.Or maybe they just are rearranging the store. Aldis is the cheapest place to get milk here and its about 3.50 per gallon.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
