Headlines like, "WWIII has likely started already, but we have been slow to recognize it," from Bill Ackman, and corporate media pushing nuclear war hype and hysteria had sparked unease among American households who hadn't felt this way since the early days of the virus pandemic when they were caught empty-handed with limited supplies to weather COVID lockdowns. 

Americans, many of whom have been transformed into preppers in a post-COVID era, are at it again, panic hoarding supplies as they fear Russia's invasion of Ukraine could be the catalyst for the next world war (well, at least they think this way because corporate media is telling them). What's evident so far is that Russia's ongoing conflict within Ukraine is disrupting global supply chains and food supplies. People see the writing on the wall as prices soar at gas stations and supermarkets. The conflict overseas is already sending commodity prices sky-high, which may eventually spark shortages. 

So as Americans unleash their inner prepper. They're panic hoarding ReadyWise emergency food kits sold at Costco Wholesale Corporation's brick and mortar stores and or online that at least one variety of the products has already been sold out.
