In food industry I could write an endless list. I am currently using a substitute Fry, onion ring, chicken wings are all over the chart in both size and price. Beer from certain suppliers is an issue. It's little bombs going off every time I order, then i scramble around trying to source it. We are currently out of the orange liquor we float on our Rita's.

Heard a program on NPR, even GM, Ford and Chrysler are slowing down production and even pausing some factories because they can't get computer chips and materials. Apparently when the pandemic started easing up, there was an influx of buying of new cars and they can't support the buyer market. The chip shortage is due to a factory in Japan that makes them caught fire. The fire that Renesas had was on top of an ongoing chip shortage . When you combine both of these things --- and the fact that Renesas's factory will probably be at least 6 months before any real wafer production , the new car shortage will only get much worse . Toyota , Honda and Nissan will be hit hardest by the fire , then Mercedes and BMX next . The upcoming quarterly revenue reports from all car companies is going to be scary bad .

I don't know really know how all the tax stamps on booze works in the bar business, but I'm assuming you wouldn't be allowed to just toss a bottle up behind the bar that was purchased at a retail location. Would that be correct? There is certainly no shortage of orange liqours sitting on the shelf at my local Spec's.

We make all the beer you can sell. No shortages at our brewery. Just let me know when you want to put the #1 IPA brand in the US on tap.

Raw castings, heat exchangers, accumulator shells, accumulator bladders, steel support tubes to make filters with, steel tubing to make cylinders and piston accumulators, any sort of transducer, labor to put stuff together. Even if we had raw material availability, there isn’t any room on the ships needed to get it here and air freight has gone super stupid.
I’m in the fetal position by noon everyday trying to expedite the orders I have. It’s horrible.

I have heard there is a shortage of Zoom worms. Nothing else matters.
