Re:Bank of England warns of 'apocalyptic' global food shortage by codefreeordie on Monday May 16, 2022 @11:41PM (#31405804)
I was including the US among the rich countries where people won't starve, but will instead merely pay more and possibly have less choice available that they can afford.

It will be in the places where people already live close to the edge where true hunger will emerge.

That's a good point. I'm curious if those countries which aren't overwhelmed by globalization and still produce locally will be alright. As I read the articles about where wheat importing is happening, like Indonesia, China, Japan, Vietnam, I wonder if those shortages will only affect the upper class who are buying those Western goods, while people who still use rice as their main staple will be ok. I'm not sure.
