It's not about the quality, it's about the sitting home after a hard day and digging into fried rice.

Clearly.

I went to the Safeway today. It was ... I don't know, it was weird, like what a polite, slow-motion food riot would be. The store was packed, midday on a Friday. Produce was reasonably well stocked, as was :) the beer aisle. I doubt there's a roll of toilet paper for sale within five miles. Pasta, especially mac and cheese, was seriously depleted. So were beans. I didn't check rice but I suspect it was also very low. Bread ... random loaves on the shelves. Cheese and cold cuts were okay. Frozen food, too, I suspect, but all I bought was some ice cream. I did see one man with a cart full of frozen pizzas, so maybe not.

An odd experience.

With a bit of editing I could use your text in order to describe my visit to my neighbourhood Lidl. The Dutch are about as bad as the Australians and the Americans when it comes to hoarding toilet paper in the perceived shadow of apocalyptic death.

When in doubt, always pack a disposable undergarment in your bag. You will never know when you need one for whatever reasons!

I always wonder... are there people that actually generated quite a lot of waste as a result of this lifestyle? Not just undergarments, I won't go into details. Just... just the idea of someone throwing away their clothes 24/7/365 instead of sending them to the laundry.

Chinese civilization also invented toilet paper (such a coveted consumer product these days) and bank notes. Don't know if both were invented by the same person, but that would be fitting.
