TIL Desk/World/Houston/ As many in the US state of Texas experience power outage, the state is now running out of food with the disruption of supply chain, local media has reported.
A Newspaper published a story on Wednesday saying that across the state, people are using up supplies they had stockpiled and losing more as items start to spoil in dark refrigerators.
With grocery stores across the state shuttered for power outage, supermarkets that remain open have seen supplies dwindle.
In a local H.E.B. supermarket, empty shelves were seen on Wednesday in the bottled water section. Bread and canned food were also in short supply as people tried their luck to stockpile in the shop that stayed open.
In the state capital of Austin, a local resident told that a Target supermarket was completely out of food on Wednesday, with no sign of additional shipments arriving or employees restocking shelves.
