Almond Butter, the Staple of the Modern Diet
Almond butter, a spread of creamy, nutty goodness, has been a mainstay in many a breakfast routine. But, as we all know, with great power comes great responsibility. And, it turns out, great demand.
Causes of the Shortage
- Global supply chain issues: Almond trees are like that one friend who always flake out, but always come back.
- Over-reliance on Amazon: Because who needs human interaction when you have two-day shipping and 1-Click ordering?
- Climate Change: Almond trees are like those hipsters who won't adapt to the changing seasons.
