Hi and welcome to the halfway point in your week. It's Nathan here with you again! |

Apparently some retailers in areas hard-hit by the delta variant are running short on toilet paper. |
Nonetheless, I don't think we're at risk of what happened early in the pandemic, when finding toilet paper was like striking oil. |
Why? One of the big reasons for last year's shortages was that Americans were consuming more toilet paper sold for use at home, while the not-so-thick stuff used in public bathrooms was actually easy to come by. |
This time around, many people are going to work and using the restroom in public places. |
