Buying more nonperishable food than normal every time we shop for the near future just seems sensible.

Basically preparing, gently, for the prospect of being unable to buy food or go anywhere where there are other people for a while. Best case scenario, nothing happens and we're a bit sheepish but have a really full pantry. Worst case scenario, no amount of prep makes a difference.
