Unfortunately, USDA/FNS did not expect such an increase when they made the food purchases for the quarter. That means a food shortage in every warehouse across the country. It has been particularly frustrating to have our program increase by about 25 percent and not be able to offer all the products to our clientele. There was a shortage of ground beef and frozen chicken from about November through March. It’s better now, but we still see a shortage of the most popular juices, orange and apple. We continue to work diligently, checking the catalog daily to add products to our orders as they become available, but so have other programs nationally. It’s all about timing, it seems. We continue to work on adding fro- zen pork chops to the food package. The survey results have been tabulated and the next step is for FNS to put it out to bid. It is a long process, but in the end it will be worth the wait. There was not one negative comment to our survey, so we can expect to see the pork within a year. I am still trying to get the flour or whole grain tortilla added to the food package, but it is a struggle to be heard at times. I will bring my request to the national board in June when we attend the NAFDPIR (National Association of Food Distribution Programs on Indian Reserva- tions) conference once again and will try to gain support from other programs.
