Sugar and flour sale limits stay in Montana plan
Montana retains federal limits on sugar and flour sales with 49 pounds of flour per purchase and tiered sugar quantities for consumers. Wholesale sugar shipments to retailers are capped and plans urge restrained advertising and distribution to prevent hoarding, with state officials noting temporary deviations to ease public needs. The policy mirrors federal aims, but Montana allows hotels and restaurants a week’s supply of flour and sugar at a time under supervision.
