Secretary of Agriculture Anderson told the Advertising Federation of America that the United States and world face food shortages. He said America cannot feed the world, urges honest, clear messaging about consumption, and notes stockpiles are being drawn down as Americans eat into meat, poultry, eggs, sugar, lard, and canned goods.
