$15 unknown branded rice bag is now $35 - $50. Desi grocery chains are literally looting Telugu folks in the U.S.
Limiting 1 bag per person is reasonable, but why they have to double the price?? pic.twitter.com/SiOcal3MY8

At the Indian store today for spices, I checked to see if rice prices went up due to the export ban.

I was shocked to see this.
Limits on quantities.
Stock up on your staples NOW. Other countries are looking at the ban on rice and are stock piling. pic.twitter.com/kns8AtoQ3E
