I understand what you mean...Canada is not that different, there are many of the same similarities.
On one of our TV stations, the government has a commercial saying we should all have enough supplies to be on our own for 7 days. I know that used to be 3 days, maybe last year. I hope people are listening.
And I see you know exactly what I mean, you feel the same way about buying chicken or eggs in a restaurant. I think if more people knew how their grocery store meat was being raised, they would not buy it.
