Fox News
U.S. port strikes prompted panic buying of food and other goods nationwide, according to social media trends.
The strike, which has been halted after workers reached a tentative agreement on a 62% wage increase, blocked some containers of food and other goods from entering the country, causing some Americans to take to TikTok to document their shopping experiences.
"Panic buying begins in Virginia amid the port shutdown," said TikTok user @nicolewilliams559 who filmed the long line at her local grocery store. "BJ's Wholesale almost out of toilet paper and water as of 10 a.m."
