  I think supermarkets would be wiped out very quickly by panic buying. But all the stuff does not dissapearing just because people become zombies - I’d expect raiding empty houses to be the way to go.

  I think the things that would be in short supply are primarily fresh foods. Probably heading to an area with market gardens and orchards would be the best bet. Without the farmers there would not be much reliable harvest, but there should be a decent amount of self-seeded vegetables and fruit to pick, plus all of the requirements to create an area to grow more.

    I saw public fruit tree foraging maps online and even posted them in the other place. Good luck remembering and making it safely that far tho.

    I’d try to make vertical gardens with the highest yielding stuff possible but subsistence farming is incredibly hard

  Of course but a lot of perishable food will spoil, a lot will be taken by competing groups, and each time going out for supplies or in an enclosed building is a risk
