Seems the soda and snack food industries stay operational as well. Got to have the snacks and soda available for the kids home from school not permitted to go outside and play and socialize. The discount staores like Family Dollar, Dollar General and Dollar Tree in my region are open as they do sell a few food and snack items.
Our Lowes has been busy the past few weeks, near full lot when average is about 1/3 full. Haven't stopped in but certain all are social distancing.
