Panic buying has ensued in the United States after India imposed a rice ban.
Some stores in America are now selling 20-pound bags of rice for $50 when they previously cost just $16. There is also rationing occurring as supplies dwindle due to soaring demand.
Videos shared across social media over the weekend show Indians standing in very long lines in states like Texas, Michigan, Alabama, New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois, and California hoping to grab a bag of rice before they all run out.
