If the government ever did go back to rationing (I don't think they will - this is more about possible dystopia fiction I guess) would it resemble WWII rationing or would the modern rules on diet cos into play? (Over processed diet drinks, low fat food etc)
And how would food allergies and intolerances be catered for?
Coeliac didst would be fine and diagnosed dairy/nut etc but for people like me with IBS and a very restricted diet - how would we cope?
I can see it being an administrative nightmare and it's been going round in my head to the point that I'm going to have to write it down to escape it (possibly a very crap short story as I am not a writer)
But I wondered what other people think?
And going on from that, hoarding and whether 'authorities' would 'raid' and confiscate......thinking about Anne Frank/Logan's Run/bladerunner & a weird film no-one else can remember about being pregnant illegally and escaping using a coat that was lead lined so the scanners couldn't pick up the pregnancy
Why have I posted in peppers? Because I imagine you guys have thought about it more than most
