The coronavirus pandemic has reportedly caused shortages on various items as people stock up on supplies as they shelter in their homes. This has created an increased demand for food items that can be stored for long periods of time without going bad.

During the month of March, Americans bought $275 million worth of frozen pizza, Adweek reports. This is reportedly an increase of 92 percent from the same time period the previous year (some brands have reported increased sales of as much as 190 percent).

According to Adweek, the increase in sales of frozen pizza is comparable to the recent rush of toilet paper. As news of the coronavirus and the impending shutdowns broke, Americans apparently stocked up on toilet paper, causing an increase in sales of about 104 percent.

Ashley Lind, director of demand sciences at Conagra Brands which makes popular frozen pizza Celeste Pizza, told the outlet, Its not hard to imagine that many people are looking for easy, convenient solutions that are also crowd-pleasing family favorites. Also, when living in uncertain timesas many of us are right nowwere seeing a rise in consumers turning to much-loved comfort foods. Frozen pizza checks a lot of these boxes for consumers.

The increased demand has caused some stores to struggle to keep the freezer section stocked.

A spokesperson for Newmans Own maker told Adweek that it doesnt expect any major interruptions in supply in the near term, they did point that the companys supply chain is stretched and that the supply chains supply chain is also stretched.

There should be a law against Frozen pizza: It's probably the worst kind of food that exist.
I'd rather eat Spagetti with ketchup. Discusting, but still better than frozen pizza.

Mama Celeste pizzas aren't even that good considering how small they are. They used to be bigger years ago.
