So one would think between the hoarders larder being full and the lack of commercial demand there should be more than enough to go around. The companies that package for commercial use should be able to switch to some sort of retail packaging.

It just does not compute that the system has not been able to "recover" to a steady state.....(based on my limited knowledge how it works).
I hope you are right and that the situation will be resolved soon. We are one of the ones who did not stock up enough. Didn't realize there would be a supply problem. My amazon.com order of 250 lunch napkins got cancelled. I did manage to get 8 boxes of kleenex...
