The news around the COVID-19 outbreak is constantly changing, but information about food safety and how to keep yourself healthy is crucial right now. Here is a comprehensive list on the foods you should be stocking up on during this period of social distancing, as well as information about your local grocery stores’ changing hours, an explanation of “no-contact delivery,” and a guide on how to help your community and its businesses throughout closures.

As the global coronavirus pandemic drags on, the food industry continues to be greatly affected. Certain state and city regulations have forced many outposts to shut their doors and become delivery-only, while some have opted to do so on their own to keep employees and customers safe.

Below, we've listed changes that some restaurant chains have made in response to global coronavirus outbreak. Again, this can vary by location (for instance, in some places, all restaurants are carry-out only) and is subject to change, though we will update as often as we can. You can find information on fast food restaurants here and grocery stores here.
