consider the following

magically, all the worlds food supplies, disappear

all currently existing food stocks are left untouched

new food sources can largely not be implemented due to some crop disease or something

how long will current food stocks last, and what is (in your opinion) the most likely outcome of events

1.Not very long.
2.Everybody will die.

Have you never experienced flooding of transport routes or natural disasters?

Every supermarket clears out of basics in a few days.

I have seen a store picked clean in ~3 hours, with a 12 hour severe T-storm warning (the storm the week before shut things down for ~2.5 days so people were on edge, and was a pain because nobody had planned ahead). I can't see them lasting a whole day.

It is sad how disaster prep seems to only happen after the disaster, then get dismantled from lack of use the day before then next disaster.

Roving bands of marauders leaving congested population centers and heading out into more rural areas in search of food, where they will become my problem, and unfortunately, also a viable food source despite the massive threat they'd pose.

Everyone would be viewed as an inherent extreme liability. Groups would fall apart easily and people would readily be removed if they did not possess utility.

Some people would be trying to fix the problems. They might not get far because most people would be trying to survive, and everyone would want and need resources.

End result, most of us die. Some people run off to hide in underground cities built in various locations, mostly mountains.
