I'm making a COVID-19 shopping list generator (covid.shopping) where you select a number of people, diet, the length of the quarantine and get a sharable shopping list.

What should I include?

    Start with a justification for sharing. Don't cause a run on any of the food suggestions people are giving.

    Be sure to allow large families. People can have over 20 kids, at least 4 generations in one house, or lots of cousins together. Some people even rent out rooms or live in a commune.
