Suggested replacement: Some Amazon Prime deliveries are delayed & it’s running out of household staples

Not a huge deal as if you read the article it's apparent right away but I was very confused by the headline alone as I couldn't figure out how Amazon used "staples" or why there would be an uptick in that particular product.

Yes, the original title was confusing and misleading; the offered up title replacement summarized the article better. The regime should really reinstate it :(
