The Walking Dead Season 6: 10 Questions We’re Asking After ‘Knots Untie'

5. Will The Food Problem Escalate?

Gregory alluded to a very important point when discussing the state of Alexandria with Maggie. It's all well and good having guns, it's all well and good having walls to hide behind, but without food, they have nothing. Food, in case you didn't realise, keeps people alive and content. A shortage could mean total self-destruction. Rick and the group are going on their mission to eliminate Negan, and have been 'paid' up front with a large amount of supplies, but if they can't finish off Negan, what happens next? Will Hilltop demand the supplies back? Even if they did, it's unlikely they'll reclaim their wares, but it would look very likely that trade between Hilltop and Alexandria could cease. Will the food problem flare up once again?
