You can then either sell them for a profit or use them in facilities. This way you are not dependent on neighbors for them.

Thanks for that description, Steve. I did notice, just this am, the little question mark thingy that explains stuff. So I did read that there, but I honestly don't recall seeing those there before today. Maybe I failed to notice...
And yes, being able to order stuff is a godsend, since it is almost impossible to get what you need from less than attentive neighbors who keep sending ketchup and flour and stuff you can make yourself, but then won't send what you need in any kind of consistent manner. I sure wish the developers would give us some way to get ALL the things we need for production that we simply can't beg, plead, whimper or even arm twist our neighbors into giving us. I hate to think what my neighbors must think when every time I send a gift, I always tell them what I need in return. When I don't though, I not only don't get production necessities, but I also get bunnies, dogs, potted plants, and all that other unnecessary **** that was kinda cute back at the start, but after about 500 of them, really aren't.
I have 50+ neighbors, and maybe 5 that will actually send what I ask for. That kind of ratio makes depending on the neighbors a very annoying part of this game. I actually think it is kind of thoughtless and very close to rude of the developers to put us at the whimsical (edited the actual word I would prefer to use) nature of neighbors who don't seem to care.
