Last trip to the grocery store I couldn’t find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I’m very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there’s even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I’d expected.

    Well, if there’s tariffs, the price of US imports goes up and the quality doesn’t, so even if (for instance) you don’t care about other people at all it’s not a good choice. Best to get ready.

      Am I not allowed to choose to spend my own cash on higher priced import items if that’s what I choose to do?

        I’m a random person on the internet. I don’t make rules at all.

        I can say that that would be irrational, if there’s a similar quality item for less. Unless you actually just prefer the US to Canada, in which case I question your trustworthiness as a fellow citizen.

          Are you demanding nationalism?

              The highest form of being a patriot is dissent.

                Cool. I don’t know what you’re arguing for exactly. If you just want a fight with somebody about something, I have better things to do.

                  If you’re not catching on to the point, then I’ll leave it that, no animosity.
