Any food Tariffs are bad for our Country. Mexico farmers feed the USA. (Canada, economic)

This goes with Nutty Dons opinion.

I thought of this today. I'm really getting hungry for some good vegetables. Most of them come from Mexico.

if Monsanto made a contract with your farm to sell corn to it- and now its too much $$$ to export to mexico for tortillas - you now are a broke farmer - we cannot eat corn fritters 24-7-- we do NOT make everything like we used to -- so until harvest ??

There are hundreds of more items that will cost a lot more.

20% tariff will hurt all Americans. There is no way to bring these specific jobs back to the USA. Our weather from October to March every year is to cold to get the job done.

ridiculous list, need to see some cites.
most of the items on your list aren't even exported in quantity from mexico.
Oatmeal?

I keep trying to convince California to produce avocado crops, but they say it isn't possible.

Avacados are also grown in CA and FL as well as many south and central American countries and Australia. Mexico's loss means other countries gain. BTW, avocado growing in Mexico is so profitable that the drug cartel are getting into the business.

CA used to be the major supplier of avacados in the U.S. There are still hundreds of acres of avacado trees in orange and San Diego counties.
