The drama is pretty funny. How do you think these things happened a couple of decades ago? How do you think produce is picked in Europe? Do they send all of the Syrians out to the fields?

Etc. As if these tariffs will shut off all trade anyway. But even if it did, isn't it better for the environment if we all eat seasonally and buy less plastic crap from China? Just calm down.

So expensive. Do you think you will have time to do it at your new factory job?

Get ready to grow vegetables in your balcony or terrace if you don’t have a yard.


I’ve had gardens before and it never really pencils out for us. We live in the Pacific NW on a city lot. The cost of watering through summer is just way too expensive. However we do a local CSA from June-October and it’s fabulous, seasonal and supports a local farm. More costly than the cheapest grocery store produce but cheaper than the farmers market or growing myself.

Certainly, coffee has increased. Bell peppers, cucumbers, avocados have increased.
Most fruit and veg will go up. It’s a shame, because I imagine they aim to cut food stamps and so it will be very difficult to feed people a healthy diet. Ultra processed foods can be manufactured cheaply and corn still subsidized. Make America fat and unhealthy


Had bought so much coffee earlier in the year but for some reason already getting low, thought it would have lasted until at least the fall when hopefully*something* not sure what will change and some geniu will talk sense into this Orange.

A better post would be items not affected by the tariffs.

Winter vegetables include potatoes and squash.

Again the question is WHY
- with a cigarette tax or gas tax, we know where that money is going. With this 25% + tax on food, where is the money going?? Our giver bent services are being drastically reduced, so it’s not like we are getting more. We are paying more and getting less.

Ever heard of canning and freezing?


Canned bananas and frozen eggs. My favorites.


You can freeze scrambled eggs, freeze dry eggs, or water glass whole fresh eggs in Lyme. You can also pickle them. Banana can be canned or sliced and frozen or dried and stored. You can even use the peels as fertilizer for the garden.

Ewwww. I really hope you hope you sign up to bring plates and napkins rather than food to a potluck.

This is all so stupid and completely unnecessary! We are talking about canning bananas and pickling eggs because idiots voted in a rage toddler, ketamine junkie and couch fetish creep into the White House.
