Avocados
Imagine going to your favorite Mexican restaurant only to discover that their famous guacamole is now made with chickpeas instead of avocados. Well, this is an option many restaurant owners are considering due to the lack of avocado supply. Over 90% of the avocados on the American market are actually imported from Mexico. The reality is that the 25% tariff increase has caused the price of avos to surge, making this beloved item out of reach for many avo lovers. There was already a recent surge in wholesale prices from $75 to $85 per crate of 48 large avocados. This new tariff will make it even more expensive.
