    Excellent! Let’s also import more Mexican groceries! Fresh fruit and veg and pantry staples (spices, canned stuff, etc).

      Careful: a lot of “Product of Mexico” fruit and veggies are actually still American companies that control much of the supply chain and possibly even the farmland.

          Look at the label, dig into the company. Who’s the owner, CEO, where was it founded, etc.

          It’s not something easy to avoid. I just wanted to make people aware.
