"A perfect storm of:

• ICE raids and threats causing farmworker shortages

• Egg prices skyrocketing from bird flu, with no end in sight

• 25% tariffs on Mexico, which supplied 63% of our vegetable imports and 47% of our fruit & nut imports in 2023

RIP grocery budgets"

~ Adam Carlson quoted by Greg Dworkin
