Last trip to the grocery store I couldn't find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I'm very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there's even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I'd expected.

I have no bone to pick with whatever American company either, but geopolitics is happening. Even boycott aside I expect the value for cost of American products may go abruptly down shortly.

You can vote with your wallet. I don't consider politics in what I purchase. I buy based on quality of product, not location.

To get a better quality of product, you do have to pay more money to get the quality. Something can be a high price and be a good deal for the money. If the price exceeds the product quality, then don't buy, but also sometimes buying cheap is too expensive.
