@kzwa.104.9: Due to avian flu, rising demand, and continuous supply chain interruptions, grocery costs have skyrocketed. The cost of goods is expected to rise, though, and broad tariffs may soon make it unfeasible to keep some fundamental foods on store shelves. According to a Yale Budget Lab research, fresh produce costs might increase by more than 5% as a result of increased U.S. taxes on imports from nations including China, Mexico, and Canada. Louisiana and American households may lose thousands. According to Food & Wine: The average household could lose up to $4,900 in 2025 as a result of trade-driven price increases if they don't alter their purchasing habits. Purchasing food in bulk, whether or not there are tariffs, is a wise way to save money. Residents of Louisiana are encouraged to review the list below and start stockpiling in case tariffs cause supermarket costs to skyrocket. What Items Should Louisiana Residents Stock-up On? Coffee Canned Goods Sugar Seafood Alcoholic Beverages Extra Virgin Olive Oil Vanilla Nuts Rice Chocolate Chips Maple Syrup So if you are trying to save a little money this year, and have a few extra bucks id say its a good idea to add a few extra things into you grocery cart to just be safe.
