Trump tomato tariffs threaten free chips and salsa

Original: Trump tomato tariffs could spell the end of free chips and salsa at restaurants

New tariffs on Mexican tomatoes pushed by the Trump administration could drive up costs for US restaurants, and some outlets warn the complimentary chips and salsa traditionally offered to diners may disappear. Most tomatoes sold in the United States are imported from Mexico, so restaurateurs say price increases could force them to cut the free appetizer or raise menu prices.

Why now: Fresh tariff policy on Mexican tomatoes is raising concerns about higher food costs for restaurants and consumers.
