Prices keep going up

Louise was shopping today. A few days ago, we had a nice size hamburger on a bun with juicy, red ripe tomato the size of the bun. It came from Mexico in a clear plastic container holding a pair. The price, $1 each.

Today while shopping, she noticed the price for each tomato was now $1.50. An increase! The Mexicans forgot they were to have absorbed the “tariff” tax. No juicy tomato today.
