And sugar?
*************
Sugar destroyed south Florida... we have aquatic death pouring out the east and west canal through Okechobee... and for what? To protect a business that is politically connected... The world price for sugar is $0.10 a pound ,, we pay $0.50 at retail or more... just google “world price sugar wholesale” and the first page is nothing but US sugar interests webpages giving excuses and apologies and telling us why their subsidies are really good for us.
We have been losing large corporations that use sugar to Mexico for a long time now ,, if you make breads , cakes or candies your plant is in Mexico where you can get ingredients at a fraction of the price here.
I’ve noticed the price of Oreo’s have fallen since moving production to Mexico. /sarcasm
