From beer to barley: How Trump's tariff threat could affect your wallet
Briefly

"Trump said last week he would slap a 25 percent tariff on goods from Mexico and Canada if they didn't stop the flow of migrants and the deadly opioid fentanyl over their borders."
"Tariffs are basically a tax on foreign goods; importers probably would have to raise their prices to compensate for the increased costs."
"Mexico supplies around half of America's imported fruit and two-thirds of imported vegetables, in dollar terms - tomatoes, berries, bell peppers, cucumbers."
"A 25 percent tariff could push up the price of brands such as Modelo Especial and Corona between 4 and 12 percent, according to a study."
