US Tariffs Threaten Italian Pasta Availability Amidst Trade Dispute
A proposed 107% tariff on Italian pasta is set to dramatically impact its availability in American grocery stores. Analysts warn that these tariffs could either double prices for consumers or result in a shortage of beloved Italian brands, with up to 13 major pasta names at risk of vanishing from shelves. The tariffs, viewed as a response to alleged unfair trade practices, have prompted outcry from consumers and manufacturers alike, with industry leaders pleading for a reversal to avoid significant price hikes and the loss of a cultural staple in American dining.
