What are they smoking at Smuckers? Even if their crappy sugar syrup jam was free I’d buy real European jam made from actual strawberries instead.
Delusional Americans…

Bonne Maman tastes a thousand times better than Smucker's. Smucker's wouldn't need tariffs if their product tasted good.
the lobby group for JM Smucker and other big food manufacturers warned against "overly broad and sweeping tariffs" that might end up making it more expensive to import ingredients like cocoa, which are not made in the US.
"I don't necessarily want the current administration to say, well, we'll impose a tariff," Tom Madrecki, the group's vice president of supply chain resiliency, said at a recent forum about tariffs, hosted by Farmers for Free Trade.
"It's this careful balance between yes, I want you to take an America First trade policy and action to counter unfair trade policies abroad... but maybe not quite in that way."
If you're going to demand tariffs that increase prices to harm competition but not yourself, go fuck yourselves. The only thing that benefits is the company's profit margins, while consumers are forced to pay more because you raise your own prices to match.
Vanilla too, since growing the vanilla orchid is pretty difficult as it is,
