Trump Exempts 200+ Food Items From Tariffs as Inflation Pressure Mounts

The broad scope — including coffee, beef, cocoa, bananas, oranges, tomatoes, tea, fruit juice, spices, and fertilizers — reflected the administration's acknowledgment that tariff-driven food inflation was a top voter concern. Experts cautioned retail price relief would take months to materialize.
