Last trip to the grocery store I couldn’t find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I’m very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there’s even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I’d expected.

    As someone who isn’t a North American… What is a salad kit?

      A mix of greens in a bag, often with a pouch of dressing and a bag of nuts tossed in as well.

        Thank you… You know, that sounds mighty civilised.

          they’re pretty handy if you only want one salad, instead of eating it every day

          It’s not really cost effective versus buying separate but way cheaper than going to a salad place and it saves stocking space for different toppings and dressings. We started eating more salads because we dont have to eat the same kind daily.
