Those will also increase in price with tariffs on countries that supply aluminum and the ingredients to make that slop

    Arizona tea i

    I tried this once out of curiosity when visiting a foreign food section in the supermarket. It is the most horrendous, sweet syrupy shit I've ever had. I'm surprised yankees call this "tea"

    The weak foreign palate cannot process the taste of freedom.

    Yeah but what does that translate to, a 50 cent price increase per can at most? The ingredients they use are already so cheap, I don't think caffeine addicts will care about such a small change for these types of beverages. Only real coffee snobs will suffer, but the average coffee drinker already drinks the cheap stuff, it won't be much more expensive.
