Original: "Trump tomato tariffs could spell the end of free chips, salsa at restaurants" https://www. houstonpublicmedia.org/artic
New tariffs on Mexican tomatoes under the Trump administration could raise costs for restaurants, and industry observers warn the complimentary chips and salsa many US Mexican restaurants provide may disappear.
