FOOTNOTE: If China is your single source of specific spare parts for long-haul delivery vehicles, or refrigeration storage equipment, then disruptions to your food supply due to indirect distribution failures becomes a distinct possibility. Put another way ... to disrupt North America's food supply chain, a heavily tariffed China does not need to actually export edible items to North America, in order to trigger problems. All it needs is "made in China" components installed in strategic machinery needed to: ① safely store perishable food, and ② deliver fresh food from wholesale to local retailers.
