Across the U.S., tomatoes cost an average of $2.69 a pound, a record high, according to Federal Reserve<a href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/APU0000712311\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0figures<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>By comparison, coffee prices in April had risen 18.5% from the trailing 12 months, ground beef had jumped 19% and seafood was up 12%, labor data shows.<\/p>\n<p>Several factors are driving up tomato prices, David Branch, sector manager at the Wells Fargo Agri-Food Institute, told CBS News. The U.S. in July imposed a 17% tariff on Mexican tomatoes after withdrawing from a three-decade-old trade agreement that enabled duty-free tomato imports from Mexico. Although scuttling the deal benefited American farmers, consumers are feeling the pain.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. tariffs collected on tomatoes have surged from just $16,424 in 2024 to nearly $4.6 million, according to federal data. In 2025, nearly 90% of U.S. tomato imports came from Mexico, Branch noted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because the U.S. relies on Mexico for the majority of its tomato supply, any changes in trade policy can have a large impact,&#8221; added Brett Massimino, a Virginia Commonwealth University business professor.<\/p>\n<p>Bad weather and disease are also indirectly pushing up tomato prices by hurting production in Mexico and Florida, reducing supplies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s making it unique is the fact that there is a shortage of tomatoes and there isn&#8217;t a shortage of other produce,&#8221; said Phillip Coles, a professor of supply chain management at Lehigh University.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Food industry analyst Phil Lempert, known as the SupermarketGuru, also said the\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a

fueling higher tomato costs through higher oil prices. &#8220;Because of the Iran war, the price of transporting tomatoes is more expensive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tomatoes are typically shipped on refrigerated trucks that require more diesel to power both the vehicles and the refrigerators housing the tomatoes, he noted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you have a major rise in a core cost component, it winds up having a big impact in the end,&#8221; Massimino told CBS News. &#8220;It&#8217;s a weird situation that all these things are coming together at once.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section
