Oh you import food from third world countries and it’s terrible? Who would have guessed.
Better keep pushing the farmers in the EU away for more of these great “trade deals”

But we absolutely need to shut down our farms to lower emissions so that we appear "green". It's totally worth to become food dependent on questionable countries for that.
Are these EU farmers that are being turned away growing tea and spices?
Some do, especially in Portugal and the Azores, for tea. And I grow my own peppers and chillies in cold Germany - why would we not be able to do so on an industrial scale?
Or you buy your tea from other first-world countries, such as Japan.
In the end, it is up to the consumer.
Local variants exist. But supermarkets are convenient and cheap.
