Rising grocery bills in the United States may have a deeper root than inflation alone. With reciprocal tariffs introduced by US President Donald Trump now taking hold across global trade, American consumers are starting to feel the pinch in everyday shopping and employees at retail giant Target are speaking out.

Some claim prices have nearly doubled within weeks, allegedly due to mounting import costs linked to Trump's controversial tariff strategy.
