There was also a shortage of tomatoes over the new year holiday, caused by the Californian harvest finishing before the Florida harvest began.The shortage caused several fast food chains to stop offering tomatoes unless requested and supermarkets rationed their supplies.Prices for tomatoes in the Eastern United States reached prices several times the cost prior to the crop loss. Wholesale prices rose from around $7 for a 25 lb box to $30. During the shortage, more tomatoes were imported from Canada and Mexico.The total cost of the cold weather to Florida tomato producers was approximately $150 million, according to USDA calculations.The tomato shortage came to an end around late April 2010, as crops had recovered."@en }
