Mexico announces food, agri plan that could take country back to 1980s

Quick Summary:

Mexico's new president announced a new agriculture plan Tuesday that could make the country's food production and distribution look a lot more like it did in the 1980s, when meals in Mexico were dominated by tortillas, beans, instant coffee and cheap hot chocolate.

President Claudia Sheinbaum pledged Tuesday to revive those often shabby, limited government stores and continue efforts to achieve food sovereignty.

Four decades ago, the ingredients for those meals were often bought at government stores that stocked a few basic goods.
