Friends: I will be in Bologna this weekend - what products should I purchase to avoid tariffs?

Friends, I will be in Bologna, Italy next month for a couple of days. Any tips or suggestions for things to do, places to eat and drink?

I'm partial to fried bologna sandwiches, with mustard.

Eat them there, of course.

Just remember that US customs won't be able to collect anything from you if it's already in your stomach.

Do you make sandwiches, sometimes?

Olive oil and wine! And maybe some good vinegar and a bit of cheese. That’s what I’d buy, anyway.

Are you in the market for a motorcycle or scooter?

If not, there's famous cheese and vinegar from nearby regions, and local mortadella

Bologna? Definitely a bunch of Ducatis.

This is a real tariff-buster

every time I see a motorcycle with a single arm design for the rear wheel I think "that wheel is absolutely going to fall off"

Bologna is the food Capital of Italy, there’s no bad food in the City.

Go to Cremeria Cavour for gelato. The best I’ve ever had anywhere. You won’t be able to bring it back though. (Maybe get a couple pounds of Parmesan vacuum-packed to bring back from Tamburi.)

Make sure to get it with pistachios.

It depends on the de minimis exception.

Well you can't bring the wine home so you'll just have to drink it

Bologna.

see if they’ve got any of those famed Bolognese semiconductors

Absolutely do the portico hike to the monastery. Great vibes city overall.

Instead of “to avoid tariffs” another way to say this would be “to shop local.” :) Always a good idea, regardless of a mad man in the White House.

I would just stay

Salami.
