A food product that has to be imported into a country for that country’s consumption most often becomes __________.a. unattainable
b. exotic
c. more expensive
d. less expensive

Answers

The correct answer is - c. more expensive.

- the product is not native, so it is seen as something exotic in most of the cases.

- the shipping costs can influence the price greatly, depending from how far away that product is delivered.

- most of the countries do require some amount of money for products getting through their borders, so that can up the price as well.
c. more expensive: because they'd have to pay the price of the food product, plus how much shipping costs.
