A no-deal Brexit could make a bag more expensive.

According to the Irish Farmers Journal, we could see a hike in price for fish & chips here in Ireland if a no-deal Brexit happens.

The statement read;

"No-deal Brexit tariffs could push up the price of a bag of chips in your local takeaway. A WTO tariff rate of 11.5% would apply to all fresh potato imports from the UK. Last year Ireland imported over 41,000 tonnes of fresh and chilled potatoes from Britain and 9,000 tonnes from Northern Ireland, mainly for chipping. That’s the equivalent of 100 million bags of chips. The potatoes would require phytosanitary certificates from the UK Plant Health authorities, leading to delays and higher costs. This could leave the chipping market and takeaway fans exposed to price increases. Just 7,000 tonnes of Irish chipping potatoes were grown in 2018."

Ireland has imported the equivalent of 100,000,000 bags of chips. Madness!

We'd probably will still pay the higher prize because we do love our chips!
