Various confectionery, biscuits, pastries and bread added to the list of Taiwanese items currently listed as ‘imports suspended’ Report of the ban emerged with US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi expected to land in Taiwan on Tuesday night Mainland China suspended imports from hundreds of Taiwanese food factories ahead of a possible stopover on the island by US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
China’s General Administration of Customs added various confectionery, biscuits, pastries and bread to the list of items currently listed as “imports suspended” on its official website.
The Taipei-based United Daily News reported that the ban was imposed on Monday night.
This is because the main buyers of Taiwan's agricultural products and food are China. And the fruits from Taiwan. Every time there is a conflict we stop buying fruit. The Taiwanese government has to spend money to buy fruit they don't need. Otherwise the fruit farmers would have to go bankrupt.

He's trying to take away something his citizens want, tasty Taiwanese pastries that are popular in Chinese culture. China is their biggest trading partner, but I doubt this will affect Taiwan at all, it's more of a softpower play. The pastries are imports of Taiwanese culture, microchips aren't.
