Part of the reason is UK ran out of tomatoes, peppers etc. EU didn't have the same issues. Source: live in UK

  But the core reason for those shortages were poor weather in Spain etc where the produce is grown, I'd be surprised if the EU didn't have the same issues. I wouldn't be surprised if those countries such as Spain reduced the amount available for export so that they can meet demand for local markets though, but capitalism would dictate that they sell to the highest bidder instead.
