I'm trying to merge two tables together. One is a customer list and another is a product list. I want to combine the two and expand the customer list with the product list. How would I do this in power query.

Customer List
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Customer[/TD]
[TD]Product List[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Customer1[/TD]
[TD]Food[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Customer 2[/TD]
[TD]Consumer[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Product List
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Product List[/TD]
[TD]Product[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 64"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 64"]Food[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[TD]Product 1[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 64"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 64"]Food[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[TD]Product 2[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 64"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 64"]Consumer[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[TD]Product 3[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 64"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 64"]Consumer[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[TD]Product 4[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 64"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 64"]Consumer[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[TD]Product 5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 64"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 64"]Consumer[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[TD]Product 6[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Result

Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
I'm not familar with power query: I assume it will be the same though as normal Excel queries.

Code:
SELECT C.Customer, C.[Product List], P.Product
FROM Customer_List C, Product_List P
WHERE C.[Product List] = P.[Product List]
which can also be written as
Code:
SELECT C.Customer, C.[Product List], P.Product
FROM Customer_List C INNER JOIN Product_List P ON C.[Product List] = P.[Product List]

try

Code:
[SIZE=1]let
    Source = Table.NestedJoin(Table10,{"Product List"},Table11,{"Product List"},"Table11",JoinKind.LeftOuter),
    #"Expanded Table11" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Source, "Table11", {"Product"}, {"Product"})
in
    #"Expanded Table11"[/SIZE]
