Table Sizing

I have a table 2 columns and 7 rows, I can set the column widths evenly when there is no text.
As I fill the cells up with text (BTW the text is smaller the cell column width) the column sizes readjust to an uneven size.
I can set the column widths again but it continues to re-size, is there anything that I can do to stop this. After I get this right i want to enclose this table in a flex grid.....is there another object that I can use, I want to create a price list, the tables are non responsive if I'm correct?

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry. the layout of HTML tables is very difficult to control. The width of the columns is determined by the content of the cells and relative to the full width of the table.
Even when using pixel sizes, most browsers do ignore this.
Also, HTML tables are not responsive.

Thanks Pablo is there an alternative to using tables? thats responsive, what I've built so far with the tables doesn't look too bad, not sure how it will look like using different browsers.
