What's your list of banned brands?
What's your list of banned brands?
What brands do you avoid at all cost? I don't keep up with the news all that much, and many of the reasons to avoid something don't make it there anyway. So I'm asking here to make a big list of things to avoid. It could be anything from bad security practices to really frustrating packaging. Working as a cashier myself, I definitely know there are plenty of brands I avoid purely on the basis that their product is a pain to stock.
On the flip side, what's the alternative? If you avoid Pepsi, for example, what do you turn to instead?
You're viewing a single thread.
- Nestle (not easy because the branding is not always obvious, but once you have it memorized it’s no problem)
- Tesla (easy because the cars are shit anyways)
- Müller (Luxembourg dairy product company that has close ties to the German fascist party AfD. Relatively easy but they do have some subbrands that are not obvious) [EDIT: more info]
I don't want to ask this, excuse I like my yoghurt, but can you tell me more about the Muller-AfD link?
The owner of the company is regularly meeting with Alice Weidel (one of the lead members) and says openly that he is interested in her party’s political views.
Well, I can live without yoghurt
You can still buy it from other companies though. Gotta pick the least bad ones.
I've been boycotting muller for a while kow because they had the most obnoxious ad imaginable and this was before I couldn't take it any more and went for blockers.
Although I must admit part of me hopes that if we ever do go full cyberpunk that there will be a huge müller pyramid full of cows.
Do you have a link to the story about Müller and connection to AFD, im asking because i didnt know that.
Here is one https://www.zdf.de/nachrichten/politik/deutschland/mueller-milch-milliardaer-afd-weidel-treffen-100.html
It was in the news beginning of this year.
Thank you.
Damn, I used to like their crunch corners.
