    Right?!? I spend way too much time researching each product over actual use of the product. I had to deep dive to the level of “where is this product produced and who are their relatives and what is their mother’s maiden name??”

      There used to be an app or site called “buycott” or something and you could set what you were trying to avoid(example: avoiding human rights violating companies, avoiding specific companies, morals of certain companies, etc.), and you could scan an item and it would tell you. I used it for a tiny bit years ago but didn’t stick with it. Not sure if it’s still around.

        I dont know if I’m missing something, but I decided to look up nestle…

        I use coffee mate coffee creamer, but its just coffee creamer. I use Purina dog food because a family member works there, but theres like 100 other dog food brands on chewy, I could use.

        Idk what I’m supposed to be outraged about. What evil is there in coffee creamer and dog food? Am i missing something?

        I mean i hate that americans buy wasteful bottled water when they dont need to, but that makes me more angry at Americans. Theres tons of bottled water brands.
