Edit: I’m on mobile and can’t tell if this uploaded blurry or not (looks kinda rough to me). Here’s the source.
Not sure this is correct though. Of course all these companies are multinationals, but not all of these are American companies. For example Unilever is British and Nestle is Swiss (have not checked them all).
Right, I think it’s maybe representing the 20 highest grossing food brands in the US, whether they’re US companies or not.
However Nestlé has a whole host of reasons for their own boycott, straight evil stuff they are directly responsible for.
It was low res. Thanks for the link. It was high res there 😊
As a Canadian in this shit for a month, go for it!!! My last groceries contained 0% products from USA, if it’s doable for us Canadian, you can do it too! And don’t forget to cancel netflix, disney+, prime, etc.
I’m an American and I appreciate your effort

Economic death to America!
Fuck Coca-Cola drink Irn Bru!
Made in Scotland from GIRDERS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irn-Bru
lol
“Originally selling it as Iron Brew, the drink’s makers, A.G. Barr, were forced to change the name of the drink in 1946 following a change in the law that stipulated that the marketing of products be “literally true”. As the drink did not contain much iron, nor was it brewed”
“The brand also has its own tartan”
I would’ve agreed with you a decade or two ago, but they changed the recipe.
I would if I could
I sell this in my store in Canada.
I would love an Irn Bru sugar version. I don’t like the taste of Aspartame
Irn Bru 1901 is that - and it’s caffeine free. The only irn bru I’ll drink now.
As an American I support this action.
Bro, me too, fuck everything about trump, and right now, fuck us. I’m not buying shit unless I have to. Except from local shops.
I’ve felt this way since Mango Mussolini’s first term.
I feel bad that as consumers at best we label all under Trump’s banner, at worst we don’t have the ability to punish only the red states like government tariffs can do
Stay strong
Same, the only language Trump Co. speak is money, gotta hit em where it hurts.
Fuck us up, y’all!
Sincerely,
Ashamed American
Another terrible situation like Brexit - where the voices of many reasonable people are ignored. Feel free to come to Europe any time

In what way exactly is the current administration better?
Kind of ironic that the people joined facebook groups for that…
Change the system from within.
Make due with the tools you have at hand.
Facebook makes a certain amount of money per person. It’s probably not that high.
If they can easily gather and find simple quick replacements for US goods that probably affects the US economy more.
I don’t use Facebook for this myself, but have made lots of changes effectively now moving large sums of money from US companies to EU equivalents. There are still some stuff left, but most things are changed.
I think that has a bigger effect and is a lot easier
I imagine that would be very easy, outside of software and digital services.
Even in Canada I’ve nearly managed.
Why outside those services? You really think it’s not possible yet?
I mean, I’m close, but I’m tech savvy and willing to just not be on the same social media platforms as other people. Even then, if I want to stream something without sailing the high seas non-American options are limited, although that of course might be different in Europe.
Fun fact, a lot of “American” stuff is filmed in Canada anyway.
Well, if content comes from Canada it’s just a question of server hosting. You refer to Netflix and co? That’s a wip everywhere I guess https://www.reddit.com/r/newfoundland/s/jkna5XzvxH
I wish people would boycott spending on the big holidays. That’ll hurt the oligarchs the most.
Big holidays? America will be in a recession by Easter at this rate
I’m not saying I want this to happen, but it might just be more effective to have a foreign nation’s intelligence service wipe out Elon Musk . I mean, I don’t want him to die or anything, but if you could just do a Jimmy Hoffa and make sure that nobody ever finds his remains that would be just swell 
Wasn’t he supposed to be going to Mars anyway?
If you want, Moscow is the Mars I hope he ends up abandoned on the planet with no one to talk to except Matt Damon
Take a page from China and remind him who’s the boss. When was the last time you heard of Jack Ma?
“Calls for Europe to stop eating garbage food like Americans.” Sounds like a good idea to me.
We have our own garbage food. If you don’t go to McDonald’s or Burger King, you can go to Hesburger or whatever else your region has. Admittedly still inspired by American garbage food, but profits European companies.
Hesburger? Interesting, I’ll have to look that up, haven’t heard of it.
Finland and Baltics mostly. It’s the biggest chain here in Estonia by locations (unless you count gas stations), but probably 2nd in popularity because McDonald’s seems more popular. Idk if they put crack on their fries or what, but it’s just not comparable.
Close, copious amounts of sugar
I’m boycotting everything. Shopping local if I have to have something. Cash only. I only carry my bank card and one credit card for emergencies.
Unfortunately there’s hardly any American product I use here in Malaysia, so I can’t make any sort of impact.
The only American things I use are various software applications I need for work (and no, as an employee I can’t simply switch to FOSS).
Petition your governments to drop IP laws for US tech companies like Doctorow is encouraging. If the US isn’t going to honor trade agreements, hit us right in our gold plated scrotum.
