70% of the world's gum arabic which is a key ingredient in soft drinks and confectionery comes from #Sudan. Suppliers are being looted, extorted or having fees for export imposed by armed groups in the genocidal war in the country. Major corporations like #CocaCola #Pepsi #nestle and #Mars are implicated by acquiring these products.

Shame on you Safeway for deceptive sale prices!

Figi water at Safeway right now shows it's $6.99... but if you read the exceptionally tiny print below the price tag, it says you also have to buy a certain brand of pistachio nuts to get the deal. Otherwise you're likely getting charged $9.49.

Now Safeway normally runs a "deal" on Figi water every other month or so for $6.99, otherwise you pay $9.49 (although it has gone higher at $9.99)

The true price of the product is around $7

Lucky's sells Figi water normally for $6.99 and Target $7.99, although both have had sales discounting it further.

It's never truly on sale at Safeway. It's just overpriced and they make you jump through hoops sometimes to make you feel like you achieved a deal, when they're simply giving you the actual price.

This multi-combination buy is just shameful.

They do the same with Pepsi and Coke products.

This is why I avoid buying beverages at Safeway.

#Tesla wordt nu min of meer geboycot.
#Europa moet morgen zijn #defensie op orde gaan brengen. Dat betekent dat de lasten flink omhoog moeten.

Zijn we verder als bevolking dat al zo beu, dat we #Amerikaanse producten gaan mijden?
#McDonald's, #KFC, etc, #Coca-Cola #Pepsi. Of is dat te lastig?

We schijnen vooral veel Amerikaans gas te importeren. Gaan we eindelijk als een malle de #huurhuizen #isoleren? Ook dat zal de lasten in eerste instantie verhogen.
