food growing is also patriotic. People had victory garden during WWII and they accounted for 1/3 of the fresh food eaten in the US. Grow a victory garden!

My BIL sends us our favorite foie gras from France, our home country: the good mi-cuit, much tastier than anything you can find here.

What said that?


Thank you for asking -- I've seen it kicking around the internet and never really dug into the citation before. I can't find a direct initial source, but I think this blog post: https://www.theparachutemedia.com/politics-activism/no-ethical-consumption-under-capitalism-shopping-habits-coralyn-maguigad and this Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/3gh73r/where_does_there_is_no_such_thing_as_ethical/ are interesting takes (although of course not exactly quality academic sources lol). I definitely am unconvinced that there's ethical consumption under communism in the forms it currently functions in the world too.

Almond milk is a crime.


That’s now how a drought works.

I only buy fruit and veggies from US, Mexico and Canada. The exception being bananas, it sure where they come from.

What on earth, OP, is that a parody post? Or are you only eating wild seeds gathered in your backyard and if so, why are you impressing native squirrels?

NP. Of course it’s parody or tongue in cheek.

I use a keurig. Not through snobbery but sheer convenience.


Clearly not snobbery b.c that thing makes gross coffee.


The real crime here is the PP who does like avocados.

My strawberries taste sweeter knowing they are picked by migrant children.
