I always check my groceries before buying US products. Never again.

[-] albbi@piefed.ca 18 points 4 months ago

What I want is for my grocery store do to that work for me and not stock US products.

I wish! The bastards keep selling more US products. But I think that's because not enough people care or believe boycotts work miracles. What's worse is that some stores put fake labels that make it seem Canadian.

@ZiggyTheZygote @OutForARip Good morning, over Here in Germany we use the detrumpify yourself app from france. Whats the system you use to avoid US products in Canada?
Greetings and have a wonderful day.

Detrumpify? That is brilliant! Does it include all European countries? I haven't heard of an app yet here, maybe there is one, if not, there should be. I use an app called "no thanks" but that's for another kind of boycott.

@ZiggyTheZygote the app ist for every country. I dont know If its in your App Store over there. At the Website you could load it too. detrumpez-vous.com
Known Barcodes show If a product comes from the US, to valid unknown Codes IT needs the Community to load them Up and do the Research of the producer who made the product and also fill the informations to the database. If you upload a product it get Maximum 48 hours to get checked. Then its in the database so every user see the informations.
