While I agree that we have a duty to avoid unethical brands whenever possible, there’s just no way to escape them all. I live in a poor country and I there’s a lot of “bad stuff” I have to buy just because it’s what I can affford at the moment.
There is no ethical consumption under capitalism.
Fully agreed. While it is morally positive to avoid especially unethical companies, ultimately it’s not possible in all cases. As long as you try to be moral in your day to day actions and you on some level push for things to be better, you’re not morally culpable for the failings of the current system.
This is true… but with some corporations it’s just a case of “fuck you in particular.”
If any of ya’ll have some KitKat alternatives I’m listening. Currently enjoying Kinder Bueno but am ready for something else.
If you’re in the US, KitKat here is made by Hershey.
But look at Nature Valley “Chocolate Peanut Butter Wafer Bars.” As someone who likes both, they’re not the same - they’re better, as long as you like peanut butter.
What about Canada? Is KitKat made by Nestle here?
Looks like it, unfortunately.
They also make Coffee Crisp, which is a shame, as I used to stock up on them whenever I visited.
No man, Coffee Crisp is my go to. I’m gonna have to find a new favourite :(
