    Workers rejected several contracts before this one, blocking Kellogg’s attempt to cut off newer and future employees from attaining full-time pay and benefits.

    Veteran workers told us they wouldn’t “sell our souls” and abandon their younger colleagues.

    :rosa-salute: hope this works out for them

    I keep losing track of who to boycott. I hate crossing a picket line but with all the strikes lately I honestly can't keep them straight.

      Yeah, it's hard to remember who's doing what. I accidentally bought Pop-Tarts the other day (plz don't gulag me).

      And if garbage's comment isn't enough for you, check out the BDS companies too.

        Perfect, I'll keep that book marked and try to remember to check it before I go shopping.

          yeah it's hard. between cutting out nabisco and kelloggs and nestle you're going to end up with a pretty healthy diet.

      Eventually we will all boycott every multinational company- but you're further along that trajectory than I am.

        Boycotting Amazon was my first big step. And while it does make shopping take a lot longer I actually end up finding better deals so at at least there's an upside (other then simply not supporting a corp that's basically evil in incarnate.)
