I hope everyone living in or around LA is okay? I've been seeing the footage on FB from various folks who live out there, and it's bad. And seemingly random, one on side of the street the house burned down and on another, it's fine. Malibu and Pasadena - two beautiful areas, have been attacked by wild fires, as has Modesto.

Yes, Nestle has a bad corporate history. I was boycotting them in the 20th Century, now I don't use any of their products - because gluten intolerant and I don't like them.

In the 20th - they were selling baby formula that was causing infant deaths in Africa or something like that? I can't remember. We researched it for a moot UN thing in school - and the country I was assigned was trying to get Nestle banned and sanctions against them.

There's so many things to boycott, it's hard to keep track.

I stopped bothering somewhere in the 90s, when I realized it is kind of pointless? It only works if EVERYONE or 80% does it, and that's not happening. It's kind of like the mask thing.

It just makes me feel better not to give them my money.
