What's your list of banned brands? (lemmy.ca)

What brands do you avoid at all cost? I don't keep up with the news all that much, and many of the reasons to avoid something don't make it there anyway. So I'm asking here to make a big list of things to avoid. It could be anything from bad security practices to really frustrating packaging. Working as a cashier myself, I definitely know there are plenty of brands I avoid purely on the basis that their product is a pain to stock.

On the flip side, what's the alternative? If you avoid Pepsi, for example, what do you turn to instead?

Personally I don’t think I’ve seen sugar-free condensed milk. Not sure how you could make it.

it's everywhere except vietnamese coffee places.

I guess coconut milk would work. For dairy milk though unsweetened≠sugar free. Looks like there are plenty of unsweetened condensed milks, but I don't see any that are sugar free. Gotta get rid of the lactose for that.
