I think that's just in your head
Dates as well, medjool variety often comes from the us iirc
Also Israel.
Accidentally bought Israeli potatoes the other day what kind of sick fuck grows potatoes in Israel and ships them to the uk fml 🤦♂️
Yeah just buy from a local farmer ifnyou have a chance, saves money, supports the farmer and short transports mean less enviromental pollition
Georgia is a Russian bitch at the moment (not Belarus tier but moving in that direction).
Also, according to this comment it's likely Georgia in US producing pecans, not Georgia in the Caucasus mountains.
That would be strange: why replace USA with another part of the USA?
Exactly. Georgia (US) was mistaken for Georgia (Europe).
US Georgian here. I can confirm we have a lot of pecans. I even have a pecan tree in my yard.
That's sad and show the overall quality of the list.
@LongestPath I wonder, why boycott everything? Should the people who suffer under #Trump be punished too? Seems like strange nationalist rhetoric to #BuyFromEU.
I mean I agree to boycott big business, especially big tech and everything owned by billionaires. It's just that a lot of European brands are owned by billionaires too who are just as bad, they just didn't explicitly get handed the keys to the government (yet).
As a democracy voted, the US voted for Trump - this is exactly what was signposted in Project 2025 & his campaign trails. We've another 4 years of this tariff bullshit, and his threats to annex Canada / Greenland, and him siding with Putin.
This isn't punishment, this is the EU not siding with the bullies. If you don't like the situation, use your power as a US voter and make your voice heard.
You've absolutely got a point about billionaires. None of them should be trusted. But right now the biggest threat are the billionaires controlling social media + tech, which are predominantly US based.
Do not draw parallelisms with Trump's newnazi regime and Europe. Here we do not allow big tech to enter government and make nazi salutes.
Would be really happy if Canada was a future EU member 🤞 but this doesn't instill much confidence https://www.politico.eu/article/canadians-want-join-european-union-will-never-happen-paula-pinho/ 😔
EU was created to prevent future wars in the European continent, and several countries like Morocco or Turkey were rejected on simple geographical ground.
It’s not a bandwagon where every guy scared of Trump can join.
Stop labeling Canada as a future member of the EU. It will never happen. The canadian population do not know that they will lose many things, such as their own currency. They just know that the EU is a free trade zone and a defense partnership.
You can be EU Member with your own currency 🤷♂️
They have to work to fulfill all requirements to adopt the Euro. Juncker in 17 “I have no intention of forcing countries to join the euro if they are not willing or not able to do so”. He softened the politics about the currency. There will be a President of the European Commission who will not be so kind and soft. Ursula von der Leyen did not talk about this politics at all.
Yes, boycott the united states to support... Iran?
This says more about weak schooling and low botanical knowledge as i thought.
