Trader Joe’s, aldi, and small private stores from now on. Go fuck yourselves Kroeger.

If ethical reasons are a concern, you might want to avoid Trader Joe's as well on account of their union busting activities.

I hear you. I agree that union busting is bad. I support trader joes employees unionizing. I don't want their stores to close and those employees to be out of a job.

Any employer that's a union buster deserves to be boycotted until they close and something better comes along to fill the need (which it will do quickly).

They're also one of the companies trying to destroy the NLRB.

Curious as to what the union’s demands are. It’s my impression that Trader Joe’s treats their employees relatively well. I have multiple friends who work for them and are paid a living wage (in the Bay Area of all places) for working reasonable hours.

If a company genuinely cares about their employees, they'd support them unionizing.

Traitor Joe's is more like it

Aldi is so rad and they have the best chocolate.

[–] return2ozma@lemmy.world 6 points 7 hours ago

That Burnt Caramel Sea Salt though. The best!

Those chocolate peanut butter cups are crack. I'm sad that people at my location have realized that, because they are sold out a third of the time.
