Wondering when Canadian grocers are going to stop stocking American produce. No one is buying it!!!. The fruit flies buzz around a full display of over ripe tomatos. The cauliflower looks good but it's American so its not selling. The romaine lettuce from US is all brown. Just stop. #foodbasics

The motive, move the product. #FoodBasics in Ontario 🇨🇦 sure seems to try, but their definition of "🇨🇦ian" is, well… flexible. A 🍁 slapped on mostly 🇺🇸 goods, with profits heading south. #Loblaws, ever the patriot, just not for this country. Heinz, Ritz, and Kraft not 🇨🇦n at all. ❤️🇨🇦

Sneaky companies are so desperate to get their increasingly fuller warehouses to empty, many 🇨🇦n grocery chains are enabling, namely #FoodBasics owned by #MetroInc, and #NoFrills owned by #Loblaws. They show they don't care except, "Where's my Money!" ❤️🇨🇦

It is the corporations who are in charge of food prices, they really don't care if people go hungry -they care about their share price and shareholders -the wealthy among us. Stop #greedflation #foodprices are out of control. #Loblaws #Metro #Zehrs #FoodBasics #NoFrills #Superstore #Sobey
Corporate greed, particularly among grocery monopolies, is what’s really driving up food prices in Canada.

Let’s not forget the Coutu family (Metro/FoodBasics) and the Sobeys (Safeway/IGA+++).
The 3 families control a massive proportion of our groceries … better than the Waltons, I suppose, but not by much.

If you’ve followed me, you know I often call out 🇨🇦 grocery chains for mislabeling 🇺🇸n products. This week, #FoodBasics in Ontario is labeling Coke and Pepsi as 🇨🇦ian. Because when I think of Coke, the first thing that comes to mind is "What a great Canadian product!" ❤️🇨🇦

Sneakiness in 🇨🇦n stores is escalating, especially with misrepresented products. It’s disappointing to see processed or packaged goods falsely labeled as Canadian just to push sales. #FoodBasics, part of the #Metro group, has been especially notorious for this lately. ❤️🇨🇦

🇨🇦ian grocery chains are lying in flyers outright. This #FoodBasics ad (mainly in Ontario) misuses the 🍁 label. Kraft, Pepsi, Doritos & Frito-Lay are all 🇺🇸n. And that’s just one page, half their 🍁 labels are actually 🇺🇸n. "Processed/Produced in 🇨🇦" doesn't mean 🇨🇦ian product; it’s 🇺🇸n owned.
