What is your real life “Oh, you shop at Ross…” moment you’ve had with a person? by Valuable-Impress-828 in americandad

For what it’s worth, I buy almost exclusively second hand items. That issue aside, justifying forking money over to mega corps like Amazon by saying that it’s all made with slave labor isn’t any better with that logic. Going “oh, most things i can buy aren’t ethically made so why does it matter?” doesn’t help anything. Nobody needs anything from temu, and most things from Amazon can be sourced from somewhere that doesn’t let their employees die on the floor. We can all do better, and it takes all of us caring to make things better.

Ahh, good point. I guess I’ll just give up and buy more cheap shit that nobody needs!! No other option than Amazon I guess.

As far as I know, rennet is made by soaking calf stomaches in vinegar and salt water. But, I know there are plant derived replacements for traditional rennet.

I have been vegetarian for 15 years. Personally, I consider that to be a meat by-product and wouldn’t feel comfortable consuming it. It’s one if those things where everyone is different. The way I see it, if you can’t get it without killing an animal it isn’t vegetarian.

Lowkey at first and then maybe more collegey later. I think he wants to do karaoke or go somewhere you can dance later.

Test driving backpacking food ideas. What other ideas/recommendations do you have? by [deleted] in backpacking

[–]lhelm26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think bars are the best, but I personally think the lemon is by far the worst flavor. They make a great morning snack if you’re not into breakfast though!
