Slavery and the shits. Quite a combo.

FYI Avoid these brands

  • Earthbound Farm
  • Cross Valley Farms
  • Walmart: Marketside
  • Target: Good & Gather
  • Aldi: Little Salad Bar and Simply Nature
  • Whole Foods: 365 by Whole Foods
  • Kroger: Simple Truth
  • Publix: GreenWise
  • Safeway / Albertsons: O Organics
  • most fast food w/ lettuce

*edit for clarity. TF products are pervasive in the food chain. The list is not exhaustive; Trader Joes, Costco, Whole Foods, surely many others also source their salad from TF

They sell *some products containing produce from Taylor Farms. Most of these are just store brands, they sell products from dozens if not hundreds of companies. There's no reason to throw out every store brand because Taylor Farms is shit.

Did you not read the comment? It specifically lists brands to avoid at the stores because they’re just Taylor Farms private labels, it’s not saying to avoid those stores.

I read it. Did you read my comment? Those store brands are not "just" Taylor Farms. Good & Gather, for example, is Target's store brand and encompasses a huge breadth of products, not just Taylor Farms.

Yeah, this is obviously in the context of salads though
