Pearl Milling is Canadian. I’ve been using it since the first tariff wave. It’s just as good. Yes, I’m back to turning “Product of USA” upside down.

      but some of us are willing to take the hit, and you sure as fuck shouldn’t shame them for that, just like people who can’t swing it shouldn’t be shamed for buying what they can afford

      You can if you want to. I certainly won’t judge if your budget is tight and affordability is a really big concern for you.

      But, at the same price, or for a few pennies difference if you can buy Canadian, please do.

      I can’t speak for all Canadians, but I can speak for myself. I WILL spend more if I know the product is from Canada.

      If the Canadian or non-US options are more expensive and someone honestly cannot afford to purchase them, even though they want to, I won’t hold that against them. When I say cannot afford I mean the difference between having enough food, keeping the lights on, or some other similar situation. Not so you can buy a more expensive bottle of wine.

      However, if the Canadian or non-US option isn’t the cheapest and someone can afford the difference but doesn’t care or purposely buys the US option. Fuck them. Fuck them with rusty barbed wire.
