no choice - 07:01 PM
(filed under 'general')
smiley & i went to the shops just before to buy some sweetened condensed milk to make some yummy little coconutty-chocolate balls that we saw on play school earlier this afternoon.
i generally try to buy an australian brand & australian made, but there was simply no choice there at bi-lo. there was only evil nestle (who push powdered baby formula on mums in countries with tainted water & then the mums can't breastfeed anymore once their milk has dried up) & the multinational coles brand which is probably made by nestle anyway.
grrr. i hate that. i wish there was a family-run shop within walking distance. i'll bet they'd stock a better range of brands. i don't mean a bigger range, i mean a better range. i.e. not coles or woolworths brands.

i like the coles and woolworths brands because they are cheaper and for a lot of things they are not so much of a reduction in quality like homebrand stuff used to be.
buying australian made and owned and free range eggs and organic fruit and veg would be very nice but the reality is that there's no way a lot of people could afford to feed their families if they only got that kind of stuff.
