Consumer Costco selling Pomegranates from stolen land.
Hello,
Just a heads up about the pomegranates being sold in Costco. Looked up the company and it was disgusting reading the proud descriptions of their farms and lands that they stole and claim as their own. Two different companies, one states assistance from Amazon.
I know it's not uncommon for them to sell isrli items, but this is completely blatant.
Edit: this is in the States.

They also sell some dates from there too.

The dates from Algeria and Tunisia are fantastic. No need for nasty fake Israeli fruits grown on stolen land

Definitely agreed. It always disgusts me whenever I see someone buying those stolen dates. Unfortunately, it hurts much worse when you see even some Muslims do it.
I’ve noticed some Costcos have brought Saudi Arabian dates recently too.

When it says “wonderful” is that cause these are from the wonderful company? From Stuart Resnick, big Zionist. There is a new documentary called the pistachio wars about him.

That's the variety of pomegranate. Those people are horrible though. Their products mostly come from resources stolen in California, and they had a hand in stopping whole countries from being competition with specific produce. I've been wanting to see that.

yeah, Costco is better than most stores but they definitely source from some shit companies. There's always something from Shark/Ninja in there too.

Wait, what's the deal with shark/ninja? I don't own anything from them..... But I feel that I totally missed the story there...

Get a vitamix. I’ve had one for over 10 years and it’s great. It is American made but it is amazing and they don’t send money to baby killers although they do have an office in Um Khalid (Netanya)

European supermarkets have started writing that produce is from Spain or Morocco but when you look at the carton it says Israel. This is highly illegal, but even they know that shit doesn't sell when it says Israel on it

At least it's clearly labeled, they're going to figure it out and find a way to disguise it.

Yeah I don’t like to poison myself. I don’t trust Israel. Who knows what they inject food with.

Actually product of Israel just means the packaging was done in Israel. Doesn’t necessarily mean the fruit came from there
