    Is there a list somewhere of commonly found American products in European supermarket so that I can definitely not do a bit of this…?

    I lose track of all the daughter companies and such that one should watch out for.

        This picture is going through the net for so long, still German news are trying to convince its readers that there aren’t many American products on European supermarket shelves.

        This image alone proves that governments only care about monopolies in writing 😂

        Edit: Aw fuck, Ms Vickies is Canadian but owned by Pepsi? Fml. So in the end, it’s not really Canadian. We can’t have anything good…

          I haven’t done any proper validation - was just a very basic PoC, using resources available to anyone (a list of companies and their subsidiary brands + free LLM) to see if it would work in principle.
