SWIPE ➡️ some of these may surprise you 😬
Do I still buy from some of these brands? I do occasionally, especially if the ingredients haven’t changed, like with Hu Chocolate. However, would I rather support an independently owned company instead of a big conglomerate? Yes.
So, here’s alternative indie brands for each of the brands that sold out to big corp:
Goodles ➡️ jovial
Siete ➡️ MASA Chips, Vandy Crisps, Dress It Up Dressing🫒
Purely Elizabeth ➡️ Nature’s Path Organic
Primal Kitchen ➡️ Dress It Up Dressing🫒, Organicville
Justin’s ➡️ Artisana Market | Organic Foods
Lesser Evil ➡️ Pip's Heirloom Snacks
Hu Chocolate ➡️ Raaka Chocolate (code GBOOTS15)
Kalshi ➡️ Seven Sundays (code GREENBOOTLIFE)
RX Bars ➡️ jonesbar, Rawr Organics (code GREENBOOTLIFE for both)
Annie’s ➡️ Amy's Kitchen
Did any of these surprise you? How do you feel about health brands being bought out by these big corporations?
