Subject: Apple Pop-Tarts #consumer#trivia

There have been a number of variations of Apple Pop-Tarts. One variation is back on the market. See the attached illustration. However, by and large, apple variations have been discontinued due to the fact that consumers allegedly prefer stronger flavors.

Please read about the #BDS #boycotts if you haven’t already!

I know, as #anticapitalist we’re not likely to be the biggest #consumers, and that many of these #companies targeted for #boycott, #divestment, and #sanctions, are not #consumer brands anyway.

But, the #Palestinian BDS National Committee has identified list of companies that support #Israel and which profit off the #genocide in #Gaza!
