Last trip to the grocery store I couldn't find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I'm very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there's even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I'd expected.

You're right, I guess that's 3 direct purchases to date. Software platforms are definitively the hardest to replace.

That and there's probably a lot of other ways you have made purchases without even knowing. My point is that don't beat yourself up over not doing a full boycott. The fact that you're doing what you're doing will have an impact pretty big already. If enough people are like you, even if they aren't perfect, will have a huge impact.
