While I’m generally skeptical of boycotts, BDS scares the shit out of Israel. Because I do believe if BDS becomes a global movement it really could change things. I’ll start with the list from bdsmovement.net and then add to the list as people list other companies to boycott in the comments:

Hewlett-Packard (computer hardware)

Siemens (tech conglomerate)

AXA (banking & insurance)

Puma (clothing)

Israeli fruits and vegetables (usually labeled)

SodaStream (idk that garbage home soda)

Ahava (cosmetics)

Sabra (hummus)

Aldi hummus or gtfo

Or make it yourself. Ridiculously easy and tastes way better. I recommend trying it with serrano pepper and garlic.

I made sweet potato hummus once and it went so bloody hard

[-] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 10 months ago

Wow, that's something I never considered. Going to have to try it myself. Did you make it more sweet or savory?

[-] PointAndClique@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

Much sweeter. The recipe called for one orange sweet potato. IIRC I peeled, cubed and then roasted the potato first. I also boiled thr chickpeas with a little baking soda because apparently that softens them, too, and the potato would mask any bitterness. It's a couple extra steps but it came out well.

I'm definitely going to put some serrano in mine next time. Thanks for the recommendation!

Is that ham or am I confused?

[-] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

Spicy pepper.

[-] Shinhoshi@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 10 months ago

It’s a small chili pepper

[-] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 10 months ago

I prefer it over jalapenos because I don't like the taste of jalapenos. Similar spiciness, better taste. Hope you enjoy it!

I have never had a tub of aldi hummus I've enjoyed. What flavor do you usually get? Maybe that's my problem

[-] Cummunism@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

i think the pine nut one?

[-] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 1 points 10 months ago

Ok, well, I may have to try that one! I've tried garlic and one other one, maybe plain? Both bad, but I'm down to try one more kind of aldi hummus! Thanks!
