    There should be an “protest buy” action to any the products that do this bullshit. A large group of people buy the products and then return them to the store for a refund. Especially for perishable goods, this would make them worthless. Which would make stocking such products a loss and force the vendors and manufacturers to cut the shit out.

      Be careful, if you do a “protest buy”, they may legally be able to not accept the return since you already knew about the contract. So you know, either don’t do it or at least don’t post on social media about it.

        Yeah you’d want to legally verify that and organize en masse for this to have any impact.
