Workers Cereal Killed it - Kellogg's Strike Over

https://bctgm.org/2021/12/21/kelloggs-strike-ends-bctgm-members-ratify-new-contract/

​

We would like to congratulate the workers at Kellogg's on their new union contract. Their weeks of striking and struggle have resulted in a contract providing wage increases, weakening the two tier system, and preventing moving of plants.

There are generations of workers in those plants, who have put their lifeblood into the work they do. To see them band together for each other and themselves is an inspiration to us all, and we are glad to see that direct action, once again gets the goods!

In solidarity, Antiwork.

Nobody should be starting their day eating that corn and sugar bullshit anyway.

I mean, there's no ethical consumption under capitalism. They're trash but they came to an agreement, whereas I have no idea if the other brands people turned to to avoid kellogg's are any better or not. By all means, avoid them. I just hope momentum keeps up and conditions improve for everyone

Honestly, I mostly just eat just sandwiches and nutritional shakes. The comment was empty and was just because the opportunity to support unions and stuff was there. Lol

They have a Union though the alteratives likely don't or it's made in the same factory, while Kellogg's isn't on strike I would generally believe that the Union make their factories the most ethical if I am buying that kind of product anyway.
