What brands do you avoid at all cost? I don’t keep up with the news all that much, and many of the reasons to avoid something don’t make it there anyway. So I’m asking here to make a big list of things to avoid. It could be anything from bad security practices to really frustrating packaging. Working as a cashier myself, I definitely know there are plenty of brands I avoid purely on the basis that their product is a pain to stock.

On the flip side, what’s the alternative? If you avoid Pepsi, for example, what do you turn to instead?

    The awesome thing is that those marks can be counterfeit and you only know by looking up the number.

      Oh yeah, that’s the other thing I forgot to mention. Make sure the mark is legit.

      In general, branded products that are an actual brand (not some Amazon special) and have good reviews should be okay.
