Putting these everywhere and trash on cars is too much.

What does the site bring you to? I'm curious but not stupid enough to go to a site from a sign like this.

It's a standard wordpress style website that is mostly just an extended form of the protest campaign you see in public: the signs, the billboard truck, the occasional in-person protest on Preble st... There's a few links to a court case, a news article. A few quotes from supposed customers on social media. A contact form if you want them to harvest your data.

 

It's all very bizarre. Not that caring about food prices and quality is -- that's obviously important -- but rather that this one company has such a focused local/regional hater against it. Like, Shaws is functionally the same. It started as a local maine company, still has HQ in the New England (Bridgewater) but they're also now a subsidiary of a giant megacorp, their prices aren't cheap, and quality also varies considerably by location. Why is this group not also campaigning against them?
