Summary
Denmark’s Salling Group, which owns major supermarket chains Bilka, Fotex, and Netto, is introducing a black star label on price tags to mark European-made products.
The move responds to growing Danish consumer anger over former U.S. President Donald Trump’s push to gain control of Greenland.
While the company denies it is boycotting U.S. goods, the labeling system allows shoppers to favor European brands.
Similar trends are emerging across Denmark and Europe amid broader anti-Trump sentiment and concerns over potential U.S.-EU trade conflicts.
Other than wasting money on labels, why not just move the US stuff to a back corner in the store. have marking on the ground to zone this area as US junk.
Many stores already have sections with Asian products and etc. So, it is in line with that policy.
It’s a good idea but everyone already knows what the American crap is.
Is the chocolate literally dog shit? American!
Hey don’t forget to look for the maple leaf on those products too! :)
Or, you know… just slide us Canucks right into the EU, if you please. ASAP.
Dr.Oetker is an honorary European.
Well, it’s German, so yeah.
2025: Buying Anything But American
New ACAB just dropped, BABA!
BABA
Well the US is proving to be quite the black sheep.
My country has fucked up international relations big time (US).
Unfortunate; it’s not identifying US-made goods, it’s identifying European-made goods.
I was hoping that the EU and commonwealth nations would band together on this.
I’m still hoping we backdoor our way into the EU… Canada is like Western Europe… with extra Western.
I’ve been to Montreal/Quebec a handful of times. Felt just like Europe, just with bigger dumber cars. We can definitely let you in, but only if you promise to swap General Motors for Volkswagen ;)
