Truer words have never been spoken!

Are you listening Whole Foods (owned by Amazon)?

As consumers, we can do so much more than just shop elsewhere;

Keep sharing & putting them on blast until they straighten out their priorities.

Amazonโ€™s lack of regulation & accountability means that many products linked to animal testing still make it to market.

Despite claiming to oppose animal cruelty, Amazon profits from these harmful practices.

Time for change.

Where was that focus and great selection when Whole Foods stocked coconut milk linked to monkey abuse?
