Henry Lowi from Canada on boycotting Israeli products:
“My local grocery store has a large “Kosher foods” section in which are interspersed many “Product of Israel” items. When I checked about 10 of these last items, not one had a 729 barcode….I suspect that some of these products might bear the barcode of the LOCAL importer. So, my suggestion to you is to not emphasize the barcode for BDS consumer boycott purposes, but rather that we ascertain the source of the product, being wary of “Imported by …”, “Distributed by …” etc.”
