This picture is going through the net for so long, still German news are trying to convince its readers that there aren’t many American products on European supermarket shelves.
I haven’t done any proper validation - was just a very basic PoC, using resources available to anyone (a list of companies and their subsidiary brands + free LLM) to see if it would work in principle.
The file itself is sourced from Wikipedia, so is probably accurate enough if you just wanted to ctrl+f and search manually.
Is there a list somewhere of commonly found American products in European supermarket so that I can definitely not do a bit of this…?
I lose track of all the daughter companies and such that one should watch out for.
minus Nestle (sadly) and Unilever

This image alone proves that governments only care about monopolies in writing 😂
Edit: Aw fuck, Ms Vickies is Canadian but owned by Pepsi? Fml. So in the end, it’s not really Canadian. We can’t have anything good…
Old Dutch chip is canadian
I hope so, I’m running out of chips that are real Canadian chips 😂
TIL Garnier is affiliated with Nestlé. And here I thought I found good vegan bleach to dye my hair. Smh my head
Nestlé doesn’t need to be American for you to boycott it though.
In this community it kinda does but I still agree in general
Minus Unilever as well.
Thanks, fixed it
Here is a list that may be helpful

And if you were not totally against using AI, then you could load that list to Mistral, take a pic and identify things quickly. As per the photo.
Thanks! I find the method interesting. Are the results mostly accurate in your experience?
