It’s easy to assume that Austin’s predominant leftist politics preclude things beyond their talking points. Not so when it comes to what the JCAA’s CEO Jay Rubin calls the “buycot” answer to anti-Israel boycotts, and calls for divestment and sanctions:
“Whole Foods has begun carrying delicious Jaffa clementines direct from Israel… You can support Israel in Austin by buying a crate, encouraging your friends to buy crates and thanking Whole Foods produce managers for carrying them.
“Of course, H-E-B is no slouch as far as Israeli food products are concerned. Our recent visitors from the Partnership with the Western Galilee were astounded by the selection of Israeli products available at the H-E-B Kosher Store.”
Whole Foods is too pricey and too far away for me, but the H-E-B with the Kosher Store is just a few blocks away. I’m there or in the vicinity about every day.
