Comments on: Part of my Namesake http://pumpkinandpomegranate.com/2010/part-of-my-namesake/ Passionate about nourishing and scrumptious food Thu, 25 Aug 2011 17:13:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Marissa http://pumpkinandpomegranate.com/2010/part-of-my-namesake/comment-page-1/#comment-774 Marissa Wed, 14 Apr 2010 22:20:44 +0000 http://pumpkinandpomegranate.com/?p=1903#comment-774 Thank you for that information. I don't think that pomegranate juice is medicinal, nor do I look to Pom Wonderful for scientific evidence of any kind. I like pomegranate juice, know that pomegranates are good for you, and therefore had no problem accepting a gift of the Pom juice. I don't think that Pom Wonderful has juice that is more nutritious than others, and I probably won't be purchasing their juice in future I don't like that the switched from glass bottles to plastic bottles. I personally do not have the time nor the energy to investigate every single company I purchase from to make sure I only buy from companies who share my ethics. I can only do so much and remain slightly sane. I fully support your battle though, and do hope that Pom Wonderful changes it's ways in regards to environmental issues.

Personally I prefer buying pomegranate juice from Trader Joe's because it comes in glass bottles. I won't boycott POM because they have stopped the animal testing, but I don't go out of my way to buy their products specifically. If they started animal testing again you can bet I'd boycott.
