Even then that only works if they specificy that it's because of a boycott, they could refuse to do business because the other guy smelt like a vegetarian omelette MRE which would be a valid reason. Anti-boycott laws are pretty universally easy to get around since a boycott functions on the principal of "I'm not buying that" which is pretty hard to prove the reasoning to.

fyi a vegetarian omlette is just an omlette, you're probably thinking vegan, also yeah vegans are so annoying for randomly bringing it up huh

No, I know what I said. The naming scheme for military shit can be a bit weird but for the Vomellete in particular it's because they were planning on bringing back a ham and eggs MRE equivalent. They never got to it since the Vomellete was so fucking bad, it was so bad that stevemre1989 gagged which is impressive since he has eaten food from the 1800s.

it didn't really register that we're talking about military rations
i was talking more generally, vegetarian diet includes eggs and milk, so idk what else they might have added, maybe some old unused cheese from the cheese caves

Cheese and veggies were the secondary components. Obviously the shitty eggs were primary.
