I've had a free lunch before.

How do you know it's not sustainable ?

Not knowing the future has nothing to do with sustainable agriculture.

Maybe they are just the ones you remember directly because you're not part of their target demographic and so they are jarring.

I often see products in sports that re-enforce my brand choices. Even as much as I dislike that sentence. They ride the same brand of motorbike as me, helmet, sunglasses, gloves etc. etc.
