Not sure if this picture is appropriate but I had to do it.
The other day I discussed with my grandma some of the bad things that Monsanto is doing and what their product is being use for in our food system.
I begged her not to buy this stuff, next day she bought it anyway so I did this to the container.
do any of you think this was appropriate?
I also wrote down some of the facts about the applications of roundup.
Im not trying to berate my grandma, I love her very much, but she had the freedom of choice to do so.

I think this depends on your Grandma. If she finds it amusing or informative or is just taken as a little family prank then it is probably fine. If it makes her angry and resistant to hearing any more on the topic then it might be too far.

I know that arguing with my grandma had the effect of having her not agree with me. Apparently living two to three times longer than the people she was talking to made her feel pretty strongly that she knew better. Go figure.
 
Oh sure, it's a tiny ad, but under the right circumstances, it gets bigger.
