To boycott Phillip Morris you need to more than you can imagine.
Nabisco, Kraft Foods, Jacobs, Maxwell House, Oreo, Post Cereals, Tang, Cheese Whiz, Lunchables, Kraft Mayonnaise/ketchuo, Ritz, Toblerone, Kool-aid, and more, and that's just a start of their holdings. You'd need to avoid the products from over 80 brand names to boycott Phillip Morris.
They know cigarettes are a dying (no pun intended) product and have diversified into food. Sooner or later, (when it stops being financially sound) they will leave the cigarette industry. Phillip Morris will live on, the tobacco brands will be dropped.
I have been to their headquarters. They are much more than a cigarette company. When i was there, I was surprised to see that most of their employees did not smoke.
Makes you think.
PS - I was there as a consultant, they use our software.
