Burnt Toast by Virginia Sole-Smith Our Amazon Diet
You’re listening to Burnt Toast!
We are Virginia Sole-Smith and Corinne Fay, and it’s time for your February Indulgence Gospel.
Today we’re updating you on our great experiment: How did we do with 30 days of NO AMAZON? We’re going to get into:
⭐️ Why did we quit Amazon in the first place?
⭐️ Is quitting Amazon a diet—or at least, diet culture-adjacent?
⭐️ What was our biggest fail?
⭐️ Will we keep going???
