Good on OP for seeking challenges to their existing view points and being open to changing them upon compelling enough thoughts. In a genuine way no less.

Off the top of my head the only European food product I consistently buy is Kerrygold butter. But I could use a domestic version. Other than that I’ll on rare occasion buy a wine that’ll be from Italy or France rather than a domestic.

The only international foods that really make up any significant part of my grocery list are fruits from the tropics.

Don’t buy land with an easement you don’t want on it. You can tell the seller to talk to the company and have them negotiate the removal of the easement as a condition of sale. They might be willing to buy back the mineral rights.

But barring that if this is a non-negotiable for you don’t buy it.
