Actually, it's not. Speaking from experience. I'm a sample size of one, but that's still one better than your extrapolation from zero.

One of the local supermarket chains here in Denmark (Salling Group) even puts a star on the price tag for products of European origin.

For larger purchases, I'm doing research on the product anyway.

I still sometimes buy American at times; sometimes there's no avoiding it for certain items. But on the whole avoiding American goods isn't that hard, and doesn't require much effort.

Given that the US is the only country in recent memory whose politics have shifted from "pretty normal for a western nation" to "unpredictable rogue state", it's not as though the list of "countries to avoid" changes that often.

Countries like Russia, Iran, and China have been very consistent in their philosophies and actions; countries like France, the UK, and Japan have also been pretty consistent. The only real change lately is the US.

On a similar note:

There was a period post-Brexit when I hadn't moved away from Ireland yet during which I also did my best to avoid UK produced goods too.

Now that was a lot harder though due to the UK still being in the single market at the time, and on top of that just how integrated supply chains between the north and the rest of Ireland are.

I'm cautiously optimistic that the UK is moving back toward sanity though.

Many store chains in Canada have also started putting maple leaf icons on price tags for Canadian-made products over the last year or two, after the US did whatever they've done. But it's harder to avoid US-made products here, because so much is imported and it's the only country we share a real land border with.
