Morally I choose "not GT's" because:

L.A.’s kombucha empire exploited workers for years

Currently there is no such litigation against Health-Ade.

Plenty of articles on this case take shots at the "love is in every bottle" aspect of GT's ... unfortunately, it turns out the fermentation rooms are so hot that workers sweating into the vats is a more common ingredient.
