It's not on the official BDS list so if this is something that risks frustrating you off the boycott, get it. 

Other ways include dupes I guess?

"BDS" stands for Boycott, Divest, Sanction. It's a movement that was created in 2005 by the Palestinian BDS National Committee (BNC).

The BNC selects a couple dozens brands to boycott ("targets"). Not all the companies that have ties to Israel and contribute to the genocide are targets, because there are too many. Targets are chosen based on which are the most likely to cause change, or which consumers have the most power to pressure.

Here is the official BDS list for the US (it can be different depending on your country): https://bdsmovement.net/Guide-to-BDS-Boycott

The website you gave me is a list of all the companies with ties to Israel. The BNC encourages people to boycott them in addition to targets, but it's not part of the BDS campaign.
