Perhaps not teflon, but I'm fairly sure many homes use insulation,
etc. made by the companies in question. The same is probably
true of many household appliances. Also, what about indirect
use? E.g. did any of the tools used to build the house use
teflon parts? If one were serious about the boycott, wouldn't
indirect use count?
