no, actually he DID understand the bigger picture and was willing to risk money for it....

you clearly do not even understand what the phrase 'bigger picture' means
what? His bigger picture should have been how his post could and would have an effect on his company.

I'm not privy to their fins but being in Costco is a pretty fricking big deal, so losing that big of an account could mean what for his company, his employees?

The bigger picture to him should have been that, period.

Post shite like that on an anonymous message board, not some avenue where they can attach your name to your company.

Pulling a brand because they don't support BLM


It’s not like they sent out some pledge to all their vendors. The dude actively took a public controversial stance. I think most of those upset would say “play stupid games” if it was a liberal stance that got them in a bind.

One of only two cheeses i dont like...pimento and bleu cheese


I'm with you on half of that, pimento cheese is not good. Bleu cheese is awesome. What do you dip Buffalo wings in? fricking ranch?

Especially a regional or state account. It's not national or I don't think so. That's a major blow to the bottom line and as you said, should be pretty hard to replace in terms of cases to other grocers. Could cost some hourly EEs their jobs due to myriad of things. Production cut. Revenue. You name it.

The version of this with the jalapenos in it is the GOAT.

In Texas we have Price's which is outstanding. Is Price's in anyone else's area?

We really like their jalapeño pimento cheese and get it every time we host a party. But that brand can be purchased elsewhere...their loss.

Any supporter of BLM at this point is stupid beyond belief or a racist.



I don't support their tactics, but c'mon man. They have a long way to go before they reach KKK levels of terrorism. Young people today have no idea the type of terror the KKK caused black folks. If you were black, you couldn't walk down the street in the South w/o the threat of being hung from a damn tree.
