Naturally Poli has it's own thread. Here is a reply by a poster

My best friend sells plastic packaging to the company (Duke Foods) that makes this cheese on behalf of the Henry family. My friend lost $20k a year in income and Duke Foods has laid off over 60 people because of this BS. The owners are flying out to Washington tomorrow to meet with the Costco folks. We don't anticipate it going well for them. It's a great product.

No one ITT thread has even spoken about supporting BLM, have they?

So...was it because he "didn't support BLM", or because he was stupid and posted something on a public forum that could alienate part of their customer base??? Those are two different things.

Mateo's Salsa hasn't come out to support BLM (meaning they aren't supporting them), and I can still get their awesome salsa at Costco.



I don't know why any company, or even any person for that matter, doesn't just say nothing.

You can't prove I don't support something if I don't utter a word about it, and I like it that way.

Remember when they tried this with Goyo? How did that end again?


Is Goyo the dollar store knockoff of Goya? Or is Goyo a dollar store knockoff of Gogurt?

Either way, I want to meet the people boycotting Goyo to ask them some questions.

I know Costco sells Patagonia products. I wonder if they sell the clothes with the hidden "vote the assholes out" tags in them?

It's gonna hurt his bottom line and more importantly his employees deep, all bc some idiot decided to ignore the big picture.

Because the almighty dollar isn't always the ultimate factor in people's decisions?

Haven’t been back since they that BS. My wife said she wouldn’t go back while they were requiring masks. Then a few days ago they wanted to charge us to renew our membership when we paid for two yrs last yr. Wife canceled and said she’ll never go back.

They suck.

Are pimento cheese companies known as super racist or ignorant or something?

Not sure. But I'm not surprised that a pimento cheese owner named Brian Buck from SC flew off the handle on Facebook.
