Yeah, I don't need my spices to be political

Apparently the douchnozzle that owns Penzey’s spices has decided that his best strategy to increase his market share is to declare MLK day to be Republicans are Racists day.  And he did so by sending emails (yes plural) to the people on his mailing list.  

One point of irony is that after spewing hate and outright lies, he exhorts people to ‘choose love’.  

I choose to refer to him as a twat.

I have to admit several years ago, I used Penzey’s products but he started showing his ass a while ago and I switched to The Spice House.

So, any bets on how long Penzey’s remains a viable business?

  2. Penzey's Owner has been pulling this nonsense since Trump was elected, throwing a tantrum and claiming voters who elected him are racists etc. As such, Penzey's hasn't seen a dime from me since 2016 and will not in the future.
