    #BuycottGoya

    Diverse, pluralistic, and multicultural buyers of all backgrounds, demographics, ethnicities, religions, locations, and ages have decided to buycott Goya.

    Racist Rich White Privilege Left-wing Censorious Marxists target an "uppity" Hispanic for canceling because he dared to disagee with them.

    Have we had enough of these racist elf-righteous canceling haters? Hasn't the Left taught us that it's the HATERS who should be cancelled?

    Black Beans Matter!

    D.C. might need to build more food banks, or rent overflow supply storage.

    Never bought, will start buying. If I ever find anywhere that sells it... I don't think they market in WA.

    Here's a "Where to Buy" from Goya. You just need to type in your zip code to see if there is a retailer near by.

    I searched several of what I presume are more common products, and no results within 50 miles.

    Prolly why I've never seen or heard of them before.

    :blushes:´ ~ Slipped into the market last night - GOYA sold out . This was likely not even on mainstream news and already this brand seems to be going fast. We will see what happens with product sales ...

    The store I shopped Monday had quite a few noticeable "holes" in the Goya section. The rest of the store looked rather well-stocked.

    Goya in demand!

    A couple days ago the fundraiser said he'd stop the D.C. food bank donations at $150k, and amounts over that will go to pantries outside of D.C. $151k over the D.C. cap already.

    Nice job!

    This is the best way to see democracy in action. It's also a good hint that the fringe loons on the left, are, in fact, fringe.

    The Hispanics probably heard what AOC had to say and laughed, and laughed, and laughed.... and went shopping.

    LOL

    Then there is this Anti-Goya fundraiser who is accusing Goya's CEO of racism and hurting minorities.

    Fundraiser started 4 days ago. Dollars raised = $0.00 (Might have helped if she said where the money's going, or if she and her oppressed family are the worthy cause.)

    Boycott Goya, potential outcomes if it had been successful....

    Outcome A: Boycott Goya and "hurt" Trump and Goya's CEO
    Outcome B: Boycott Goya and hurt 4,000 mostly Hispanic workers and result in a shortage of a Latino staple food product.

    Question: Who gets hurt more if Goya fails:...two wealthy men....or....4,000 poor people and millions of customers?

    Smart thinking, AOC and J. Castro!

    I like the fact that Goya canned beans is kosher certified. I will continue to buy Goya canned beans, although I intend to vote for Joe Biden.

    Never bought, won't buy not. Not because of politics, but because I can easily get the same thing for a lot cheaper. Why would I pay more for the same thing?

    This. This a legitimate, non-political reason. Never knew that before, so thank you for bringing that up.

    I actually am a big mojo fan, and last year switched to the publix generic brand after my brother made a fantastic dish. I was surprised because we have several latino markets in town, but it was delish!

    There wasn't a huge increase in donations over the weekend. As most of these product/brand boycott v buycott protests go, they're usually a short-term "wave".

    Still, really great job riding the wave and raising money for food banks!
