Dear Mr. Penzey,

P***ing off half the US population with your screed will kill your business. Note that Apple, Ben & Jerry's and Nike have been VERY careful with post-election remarks, because all three have a reputation to hold up and losing half your potential business will cost them massive amounts of money.

Ah, I know where a Penzey's shop is! Maybe I'll go in some day and admire their spices and tell them I would never buy from them, though.

That will be fun!

I heard somewhere that penzy spice is actually poison. Do your own research!

And aren't they harvested by sex slave children, who are dying from AIDS, in Haiti?

I’ll keep them in mind.

You know the first thing I look for? Grains of Paradise.
Can be hard to find. Didn’t see it at the Penderys site.

They don’t carry his stuff at the local Wally World, so I wouldn’t buy it anyway. But if I ever wander into a Whole Foods I’ll pass it buy just because.

These fools never cease to amaze me. Mrs riverdawg was talking with a friend at lunch yesterday about this spice company and it’s products. She won’t buy from them now.

PLEASE, PLEASE keep this up, liberals. The more you publicize it the better. Keep demonstrating that you have learned nothing from this election.

This jerk has an outlet in my town. I ignored his slobbering over gay marriage; I disagreed with his opinion but liked the store.

But this is another level entirely. My mother and I have been showing Bill Penzey’s nasty screed to everyone we know and will no longer buy his products.

just dang. I used to like Penzyes. Planned to get my Christmas dinner spices there. Oh, well, there are other places.

"Oh, well, there are other places."

One option: I saw that his sister has a spice store that she inherited from their father. She wrote, "My husband and I are very careful to never bring politics or personal opinions into our spice company, they have no business there. We value all of our customers so very much. Heck, I would not even want to get into a subjective debate over which cinnamon is the best!"

Bill Penzey's business is separate.

how do we know which is which?? There’s one here in Northern VA, and another I’ve patronized in RIchmond. Never thought I’d have to look into the corporate ownership and their political opinions
