Mars is a family owned small company, not a corporate giant. I hope Mars just stands restful and lets the thing pass.

Family-owned, yes. Small? THIRTY BILLION DOLLARS in revenue a year and market leadership in several categories (Wrigley's gum, Snickers, M & Ms, Life Savers, Whiskas/Caesar Pet Food, Uncle Ben's)

I've no beef against Skittles. Kraft/Adams gum is made in my nearby city Rockford,so I'm biased (Chiclets forever!). However, Arizona iced tea is nasty. Snapple is liberal, but ot is tasty and refreshing.

Getting back to Mars, Inc. They are so diversified, it would be hard to have an effective boycott.
