Land O'Lakes Gone Woke
Personal Letter ^ | April 7, 2021 | ProtectOurFreedom

Posted on 04/07/2021 2:08:36 PM PDT by ProtectOurFreedom

I was in Safeway the other day and went to buy butter. We've been long-time Land O'Lakes butter users, but I quit buying them when they went woke a couple months ago. While in the dairy aisle, I got really ticked off seeing the hole where the Indian maiden used to be that I shot off a quick not to the Land O'Lakes Company (below).

I hate it that I can't even go grocery shopping without seeing "woke" garbage which reminds me of BLM, then antifa, the Biden and how everything is going down the drain. (rant off)

Dear Land O'Lakes:

I ran out of butter the other day and went to the grocery store where I found your butter with the conspicuous hole where the Indian maiden used to be. I made a conscious decision to buy Challenge butter right then and forever more. I cannot stand woke companies and refuse to buy any products from them.

I especially like the way you kept the Indian maiden's land and mountains but disposed of her.

A former lifelong buyer of Land O'Lakes butter but now gone forever.

PS. Challenge Dairy hasn't yet found a way to claim the elk on their butter package is "racist."

If you buy it at Costco it's pretty darn reasonable.

Wow, what was I thinking (or not thinking)? Of course! Elks live in pine forests with racist pine trees good for lynching. Look at the package below. They even show racist pine trees on it. How un-woke can they be?

We better write to Challenge Dairy right away and say how offended we are!

I stopped buying it when they changed from the whole body, kneeling squaw. The knees were easily placed elsewhere on the body.

That’s a cut and paste job for sure...and not the first time they’ve sent it out.

“...tell them you’re now a regular customer because you always refused to buy any products with pictures of drunken savages on the packaging”

LOLOL (really). I like your thinking!

What a nice reply from your waitress. She sounded really offended and rightfully so.

“White American Cheese”

Now that’s a two-fer, isn’t it? “White” and “American” — two of the most reviled things today.

Challenge butter has 55 cents off coupons printed on the inside of the box, so make sure you don’t dispose of the box when removing sticks of butter.

If they wanted to make the packaging real there would be a cell tower or wind turbine on the mountain. :-)

“cut and paste job for sure”

I worked with a brilliant friend who was an exec at Studebaker-Worthington. He called them “bedbug letters.” I asked him “Malcolm, what’s a bedbug letter.”

He explained that marketing departments long ago (typewriter era) had canned letters ready to go for all occasions. When a guest at a hotel would complain about bedbugs, the head of Marketing would tell the underling “Send them bedbug letter #3.”

LOL sent me their bedbug letter.

You just sent me to the fridge...nope, no coupon on the box. Just “cyan magenta yellow black” on the inside flap.

Got rid of the indian, kept the land.

Isn't that pretty much the story of western expansion in the 19th century?

Subjugation! Kind of how it was done for a week or two.

You have a point. There is also the case of the Washington Redskins, as if one is supposed to be ashamed to have a red skin.
