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."

Land o Lakes is hoping to appeal to woke millennials who don’t buy butter. Millennials use “heart smart,” anti-global warming olive oil spread that nobody in their right mind would ever use.

This is probably why.

A rite of passage for young boys.

I love Tillamook cheese, here in Central TX.

I love me some Braum’s down here in Texas. They make a good burger, too.

I’m sure ‘Tami’ used to work in Human Resources at some other godless corporation in the past.

I learned that in seventh grade in 1963. It was my first glimpse.

Living here in Panama and I saw a display today of Uncle Ben’s Rice with good ‘ol Uncle Ben on the box. However, I busted out laughing when I saw the sale display label which said “Uncle Beans”... some things here get lost in translation. For the record, I can still buy Aunt Jemima’s with a grinning towel-wearing Aunt Jemima on the box too.

Based on her non-answer answer, she’s a shoo-in to replace Psaki.

I do the same thing. I just by Lucerne now, or whatever is next to the Land O Lakes. I liked the Indian girl on the package. Indians are a huge part of our history.

Actually saved money by taking that off each box. Brilliant cost savings. I could care less. It’s butter for Gods sake. We need to pick our battles. Instead we lost 10 elections yesterday in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Colorado where a sitting republican lost to a democrat. But keep crying about butter. At least you’ve got your priorities.

“...and we are seeking new ways to tell our farmer-owned story to consumers...”

Here’s a new way right here.

Don’t get yourself worked up into a lather there, NC. I write lots of letters to local statehouse reps, congress critters, etc.

I just want to win elections especially easy ones like the ten we lost yesterday. I would imagine some were writing letters instead of voting.

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

Really? It is printed on the inside of the box...I have NEVER seen a box that doesn't have these coupons.

Dairy Farms in Sonoma County.

We just spent a few days at Bodega Bay and drove back today and enjoyed watching the contented cows feeding on the green Sonoma grasses waiting for their evening milking.

“She completely dodged the fundamental issue I raised.”

Of course. She’s not going to engage. It would be like trying to reason with a chicken. Literally.

But you got your point across, and they know it. Her dodge is just whistling past the graveyard.

I used to alternate between Land O’ Lakes and Président. Now I just use Président. Didn’t bother contacting the company.
