This is getting ridiculous.

America needs to back American businesses once again.

In America.

Just dammit. Oreo's are my kryptonite (along with pizza and cheeto's) .... I didn't know they weren't made here anymore.

Well, I guess as soon as the flat of Oreo's I have is gone then there'll be no more in my house.

many grocery chains have “Oreo” imitators.

A LOT of this has to do with sugar tariffs. A lot of our candy has already moved to Canada and Mexico. Most of the real sugar Coca-Cola comes from Mexico. Straight sugar imported to a bottling plant or a candy factory gets a tariff. Bottled coca-Cola or Hershey’s Candy with sugar does NOT.

If Oreos are outlawed, only outlaws will eat Oreos.

This is a good reason:

Just wait. Someone will soon come along to say that Trump once flew in a French-made jet, or something like that.

A chocolate cookie will not do it for me anymore. I have to mainline it with Trader Joes 72% cacao.

Nabisco products are off my shopping list.

[Vermont Lt]

They were just on sale here this week. 4 boxes for $10.

So, I will swear off them in a couple of weeks.

You want business in America? Stop taxing it to death.

I eat Mallomars, THE BEST COOKIE EVER MADE, and they are made in Canada by Nabisco. They are a seasonal Brand, only available between October and April and they are really expensive. One of my few guilty pleasures.

My desire for Oreos has been steadily declining since I started Chemotherapy some years back. Before that, I was Choclaholic.

Mallomars used to be made in New York or the Tri State area, but they moved Production to Canada a while ago. I don’t remember hearing that it was because of the Sugar Tariff.

I also drive a 2015 Dodge Challenger that is made in Canada just like the Chevy Camaro. Before you know it, I’ll be watching Hockey, not...

[livius]

He doesn’t look like he needs to eat any more Oreos or any other kind of cookie, for that matter, ever again.

[MUDDOG]

If they’re moving Nutter Butters to Mexico, I don’t want to know.

[pacpam]

Buy Lacey’s cookies, sold by Trader Joe’s and Costco. Cookie factory in Eureka CA!!! So good.

Look into the demise of the sugar cane industry in Hawaii. Happened when the unions moved in and insisted on wages so high it put the growers out of.business

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Trump, during his bid for the Republican presidential nomination, has been outspoken about his displeasure of American companies moving overseas to China and Mexico

When American companies are drive out of the country by ever-increasing taxes and regulations, the answer might be to look at and reduce our taxes and regulations. There used to be a time when companies in Europe and other high-tax nations tried to relocate to America.

Oreos LEFT the US because the sugar tariff here is double what it is in the rest of the world. Perhaps Michelle O doesn’t want YOU AND ME to get fat like her?? I say we support Oreos for making a common sense decision. Lots of companies are going under with this ridiculous tariff, and the sooner the stupid government rescinds it, the better for the economy, the better for these businesses, the better for the tax-collectors. Why should they have to pay double? it’s a sin-tax. I support Oreos all the way.

[TigersEye]

I always have mixed feelings when I hear that an American company has opened a new plant in Mexico hiring X-hundred workers. That means that X-hundred Mexicans have jobs in Mexico and no reason to come here.

If we want American companies to stay here we need to give them a reason to stay like lower taxes and fewer regulations.
