General Mills has pulled their advertising from Twitter in protest over Elon Musk's moves to make Twitter a free speech platform. We can fight back by not buying General Mills products. Here is a list of their brands: I'll really miss the Progesso soup and Wheaties, but I'm doing it.

Heh, I think the comma is much missed there...
If those 50 are it, I don’t use that stuff except the occasional box of Bugles, and a tube of biscuit dough a couple of times a year.
I think I’ve read that a lot of things you buy at Aldi and places like that are really national brands going under a different name.
I prefer pro-cotting, or buy-cotting products and companies. I think it makes more of a point.
Do you realize just 10 companies make everything you eat? 4 are just baby foods. Heinz-Kraft is 1 company, as is the store brand, which they are attempting to eliminate as they are a few cents cheaper.

Yes. Snyder’s-Lance.
History Channel made a series of the Food that Built America https://www.history.com/shows/the-food-that-built-america
This week it’s the Toys that built America, you learn how crooked they all are.
The one on the Men Who Built America tells you how the wealthy bought McKinely and nullified Teddy R. Until the nut job assassinated McKinely. TR turned out in the Bullmoose party to be as FAR LEFT as BIDEN.
Boycotts never do jack crap. Probably the best course of action would be to get factory workers or delivery drivers to walk out. They are basically the ones having their voice taken away. THe higher ups are beholden to the globalist.
Time warps perspective. TR was more rightwing than pretty much any politician today.
Still not a one of them.
Local flower, I eat Alpin cereal with a different brand of yogurt.
Not too big on snacks.
Nope, Kelloggs (and Post) checked off at about the same time as General Mills.
i just got some coffee today im not going to not eat it
I looked at the whole list. Happy to say we already don’t buy any of this c@rp.
Now, Gardetto’s snack mix IS beyond delicious but we’re on low carb, and don’t usually buy it anyway except for special occasions or when company is coming over.
When he followed after McKinely, he changed after when the Bullmoose party.
Tillamook (dairy in Oregon) is better ice cream than even Hagen Dazs. Their strawberry ice cream is a revelation…(I know, pretty plain Jane flavor, but it will be eye opening).
I don’t think I’ve eaten any of these things. Maybe I had something from Annie’s a long time ago, but everybody said once General Mills bought it it went way downhill.
It’s made in New York City?
Many thanks for taking the time,
doing the research.
Appears there are few GM products being purchasedrecently, with the exception of Yoplait.
This will be easy peasy.
“Häagen-Dazs Hamburger Helper”
Somehow I missed that flavor.
I think that Kramer buys it at Price Club.
We get Tillamook here. I really like their cheeses.
I’ll have to look for the ice cream. I don’t indulge often, but I do like to have that “emergency pint” in my freezer. LOL
