I used to buy from them regularly but stopped when the owner said he didn’t want business from conservatives. I took him at his word.
I loved his products but if he was going to be that big a jerk then f××k him. Interesting thing is a relative of his runs a competing spice company.
The family also had a separate company that was run by Ruth Pennzy and has passed on to her daughter and her husband who have brought in outside financialpartners. Its called the Spice House
It turns out that his sister and her husband run The Spice House. I've talked to her to let her know why she got my business about 5 years ago when that knucklehead at Penzeys drove me away. She told me that, having been raised in the same house by the same parents, they could not be more different. She also told me that she and her husband keep their political views OUT of their business environment. They have good products, good service and I've been very pleased with them.
No their not. Which ticks me off because I stopped buying from them several years ago when he sent outban email saying he didn’t really want Republican or conservative customers
“They guy has been a nut job for years. What’s the name of the spice company alternative? There’s at least one.”
some of the best spices and best spice prices are available from east India and oriental grocery stores; mexican grocery stores too ... spices are sold in large packages for a tiny fraction of chain grocery store prices and usually are surprisingly fresh ... plus you’re supporting small, local, independent, business owners ..
I bet those two fit the Limsosine Liberal mold to a tee - They’ve got theirs, so they don’t care.
Never heard of them!!!
Remember when Bill blew off taking his daughter to Rome, and stayed in Ireland, so they could help ‘celebrate the historic victory’ of the Irish legalizing abortion?
That was another disgusting editorial in his catalogue....then Trump won, and he REALLY pulled out all the stops, making this rant look sane in comparison.
Instead of ‘publicly repenting and asking his forgiveness’, and then ‘working to right the great harm we helped inflict upon our nation’, we took him at his word that otherwise he no longer wanted our business.
The problem is, is that he’s getting so NUTTY that even his die-hard lefty customers are dropping him.
I read elsewhere that this is costing him big bucks in sales, so that’s why he’s panicking.
So, SO tired of being called names by leftist business owners, and pretty darn tired of even conservative companies that are catering to the ‘woke’ crowd.
I LOVE seeing all of this stupidity that the leftists start, backfiring on them.
I mean, seriously? The ‘party of equality’ now has black college kids DEMANDING to be segregated from Whitey! Their unintended consequences always bite them in the arse. And it’s a beautiful thing! :)
The Weekly Garden Thread this week is all about Medicinal Herbs. Come on over!
Pretty sure he’s the sole owner. I don’t think he has anyone to report to. The parents who founded the company are both deceased, though his sister owns ‘The Spice House.’
I wonder if she has any pull? Her business website is gorgeous - wouldn’t be too terrible if she bought him out and took over all of his stores. ;)
“Might have been way back in the Act 10 days.”
Penzey spent hundreds of thousands of dollars buying ads and billboards, etc. to get Governor Scott Walker recalled.
He’s a busy, busy little Communist, LOL!
I only stay subscribed so I can report on his screeds. Haven’t bought from them in years and years and promote boycotts whenever I can.
I don’t think he knows that I’m his Worst Nightmare. *SMIRK*
They had great spices. I only went to their store twice and then the political stuff started. They lost a new customer all those years ago.
A trip to their store was always an adventure. Yet another thing ruined by Socialist whackjobs. :(
Badia spices
I liked their selection. I think it was Mexican oregano I liked, hard to remember now. Those morons lost an enthusiastic customer. I was just starting to enjoy their stuff.
Shop at the spice house. Great prices and great spices without liberal contamination.
Yep. I switched to The Spice House years ago. :)
