I don’t usually get all wrapped around the axle about boycotts and stuff, but as a FORMER loyal fan (to the tune of HUNDREDS of dollars spent) there e-mails leading up to and after the election were just insane.
For our Gardening & Cooking Ping Lists, if you want to help me spread the word. If not, no worries! :)
For those who aren’t aware of this type of cyber bullying
that’s going on from Democratic supporters against Trump supporters, this is a perfect example.
Penzey’s ain’t all it’s cracked up to be. There is nothing particularly special about them over any other brand - look at Watkins, or spice islands or any number of other spice companies. Buy in bulk, or go to other specialty retailers.
The point is, they ain’t the only game in town.
I like the garlic festival for one, but it is all garlic based.

I can say the only penzey’s spices I have were a gift from several years ago and have never been used. It is nothing I can’t do without or create something as good or better than it either.
Based upon the treatment of the people who didn’t want to bake a gay wedding cake, they should be sued.
I stopped buying from them a few years ago, after Mark Belling featured this company’s antics on his show. I did like their spices, but too bad for them, I have many other options.
I am a pretty plain & simple cook. Put a frozen prl roast into the crockpot-—add water—sprinkle garlic salt, Lawry’s salt & dry onions on the top of the frozen meat. Set it to low & walk away from it. 8-9 hours later, it pulls apart.
Did one yesterday & had neighbor come over & get 2 big slabs for his dinner & a couple of lunches at work. He loves it. He helps me with mechanical things on my 2 old vehicles, so I owe it to him.
I have used McCormick spices, and other everyday brands, along with Kroger house brands for all of my life—am now 77. I never even thought about buying special spices from a high end shop, even when I actually made money & could afford to do so.
However, I will be sure to never purchase from these jerks, and I will pass on that sentiment to anyone I know.
This isn’t even just pissing of possible customers-—it is shooting yourself in the foot. I say that as a bookkeeper who has done that kind of work for over 59 years.
