The Heinz Endowments President Maxwell King and David Potorti, co-director at Peaceful Tomorrows, have repeatedly denied any link. While many talk shows have since backed away from those claims, Internet chat rooms are still buzzing with calls for a Heinz boycott.
Ummmm, were we wrong on this? Or is it the old two-step of A gives to B, B gives to C, so there is no connection of A and C...

Better to prepare meals from scratch and keep the fat and sodium low, anyway.

There may be no link whatsoever between Heinz ketchup money and Kerry...but it sure leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

is not on Heinz's board and is in no way involved with company management Except that she pipes gazillions of dollars to all kinds of communist and subversive causes? Sweat, Heinz. Sweat ketchup.

Heinz: Politics is not one of the 57 varieties But Heinz is involved in world politics.
Background: The product, Supplefer is manufactured at the Heinz factory in Italy.
Annan receives award from Heinz fund [Heinz product, Supplefer, distributed by UN, Annan gets award
<<<[At left] United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan samples rice sprinkled with H.J. Heinz Company's nutrient powder "Supplefer Sprinkles" along with Susie Johnson, the wife of Heinz Chairman William R. Johnson, during a presentaion at company headquarters yesterday afternoon.
"More than 140,000 children will be given the supplements in projects that are now proposed and ready to start worldwide." Most of this work will be done through the U.N. system.

1.Heinz manufactures product.
2. Annan and the UN make sure the product is distributed
3. Annan gets award from Heinz fund.
4. Annan delivers speech chiding US (aka, Bush administration)
I wonder if Heinz and Annan hoped to have Supplefer distributed to the starving Iraqi children.

First, why risk it? She is Heinz and must profit, directly or indirectly, from the good fortune of the company. Don't buy Heinz and, therefore, avoid enriching Kerry's second wife or anyone else around them.
Second, if Heinz is associated with Kerry, of course they'd lie about it, they are crap weasel dems.
Finally, it is fitting to use against Heinz Company the same tactic that Kerry's left wing union toadies use against management, an economic boycott. When unions use it, it hurts innocent customers and those who lose wages (never the union fat-cat bosses). There is nothing wrong with shutting down several Heinz plants as economic leverage. It is exactly what a union would do to squeeze a few pennies out of management. Of course, it is unlikely that any of Terry Kerry's Heinz plants are unionized. Does any one know for sure?

After my husband had a conversation with our local independant Grocery store, the owner said he wouldn't carry anymore Heinz products. Even 4%to the Kerry cash cow is too much. Obviously the owner, a right winger agrees....

Is Twerpy Teresa on the Board of Directors? If so then she and Ketchupman have a say on the direction of the company. Therefore, the company is involved in the political game.

Thanks to Teresa Heinz, my wife broke a lifelong ketchup relationship. On the first try, we found a store brand that's every bit as good as Heinz!

Just Saturday, I purchased a bottle of Hunt's, at Dollar General, for one dollar. The African Queen and her golddigger can write me off, business-wise.

As a measure of the company's open corporate culture, I am sure that every executive and accountant manager at HEINZ is writing a check to the Bush Campaign. Right?
