And I can confirm I will never buy another Sargento product again. I am writing to Barbara Gannon and I urge other Freepers to do so too
Sargento can stuff their cheese up their noses for all I care. I won’t buy it.
Can someone please tell me why when a white man says a black man (who shows every evidence of it) is racist, there is all this hoopla—and when a black man, like, let’s say, a black professor, FALSELY calls a white man, like, let’s say, a policeman, a racist, everyone in the media and liberal la-la-land nodes their heads and agrees?
Barbara Gannon,
After reading this article I would like to inform you and your company that I will never buy Sargento Cheese or any of the products you sell..also I will be sending this article around the Internet to friends and ask them to do the same..Along with several hundred people I know ..I really think you will be losing lots of business..I really hope you people know what you are doing..
Glenn is right Obama and his friend Henry are a racist and the American people are waking up to that fact..

I just saw this on another site, and I’m using it:
“I think I need to send Sargento a little note letting them know that I will no longer be buying their products because I do not want to be associated with a company that is that incredibly stupid and gives in to the racist pressure of a racist group like ‘’Color of Change’’.

Drat. I liked Sargento’s Mexican mix. But, there ARE alteratives.
Not that I would know, but does Sargento advertise on MSNBC?
I am trying to make a list of all the products that these companies make. Perhaps we can start a thread that lists them individually once we can confirm these companies pulled their adds.
Another idea...I get a lot of junk mail from Geico and Progressive. From now on, rather than pitch it in the trash, I am going to send the mail back to them and let them pay the return postage.
Once the list is verified, we can send emails to all of our contacts with the product names.
Unfortunately SC Johnson is one of those products that is really hard to avoid.
I have been called a racist redneck teabagger because I stopped by a Tea Party Protest.
Sargento should be concerned about that.
I always buy Sargento....I prefer it over all other brands.
But are you really condemning the Glenn Beck show?
Did you consider the same action when people like Olberman and Matthews were promoting the same sort of labeling towards G. Bush?
Now, I feel the Bush congress and administration failed this country in many ways.....but why are you ‘taking a stand’ in this case when you have historically ignored other ‘ranters’ on CNN and MSNBC? Coteries of activists and ideologues seem to have more influence on certain entities than does the truth.
If you look at the ratings you certainly reach more people with Glenn Beck than an of the other programs in the same time slot.

I can easily convert my taste to the freshly sliced deli cheeses.
respectfully submitted,
We already avoid most SC Johnson products for other reasons and have never used any Sargento. However we won’t ever look to either company for products in the future.
Sargento just received a piece of my mind.
Cheese making surrender monkeys.
I don’t think they sell Sargento at the Whole Food Grocery Store, which is where I shop!
What brand of sandwich-style cheese would make a good replacement?
Also, address of Sargento?
Did he really say this? I missed that particular show but I have a hard time believing that Glenn simply said those things without putting them in the context of the overall debate on racism, or comparing them to the race-baiters like Jackson, Sharpton, et al, who play the race card at every opportunity.
Pointing out that the president railed against white cops on national tv and is by extension racist is hardly hate speech.
“We market our products to people regardless of their political affiliations, yet we do not want to be associated with hateful speech used by either liberal or conservative television hosts.”
Hateful speech? OMG, this is getting ridiculous. Beck expressed his views based upon Obama’s actions, words, books and life associations. There is nothing “hateful” here, it is fact.
I emailed them all!
