You finally got one right, SD. And I thank you for the correction. That leaves one compelling reason, at least for me, to not buy Heinz products. If you can show me that the Heinz family does not make substantial profit from its shares in the Heinz company, I'll drop my "boycott."

Good luck. And, by the way, I couldn't care less if Bush or anybody else owns stock in Heinz.

I can only argue that your action is irrational. Cause you haven't investigated the options.

Exactly. You like this boycott cause it feels good. It's inconsistent.

I can tell you this: don't reach for the Del Monte ketchup. Heinz and Del Monte swapped divisions around a year or two ago. Heinz shareholders also got interests in Del Monte and vice versa.

I wonder what else Teresa Heinz or some famous liberal might own. You might go hungry.
