I have no doubt that Beck has more fans than detractors, I'll make sure to let Omaha Steaks know that, and I'll boycott them.

They made 1/2 of their customers happy - idiots.

No one is going to start buying their overpriced garbage just because they stopped advertising on Beck, but a lot of current customers will stop.

No intelligent management would ever put their company at the center of controversy.

Does anyone have the list of Beck Advertisers that have stopped because of “stop beck” efforts. I would like to make sure I don’t purchase their products.

Omaha steaks are awful anyway.

My response to their customer service.

Hey Ohamabama, your steaks suck. Tiny and not worth the cows life. A local butcher or Sams Club will put you to shame every time. Glad you aren't with Beck any more and I have advised my customers that send me your crap to switch brands. Many have agreed. Your bed sleep in it.

I have trouble believing this. Has it been verified?

Well that’s weird. I was going to buy a bunch of beef jerky and some steaks tomorrow.

I’ll just order something else online.

We've given up beef and turned entirely to lean pork, turkey, chicken and lots of salmon.

I'd boycot these guys but they don't sell anything I want.

Maybe I can boycot somebody else.

I Just sent this email to Omaha Steaks.

“I understand you have pulled your advertisement from the Glenn Beck show on Fox New. If this is true, I will never eat another of your products. And, I bet I can get at least 10 of my friends to do the same.”

If this is true, we need a national boycott of all Omaha products. We need to find out if they supply meat to restaurant vendors and boycott those restaurants that use those vendors.

Messaged Omaha Steaks... part of my message-

Your “review and consideration” was poorly done, and will likely result in conservatives, who DO eat beef, from purchasing your products. Perhaps you should look at the
people doing this “review and consideration”, because it is apparent that they are putting their liberal ideology ahead of the interests of your company.

I called them. Took the 2nd Supervisor to find anyone who knew, but the lady said yes, they had pulled their ads on Fox because they were being played during the Beck program and that they assumed then that they were supporting his political views and that was a “no, no” for Omaha Steaks...they are apolitical, don’t you know...see another post here re: contributions by Omaha Steaks to the Demoncratic party. Need to heat up their lines...I got through too quickly!

Dear Omaha Steaks. I’ll not buy an Omaha Steak because you are idiots. You think that a flippin’ opinion program on a news network has something to do with eating steaks.

That alone means you are too stupid to be trusted not to injure someone. I don’t think I’ll trust my health to such decision-making prowess.

One more thing: forever after when I hear “Omaha Steak”, I will think “political agenda.” Aren’t you glad you made such a big impression?

I don’t even listen to Beck and I’ll support the anti-Omaha Steak boycott.

I have always liked good steaks, porterhouse is my favorite.

I once ordered a selection just to try them out. I grilled a couple of them for myself and my daughter. When we sat down to dinner, we took a bite and both began laughing. They were tough. I mean just plain tough.

Our local supermarket has much better beef. I once asked the butcher and he said they get it from MBPXL in Dodge City, KS. It is just choice but it is always good.

Interestingly, everything else they included in the package was good, especially the hamburgers. Still I will never try them again.

I will no longer purchase tasty steaks from Omaha. Anybody have another source for piles of filet mignon by internet/mail?

Glad you told me. I was going to send out over $2,000 in steaks from Omaha Steaks to my customers and friends. Guess what. I didn’t pull the trigger on the order and will give my steak order this year to the Kansas City Steak Company http://www.kansascitysteaks.com/?gclid=CN6KkO6R8qUCFQGe7QodL0odog

Omaha Steaks remember one thing. Glenn Becks listeners and viewers are meat eaters and The DemoRats are Veggies. So go sell them some ToFu Steaks.

They mail crappy steaks anyway, so why would anyone buy them a second time. We ordered some steaks, they were all different sizes and thicknesses. They were not the cream of the crop as they advertised. Besides they were not marbled, so tough as shoe leather.
