Penzeys, a Wisconsin-based spice retailer, has accused the Republican Party of embracing racism for backing Donald Trump.

“The open embrace of racism by the Republican party in this election is now unleashing a wave of ugliness unseen in this country for decades,” wrote Penzeys CEO Bill Penzey in an email to customers. “The American people are taking notice.”

A LOT of Republicans like to cook.

This CEO has behaved in a very irresponsible way towards his shareholders, who rely upon the goodwill of customers to protect their investment.

Drop them and e-mall like I just did:

customerservice@penzeys.com

I told them I just threw out everything we had from them (true statement) and would never purchase anything from them again.

“The open embrace of racism by the Republican party in this election is now unleashing a wave of “The open embrace of racism by the Republican party in this election is now unleashing a wave of ugliness unseen in this country for decades,”

The Ugliness is the DEMONRAT PARTY, Black Thugs Matter, Social Justice Warriors, and Whiney,snivveling,bratty college kids that are incapable of managing their emotions, let alone their lives.

There has not been this much “ugliness unseen in this country for decades,” since the Republicans Freed the Democrats Slaves.

I quit buying from his company in March of last year. He hasn’t learned a thing. More customers will see him for what he is, and go elsewhere. The good news is that there are many great spice companies. My post and email to him then:

Penzeys Shows Me its True Colors

Frangibled to All:

This is not the first time I have seen the owner of Penzey’s preach his views to his customers. The first was a very radical pro-gay message via email, and in his catalogs. Here is my email to Bill Penzey after receiving his email today:

“Dear Mr. Penzey,

We love your products. Have purchased them for years, sent them as gifts, etc.

I defend your right to your opinion. I do not appreciate you using your customer base for a soap box. This is the second time I’ve seen you do this. I don’t like it.

Are you prepared to lose 50% your customers? Half of America disagrees with you. You have worked hard to be a successful business; remember, you are not the only spice source. “Love people, cook them tasty food” does not mean shove your political views down our throats.”
