How did @GoyaFoods, CEO Bob Unanue (ooh-NON-new-a) respond to AOC's threatened boycott of his delicious foods? Well, he named her "employee of the month" for helping increase sales. Interesting man, & unafraid to speak of faith, family & patriotism:

For quite a while now, we've been treated to the demoralizing and unedifying spectacle of media outlets and corporations bowing down to the mob's cancel culture demands. Authors have been banned, editors fired, Trader Joe's products renamed, statues dragged down, and much more, merely because spoiled, entitled, college-educated snowflakes, secure in their victimhood, have said words or products hurt their feelings and made them feel "unsafe." Thankfully, after the first shock of this Maoist attack on American institutions, some are beginning to recover their backbones. First, Goya Foods stood up to the mob. Then Red Bull refused to back down....

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez   (D-N.Y.), who called for a boycott of the brand,” reports The Hill. Result?“Goya Foods is doing GREAT. The Radical Left smear machine backfired, people are buying like crazy!” (President Trump tweet, July 15).  Indeed, some have rebranded the boycott as a...

Papa John’s pizza chain founder John Schnatter said during a recent interview that Goya CEO Bob Unanue “should be able to speak his mind” and share his political opinions. "Everybody on the left keeps preaching diversity unless it's diversity of thought, diversity of philosophy, or diversity of ideology," Schnatter told Just the News. "And if you don't think a certain way, then you get persecuted. That's not diversity."

Goya Foods CEO Robert Unanue has faced boycott threats ever since videos circulated on social media last week of him saying “We’re all truly blessed … to have a leader like President Trump, who is a builder” during a Thursday Rose Garden ceremony announcing a “Hispanic Prosperity Initiative” that will, according to the White House, “improve Hispanic Americans’ access to educational and economic opportunities.” In the face of those threats, Unanue has vowed not to apologize and says he won’t back down, claiming the calls to boycott his company from Democratic politicians and their supporters amounted to attempts at “suppression...

According to the page’s listing, the money is being used to “support Trump & feed the hungry.”

Could Goya Foods be headed toward the Chick-fil-A effect, wherein the more leftists hate it, the more conservatives buy it? That may just well be the case. Following Goya CEO Robert Unanue’s expressed Trump support and the Left’s subsequent threats to boycott the (Hispanic-owned) company, customers have actually been buying the product as a counter-protest. This has been described as a “buy-cott.” According to Fox Business, the “buy-cott” began when radio host Mike Opelka encouraged people on Twitter to buy up $10 worth of Goya Food products. “My brother came up with a terrific idea and I am encouraging all...
