Penzey Spice Co. Self-Destructs With "Republican's Are Racist Weekend"!
More get woke....go broke!

AWisconsin-based spice company's "Republicans Are Racists Weekend!" held on the weekend of Martin Luther King Jr. Day has mired the company in controversy leading to a boycott of thousands of customers, but the company is not apologizing.

On January 14, Penzey's Spices sent an advertisement to its email list signed by company CEO Bill Penzey announcing the sale where customers would get a half-cup jar of spice for free with a $10 purchase.

On January 28, Penzey said in a signed post on the company's Facebook page that Penzey's Spices had lost more than 40,000 subscribers from its email list as a result.

I rep Wisconsin and I love to shop at locally owned business. Penzey's has a location next to the locally owned Butcher Shop I buy local grass-fed beef at.

I used to stop in Penzey's a few times a year for spices, but no more. I saw the letter when it first went out and it was worse than what is being reported. Owner did not just call Republicans Racist, he said anyone who has ever supported a Republican is a Racist.

Fuck Penzey's Spices.

The owner sounds like a crazed leftist full of mis/dis-information:


Penzey's message also said that Republicans "lied and said BLM wasn't a peaceful movement but instead terrorists inciting violence throughout the country and then raced out to buy a crapload of guns because maybe they were finally going to get their chance to shoot a Black person? What a bunch of racists."

"If you can't even begin to fathom how to 'compromise' with January 6th, or the Republican vaccine lies needlessly killing 10,000 Americans every week, if you have no desire to become half-way racist, and if their intent to destroy our climate for one thousand years to come doesn't have you asking: "What if we just destroyed it for five-hundred years instead?" we would be better off with you on this Voice Of Cooking email list. Please come be a part of shaping a better world filled with every kind of very kind people. There is no more time to lose," the post read.

Two years ago I was on their email list because I have purchased their products, and they are great, but they started this far left propaganda and instead of spending hundreds of dollars on Christmas gifts as I had intended to do, I sent an email to their president and said that alienating 50 percent of the population was a stupid move.

Same here, Penzey gets loonier by the month it seems.

He won't be happy until he puts himself out of business.

At which time he'll blame conservatives.

That’s the irony.

He will be utterly unable to see that he is responsible for his own demise.

Leftists are incapable of accepting responsibility for their actions.

Since the summer, I stopped visiting their store close to me in MA. I was convinced they were putting expired/less potent spices out. Since they were quite expensive, I researched where they sourced their spices. You guessed it- many are from China.

I now buy from other companies (which, LOL, usually source from the same places). Not paying 5 bucks for a small jar of their powdered, roasted garlic any longer.

Plus, and this is a big issue for me, the caps on their bottles are total crap! If they just knock against a glass spice jar next to them? Crack! Let alone fall 10" out of a cabinet onto the counter... *shatter*

So fuck them. And we used to buy about $500 of spices from them a year, due to some specialty foods we make for family at certain holidays. Cardamom pods, crystallized ginger, etc... Ugh. Started buying a lot of our baking spices from King Arthur Flour, in Vermont.

And of course the underlying premise is that ALL white people are inherently racist. From the instant we pop of of the woo-whooo. According to Critical Race 'Theory'. Thanks CRT.

That sentiment in itself is the very definition of racism.

But that's old ground.

But worth emphasizing.
