Bill Penzey is the son of the founders of The Spice House, he broke from the family and started his own spice company.

He is a dumbass for bringing politics into his business. A great business owner should treat everyone equally regardless of their politics.

Number one rule in business, stay the fuck out of politics. In most businesses the Pareto rule is very much valid, 20 percent of customers create 80 percent of revenue.

You start being politically hostile to one group, you will cut deeply into your profits and probably you will go out of business in the long term.

Or at the very least you hurt your long term growth prospects. That is why Facebook lost almost 25 percent overnight from their stock value just last week. Those idiots were even bitching about the growth numbers in the call.
 Quoting: Big Lord


exactly.. business is not about politics or social engineering nor responsible to right all the wrongs in the world..

good products at the best possible price and honoring your customers and standing by your promises is what business is all about.

when and why da fruk did they ever go to the dark side?

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.

Just find an ethnic grocer. They often have top tier spices. Only marjoram or such might be hard to find.

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.

Fresh ground spices shipped to order from thespicehouse.com. As far as I know they are not political. Stupid penzeys is stupid.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81510001


Bullshit shill.

THE SPICEHOUSE.COM IS OWNED BY PENZEYS.

From thespicehouse.com....


The Spice House was born in post-war, fast-paced America by founders Bill Sr. and Ruth Penzey. They sited the business at the western terminus of America’s most storied shipping waterway, giving them a global reach as they aspired to source the world’s finest spices. Armed with a discerning palate, a love of foreign cultures, and an unrelenting obsession to unearth the finest growers of spices worldwide, they built their network. It was a labor of love, and everyone in the family was involved. Their daughter Patty grew up working in the store, wielding large stainless-steel scoops, operating old-style mills and sifters, and acquiring an encyclopedic knowledge of spices.

When the time came, Bill Sr. and Ruth passed ownership of The Spice House to the second generation—Patty Erd and her husband, Tom Erd. Patty and Tom infused the business with their own zeal and creativity, expanding to many more physical locations and bringing the business into the 21st century with the launch of thespicehouse.com. Frequently sought after as expert speakers and guests of honor at culinary events, Patty and Tom continued to build The Spice House’s reputation as a trusted purveyor of the freshest and highest quality spices. Under their leadership, The Spice House garnered coverage from premier cooking publications including Cook’s Illustrated and Bon Appetit, along with numerous accolades and awards.

I don't see how any business owner can be a liberal. I mean the taxes alone?!?? The paperwork, regulations, licensure & overbearing government?? It seems to me like any business owner would see it and be a conservative!

It was probably a matter of time before these businesses failed anyway with a liberal running them. Getting too political is like business mistake top 5.

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.


Less than 50%

as everybody can see the Pen&zey´s spice bottles are made of pure crystal glass - it means the spice gets rotten by the sunlight in a short time of ca 1 month or less. That is what &i tried to explain to some European companies producing peppershakers and spiceboxes - the glass (or acrylic, etc.) must be coloured either brown or blue to protect the spice from light or totally light-proof. I was not even worth answering.

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

At which time he'll blame conservatives.

Those who partake in their monies, will do so according to their rules.

This is an indisputable fact.

The IRS now taxes cryptos.
"But, it's not theirs to tax" you say.
That is true, but if you 'cash in' your crypto, it's converted to dollars and blam, they got you.


Bottom line here, if you want your freedoms back, Stop using their money.
And their cellphones,
And their cars,
And their houses,
And their guns,
Damn, can't you do anything for yourselves?
And their cloths,
And their food,
And their medical,
holy crap, you ain't never getting your freedoms back.
And their trash disposal services,
And their sewers,
Ok already, your Doomed.
