A Post It note from DUer duhneece

[Omaha Steve]

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. Thanks for showing us her excellent idea, my dear Omaha Steve! Greatly appreciated. n/t

[brewens]

2. I won't make any difference. I buy Cream of Wheat and store brand whole oats. I will check to see if

I can tell if those come from one of their plants, but I probably wouldn't need more before the strike is settled. I stocked up on that kind of thing at the start of the pandemic and have only replaced what I used. I'm good for six months or so. I sure hope they win before that.

44. Kellogs does more than breakfast cereal

a part of their list of products:

Pringles
Pop Tarts
Cheeze-It
Club crackers.
Town house Crackers
Austin Crackers
Zesta crackers
And Morningstar fake meat products.


Cream of wheat is a Hershey product, best i can tell

[geardaddy]

47. Thanks for the list

I'll be boycotting those items as well!

[quakerboy]

52. I understand

some Coke workers have also gone on strike recently. for those that follow such things

[MLAA]

3. Way to go Duhneece! And thanks for posting Omaha Steve.

[duhneece]

4. Thank you, OS.

Hubby is struggling with super-bad vertigo after a fall 6 months ago and now he’s 95% disabled..doctors, tests and all that keeps us busy… and I’m pursuing possible wrong-doing by our county Republican chair on Election Day. Being an activist keeps us all busy and attempting to be creative

[irisblue]

5. Morning Star Farms products as well

[luckone]

6. Kellogg's family of brands I don't eat like this so I'm good but see below

https://www.kelloggs.com/en_US/ourfoods.html

[Iggo]

35. Raisin Bran and Cheez-Itz

That’s gonna hurt.

Oh well. That’s how it goes with boycotts. I used to love chic-fil-a chicken sandwiches, too. I learned to live without.

[The Polack MSgt]

7. Kellog's Scab Flakes.

Screw 'em

[AllaN01Bear]

8. boycott table grapes, kellogs and denneys pernamanty.

[SCantiGOP]

9. Table grapes?

I remember one of Tom Wolfe’ books where they were boycotting table grapes in the 60s. Didn’t know that was still going on.

[No Vested Interest]

11. I thought most of our table grapes come from Chile.

[SCantiGOP]

12. Don't know

The boycott in the 60s was to support Cesar Chavez and the farm workers attempts to unionize. I remember in the book that there was a dinner at the Kennedy White House where they announced that grapes would not be served.

[TexasBushwhacker]

27. Off season yes

[wnylib]

45. Around here they come from

local vineyards and occasional wild vines.

When I was a kid we had a vine growing up the side of our garage.

[DENVERPOPS]

10. The reality is

that if you boycotted every asshole corporation in the U.S. you wouldn't be able to buy anything...........

[SCantiGOP]

14. Ben and Jerry's

You could eat nothing but that until your heart attack in about two weeks.

[DENVERPOPS]

15. of course

but you would need a napkin and a huge chunk of the paper products industry is owned by the Koch brother that didn't die.....
TP, Paper Towels, Napkins, Paper plates, etc etc etc......

[yellowdogintexas]

17. Charmin, Scott and P & G are not Koch/ Costco gets their

TP from P & G.

Boise Cascade is one of the non Koch paper companies; I make sure any printer paper I buy is from there.

[duhneece]

41. I needed this list...I can never remember and the lists I print get wrinkled before I get a chancell

Thank you.

[Escurumbele]

18. Nor true. Eat more vegetables, don't buy process food, buy organic vegetables and meats

We have adopted a diet, which is not for the sole purpose of loosing weight, that is just a bonus, it is more to eat healthy and regenerate a lot of what bad food has sickened.

My brother-in-law went from size 42 to size 34, my sister-in-law went from size 14 to size 8, my wife lost 12 lbs...I am the only one who has not lost anything, but then again I don't have a lot to loose weight wise.

The other bonus is that we have reduced are monthly expenses in food by 2/3s, we now spend just 1/3 of what we used to. Our garbage is the same, from two bags we have gone to one, recycle went from three bins to one...Our compost is the one that has grown a bit, but that is a good thing.

Change your diet, become healthy, loose weight, save money, and we will all force the food industry to do better, organic food will become more available, and cheaper.

By the way, part of this diet demands eliminating carbs like bread, pasta, rice. I thought it was going to be hard, but it is not. There are substitutes for everything, you will not miss any of it in a few months.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

32. Im on a keto diet

Does wonders to control my diabeties. Also lost a ton of weight and still losing.

Its not all organic but I mostly eat meat(try to get organic farm raised meat) and veggies and a tiny bit of fruit.

[Sanity Claws]

20. You couldn't buy processed food for sure

but you could make a lot of things from scratch. You may not completely avoid every asshole corporation but you would definitely decrease your patronage of asshole corporations.

[calimary]

13. Good to know.

Thanks for the reminder!

[Escurumbele]

16. And I say...Don't only stop buying because of that, Kellogg's cereals are bad for your health, its a

win win to boycott it.

I cannot remember when I stopped buying Kellogg's products.

[TexasBushwhacker]

28. Eating lots of carbs made sense when we were mostly

subsistence farmers or working in factories. You needed the quick energy carbs provide. Fir most of us now, that isn't the case.

[yellowdogintexas]

19. Cheez-its!!! The horror. I love those damn things

Don't buy them because I will eat the whole box though/

Sometimes we will split a small bag on a road trip

[Sympthsical]

21. Right?

I've been doing keto since spring and am just about to come off it at the end of the year. I've been staring at that Costco box of Cheez-Its something fierce.

[JohnnyRingo]

22. It's not like there aren't other choices.

For every cereal Kelloggs makes, Post makes a copy.

[geardaddy]

48. And General Mills

[JohnnyRingo]

49. Actually, who needs Kelloggs at all....

...as long as Krispy Kreme keeps making donuts.
hahaha

[geardaddy]

50. If you can get 'em.

I buy local donut shop donuts.

[onecaliberal]

23. They are dead to me. I will NEVER buy anything else from them.

[soldierant]

31. I had the idea that the boycott should last

as long as the bad behavior lasts, and not longer.

If it keeps going beyond that, then it still sends a massage, but not the one the botcott was intended to send.

Of course, with some companies, like Nestle, one form of bad behavior just gets replaced with another ad infinitum.

[onecaliberal]

34. As far as I'm concerned if they checked their moral at the door when

It was convenient, I wont forget their sudden change of heart.
These business are just like dump, everything is transactional.

[soldierant]

36. Fair enough.

We all have to call it the way we see it.

[wnylib]

46. What about the jobs of the

employees once the strike is over?

[FakeNoose]

24. OK I'm on board with this

[crickets]

30. 💙💙💙

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

25. Not a problem.

I last bought cereal when my sons were still young and living at home. And when I did, it was the least sugared kind I could find.

[PatrickforB]

26. I gotcha. I will honor the strike! Thank you for posting this. n/t

[duhneece]

37. The more we know, the better we do nt

[3Hotdogs]

33. I wish I ate the shit

so I could stop buying the shit.

[NurseJackie]

38. That hurts the store, not Kelloggs... it seems.

Kelloggs already has received payment for the products on the shelves, haven't they?

[Omaha Steve]

39. The store won't restock what doesn't sell

It does hurt Kellogg's.

[NurseJackie]

42. The store won't restock Kellogg's at all...

39. The store won't restock what doesn't sell

The store won't restock Kellogg's at all the strike has disrupted the supply chain. There's no Kellogg's product at the distributors.

It does hurt Kellogg's.

No, the strike hurts Kellogg's... but not buying existing product hurts the stores. It's not about "reordering" or "re-stocking"... this is only about what the store has ALREADY spent on product. If it rots on the shelf, then the STORE loses money, not Kelloggs.

[Omaha Steve]

43. We just disagree

[NurseJackie]

51. No. You're wrong. It hurts the store more than it hurts Kelloggs.

We just disagree

[lark]

40. You got it!

No Kelloggs for us!! Luckily, my fave is made by Post not Kelloggs.

[BannonsLiver]

53. Boy it's are generally dumb and ineffective
