But I think I will give them just about as much time as Komen gave planned parenthood.

since before Christmas...the impasse was reached this week.

Write your letters, avoid the pink packaging, and have a little bit of patience.

And if not, well, in good conscience you cannot buy their products anymore.

on account of their sucky HFCS-laden yogurt. I don't need HFCS (or other sugars) in my dairy products, whether it's yogurt, cheese or milk.

Greek yogurt like Chobani is so much better anyway. Higher protein, no sucky HFCS and if you eat it plain with frozen blueberries--yum

Will not eat any generic brand. That's the only General Mills Product I buy. I don't eat spoiled milk products.

What they call 'yogurt' isn't yogurt at all; 70% is a combination of sugar and high fructose corn syrup. Just not healthy.
