My partner is from Panama, and I had already from my years of living in Miami grown fond of Goya.

But that can change.

"Robert's brother Peter, who serves as Goya's executive vice president, gave $100,000 to the anti-abortion National Right to Life Victory fund in 2012. And other Unanue family members who are shareholders of Goya have given thousands of dollars to other, mostly Republican candidates and politicians, including Trump."
