If you go to the Goya website, you can leave feedback.

Here is mine:

I have been a loyal Goya customer for years and years. Now, I find I have bought my last Goya product. Your overt support for Trump and now the disgusting and illegal promotion by his daughter has ended my loyalty. You are a Latin food company and you support the man who puts Latin children in cages and bars Latinos from entering the country as asylum seekers. Shame on you. How do you sleep at night.

We are done.


They thanked me for my feedback. How nice.

You are right. We should NEVER make our thoughts about products known to the manufacturer Stinky The Clown Jul 2020 #9

Especially given the current socio/political atmosphere.

What is the CEO going to do, issue a phony apology? He's a rich man who inherited Goya from his father and obviously loves Trump. He will go on loving Trump. And I will go on not buying Goya.

I'm sorry for the employees but they are collateral damage. People who support and promote Trump have to be punished or we will all be collateral damage.

After all, we are each just one person.

Raindrops do not actually form puddles. Puddles do not form floods. Floods to not form lakes or oceans.

I apologize for trying and for telling you about it.

I selected the subject saying I was interested in purchasing products for my business. Figured it would go to a different screener than just regular customer service:

I have used a variety of Goya products for years. Now, I will no longer purchase any Goya products. Your overt support for Trump and now the disgusting and illegal promotion by his daughter has ended my loyalty. You are a Latin food company showing support for the man who kidnaps Latin children from their parents and puts them in cages and bars Latinos seeking asylum from entering the country. You are also homophobic and anti-choice. Shame on you. Your support for a racist, misogynist, homophobic, rapist, adulterer, liar, grifter on a large scale, criminal, failed businessman, ignoramus, etc., makes you as evil as the resident in the people's White House.

I have always bought Goya products, even when there were cheaper options at the grocery store, because of the quality of your food. I am no longer a customer. Mr. Unanue's support for Donald Trump, saying we are "blessed" to have him as our leader, and Ivanka Trump's unethical promotion of your product on Twitter have disgusted me. You see a man who calls Mexicans rapists, who keeps children in cages, and who is racist, and you still support him? How blessed are the people seeking asylum? How blessed are the babies who will never know their parents, the mothers who had nursing babies ripped away from them by Trump's diabolical regime?

You whine about freedom of speech. You have the right to say what you want, and I have the right to find another company to support.
