[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know, but I just went to Giant and bought a lot more than I need for the coming week. I LOVE their canned beans, and for the first time, I looked at their other products. Came home with Goya olive oil and some spices.

I plan to continue to do so and will probably make a large purchase later in the week and donate to a food pantry.

Does anyone need a recipe?

Somebody's a little too excited about canned goods.  Your exuberance is not going to do Trump any good, and you'll last about as long at this as the average Trumper did fighting Covid.  [/quote]

Well, just for the record I'm a trained chef and I do home cooking, meals and cooking classes for the disadvantaged, kids and the elderly. So yes, I talk to them often about the nutritional value of canned beans, which is a shelf-stable product that is inexpensive and healthy for them to eat.

Only now, I will be firmly endorsing the Goya brand and telling them to look for Goya products, specifically.[/quote]

Alright, so basically you are going to tell your students that Goya beans are healthier because the CEO likes Trump.  Or something like that.  Just so they buy the beans that own the liberals.  My God, that's dumber than a boycott.  And unethical too.[/quote]

No. I never said that I will tell the participants in my classes that Goya beans are healthier. You made that up or are projecting your own anger here.

What I'll say is that CANNED BEANS (or dried beans) are a healthy, tasty, inexpensive and overall good thing to eat. We're going to work with some today in our class and guess what -- they'll happen to be Goya. When I give out printed recipes in English and Spanish, I will reference Goya brands. When I give samples for people to take home -- which I often purchase with my own money -- they will be Goya. So, it's a little promotion of a product and brand I really like. There is nothing unethical about that. People do it all the time.[/quote]

DP.  No, you said "only now" you'll be endorsong Goya.  Not because you lile them.  Because they like Trump.  That's unethical.[/quote]

Please. Beans are beans. No one can tell the difference in the brands by the way they taste.[/quote]

If beans are beans, then what's behind the big push for Goya?  I prefer the Goya beans myself, but not so much that I will sacrifice my values to continue to purchase them.[/quote]

Virtue signaling by beans.  So righteous!
