Penzey's! Is this ok for Gen Discussion?

[Easterncedar]

Hi, all. I love Penzey’s and was a fan long before they became such a strong voice for our democracy. I just want to suggest that folks check out their website and sign up for their newsletter. It’s inspirational!

AND note that giftcards are on sale right now. I buy them and use them for myself sometimes, and enjoy giving them as gifts, too. And if someone gets one and doesn’t use it (hah, silly people) it works as a donation to a company that is doing real, true good in the world!

1. What is Penzys. I Googled and came up with spices. How does this relate to politics.

Penzeys

Might help if you offered a link. Just saying.

5. They are also a strong voice on the left

Here is from their latest e-mail:

Through tomorrow we’re also offering up to ten of our regularly $2.49 Convention-themed trial bags of Twilight Revolution for just $1 each with each $1 going to groups working to protect and restore Women’s Rights. Please buy ten and share.

There are so many groups the Republicans are out to hurt right now. The piece that pretty much ties them all together is women. And with the way it’s been the women’s vote pretty much every election these last four years saving us from the cruelty that has overtaken the Republican party, we think it past time to send them more support.

In our stores or online at penzeys.com, no coupons or codes are needed for any of these offers. Buy $50 Gift Cards for $35, with three the $18.95 January Six box automatically gets added as does the free Choose Love mug with any purchase. The $26.95 Care Gift Box automatically becomes $10 just by buying it, just like the $2.49 Twilight Revolutions become $1. This is all so easy.

6. If you live near Orlando they have a new store there. I'm too far away to go, but I love his newsletters.

He is 100% Democratic and the company's spices etc are really great. Each day he writes something about politics in his newsletter. Last week he collected 10,000 or more small packets of his Revolution ( I think) spice and gave them out to people in Milwaukee during the convention.

7. The spice company Penzeys is openly, outspokenly anti-Republican.

It's a reputable company that sells fresh spices. What makes them special is that their opinions about the Republican Party are all over their website and products. They have a spice mix called Outrage remembering Jan 6, for instance. I have a bottle in my kitchen.

They have a blurb on their website that literally tells Republicans not to buy their products.

13. Sorry! You are right

I was hasty. Yes, it’s spices - and activism!
The link is as provided above.

10. Thank you all for the information. Not much of a cook so was not aware of Penzey's Spices.

Will look into their Democratic party support.

12. I have purchased from them for years. Bill Penzey is the best kind of business owner and

a very sincere DEM activist. Vietnamese (Saigon) Cinnamon—the very best—need to reorder.
