Many took to social media to express their displeasure with Goya Foods CEO Robert Unanue after he praised President Trump at a White House event on Thursday, but others are flipping the narrative and calling for a Goya Foods "buy-cott.""My brother came up with a terrific idea and I am encouraging all to join me in purchasing $10 worth of Goya Foods products and donating them to your local food bank," self-described "conservatarian" radio host Mike Opelka wrote on Twitter. "Let's push a BUY-cott, not a boycott. Let's show the #Goyaway people what compassion can do.Opelka's post received 27,000 likes."Go out today and buy your Goya foods,"

I have been burned a few too many times by companies saying the right thing, and then folding a couple of days later under lie-beral fascist pressure.
I will never forget how the Susan G. Coleman Foundation folded to the murderers at Planned Parenthood. That cost me a $50 donation.
If Goya stands firm a couple of more days, I will be stocking up my pantry with their products!!!!!

I had put a can of S&W beans in my shopping cart yesterday. Then I swapped it out for a can of Goya beans. This was in support of Goya. I'm unaware of any reason I should have a problem with S&W.

It never ceases to amaze me how otherwise intelligent CEO's of corporations fold like cheap suits to BOTS from the left ! Any threat of boycott from a real live human being on the left should be taken with a grain of salt , after all the lefty bozos are notoriously cheap and most are in mom and dads basement.

I went to the Goya section at walmart and bought everything I though I would eat. Spent about $40 cause a loaded up for a good cause. I bought the malt beverage, UGH. Could not get through one small bottle. Anyone live in The Woodlands and want 5 free bottles of Goya malt beverage? Been scarfing the beans, cookies, olives!

I have never used them, but a number of excellent online food bloggers recommend them.
This stuff is nonsense.

I like the Goya version of Spam better than Spam.
And of course better than all the other similar products.
Hard to find though.

Only part of the article I disagree with is donating them to a food bank. The corrupt, lying media will portray it as people getting rid of the stuff in protest. Donate something else instead.
Went to the store the last 2 days and bought Goya. Never have before.

I bought several items yesterday. Would have bought more but numerous items were sold out. Apparently some other Deplorables got there before me.

Made a quick trip to Kroger today; in the Goya section I realized that I would have to go way outside my comfort zone to buy their major bean products. But I found their little section on cookies and glommbed right on to those! Nice little stacks of crackers; just right for a snack when you don't want to open a 5 pound sack of cookies. Just 8 to 10 vanilla cookies + chocolate frosting between. So reasonably priced, buy several!

Went to Publix today (Florida) for the express purpose to buy some Goya products. The Goya selection was close to being sold out.

I'll donate a few Goya items to my local food bank along with other items.
The people who get the food, live on a different intellectual level and have no clue about AOC's 'boycott.'

I bought some of their Adobo seasoning. They call it an all-purpose seasoning. It is so good! It's going to be a staple here.

Michele Obama call this gentleman from Goya to help in her food program and he graciously accepted and did what ever he could do.... Back then he was OK, but not now!!!! Yeah, I get some of his products when I go shopping on Wed.

Have used Goya products for years, in NH, All of their different types of beans , plus a few cans of tomato sauce and hamburg make a wonderful soup on a cold winter day. Plus, scrambled eggs and a side of thir hominy is wonderful, too.

And the "polls say Trump is losing ?? How about a poll where you pay to get in and get some really tasty food for your money. The hell with a Biden - Trump debate as much fun as that might be. I want to see a Biden - Unanue debate. Bambi v Godzilla.

A hearty middle finger to the Trump haters.

Good for those buying Goya in support. They are everywhere here. I would be disappointed if he did the Chick fil A flip on US.
