Oreo Pride: Rainbow-Stuffed Cookie Sparks Threats of Boycott - ABC News

Oreo Pride: Rainbow-Stuffed Cookie Sparks Threats of Boycott - ABC News: "Oreo is the latest in a string of juggernaut brands to show support for the LGBT community.
In honor of Pride month Target launched a line of gay pride t-shirts, and the proceeds went to support the Family Equality Council, a Washington D.C.-based gay rights advocacy group. The pride shirts sold out in less than a month.
Ben & Jerry’s, a longtime supporter of LGBT causes, renamed its apple pie flavor “Apple-y Ever After” in scoop shops throughout the U.K. in March, while the British government was debating legalizing same sex marriages.
The Vermont-based ice cream company re-vamped its peanut butter-filled pretzel flavor in 2009 when same sex marriage was being legalized in Vermont, swapping the “Chubby Hubby” name for “Hubby Hubby.”"

Look at how corporate money is corrupting our politics! Look what Citizens United has wrought! I call on liberals everywhere who hate the influence of corporations in politics to denounce and boycott these companies.
