    The sitting president of the United States doing a commercial from the White House for a company headquartered in Puerto Rico - the same Perry Rico where he tossed rolls of paper towels to people after a hurricane destroyed their country.

    I always thought this was funny since like 99% of Trump supporters would rather die than ever buy anything from the “ethnic” food aisle at the grocery store lol

    The only reason this happened is because the CEO of Goya declared himself a Trump supporter.

      Damn, I really like several of their products but forgot all about the trump endorsement. I guess I have to go back to Aldi beans and a few other alternatives

      Same in our house, and we used to have all kinds of Goya stuff. Fortunately, it’s never been that high quality to begin with and can be easily replaced by alternatives.

    Ya know, I’m still kinda pissed that last summer I had some Goya cookies in my room and my dad had taken them probably thinking I wouldn’t notice they disappeared. It was only a couple left in the package, but I’m still pissed about it.

    Edit:

    After reading some of the comments here and all that, I have decided it’s not something I should hold a grudge for… Because of the brand, not because he’s my dad.
