This sort of boycott is incredibly silly.
As for the rest of you, if you want to suffer through watery crappy Hunt's ketchup, enjoy your soggy buns and lack of taste!
Just because her name is on it doesn't mean she controls it. Sure doesn't mean he has any access to it. Pretty sure there was a damn good prenup in that marriage.
Hell, i'm not boycotting Bush's baked beans just because they have the bush name on it!

AMEN.... do you have any idea how much the heinz foundation has contributed to educational and cultural institutions around this country? especially in pennsylvania?
furthermore, i feel far more inclined to question "ill gotten gains" from oil than from some freakin ketchup....
