I have been a customer of King Arthur Flour, now Baking Co first by mail order and now in my local supermarket since the late 1960’s.
Once again, I support Equal Opportunity, not the harmful to all humans narrative of Division, Exclusion & Inequity represented by their Pitchfest contest now in progress.
My comment today (2025-Jan-09) on the FB King Arthur Baking Company web page.
Apparently The King Arthur tag line: “Our mission is to inspire connection.” now needs to be changed to “Our mission is to inspire division.”
So now King Arthur is sponsoring politics of division – you just lost a customer – perhaps you should take a look at how such actions have effected other brands as well.
