My bride, among her other abilities, is a first rate cook. She received
this e-mail from Penzeys Spices:
And the results are in from Friday’s Racism Update Email. You may
remember this email was us re-sending our previous day’s email. In it we
kindly asked those who chose to cast their vote for an openly racist
candidate for the President of the United States to take responsibility
for their action. With the re-send we put the UNSUBSCRIBE BUTTON right
up on top for those needing to use it. We also hoped they would one day
come back. The final results are that 0.721% of those on our email list
chose to opt-out. 99.27% of you are still here. As I said Tuesday, I
love cooks. You are amazing people.
I also want to thank you for the tremendous support from all our
customers across the country. The incredibly written emails to me, the
support on our Facebook page, the defense of Penzeys in comment sections
across the internet—all of it has meant so incredibly much to me. After
so many of the far-right media world encouraged their supporters to send
their anger at me, I have to admit that I really had never been so
insulted in all my life, and I have a history of getting out there on
the internet. Without your incredible outpouring of support, I am sure
the results for me would have been very different. I am forever in your
debt. Thank you.
My bride sent an e-mail in response:
I deleted both the Thursday and Friday emails from Penzeys Spices. It
is none of Penzeys’s business who any of its customers choose to vote
for, or what the customers’ positions may be on any of the manifold
social issues Penzeys’ owners seem to be so passionate about. I
currently am trying to use up my current stock of spices in the cupboard
(both Penzeys and other brands), and therefore have not needed to order
from Penzeys in a long time. I would feel happier about ordering from
Penzeys in the future, however, if Penzeys would keep it all about the
spices and our shared love of cooking, and not insist on pushing the
owners’ political and social views upon the customers.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Catherine A. McClarey
Red Fascists run their businesses like Red Fascists. Bill Penzey, Jr. ,
the CEO of Penzey Spices, is about to learn a valuable lesson in
insulting half the country as a result of a personal snit fit about his
preferred candidate losing an election.

Last year, Charlie Sykes wrote about it for AM Radio, WTMJ – Bill
Penzey’s Idea Of Diversity: Lots of White People in Volkswagens:
We know that the owner of Penzey’s Spices is concerned about diversity,
because he says he does… repeatedly. Make that obsessively. In recent
company catalogues that purport to sell spices, Penzey has lashed out at
white racist suburbanites who vote for racist Republicans. He knows
that they are racists, because of the lack of “diversity.”
In the last year, Bill Penzey has offered letters denouncing the use of
Indian mascots at Mukwonago High School and bizarre letter in May that
denigrated the citizens of Waukesha for their ‘different way of
thinking” and “race-based politics.”
Now, Penzey had doubled down:
Segregation is no longer some grim-faced governor standing on the steps
of the Capitol shouting, “Segregation now-tomorrow-forever!” Segregation
today has grown into a multi-step process. It starts with the new, more
polished leaders who, with a smile, send ever-so-subtle messages that
America is a whites-first nation. Next, AM radio personalities turn that
smile to a sneer and pass it on to their listeners, who turn that sneer
into anger. That anger does an amazing job of producing lopsided vote
totals in places with little diversity, but it’s poison to everything
that is good in our lives and a roadblock across the path of Kindness
that leads to cooking.
Well, speaking of little diversity, local blogger Tom McMahon decided to
take a deeper look at Penzey-land. He emails:
Bill Penzey mentioned “places with little diversity” in his firm’s
Summer of Love 2014 catalog. But I went through all 64 pages of that
catalog and could not find a single photo of an African-American in the
whole thing. Sure, I found lots and lots of photos of white folks doing
white people stuff, but no African-Americans. Why? Is he afraid they
might scare off his lily-white clientele?
