There’s a boycott of Barilla noodles going on right now because the CEO of Barilla has declared they would not have a gay family in any of their ads for the following reasons:
“I would never do (a commercial) with a homosexual family, not for lack of respect but because we don’t agree with them. Ours is a classic family where the woman plays a fundamental role,” Barilla, 55, said in an interview with Radio 24 on Wednesday.
That’s right dudes. Your noodles are not worthy of touching the epicness that is a Barilla product. I’ve purchased their pasta shells and spaghetti noodles for a good number of years now. I’m not gay or transgender or anything, but that doesn’t mean that I will be the average mindless consumer and purchase something that supports this lame fuckass.
