Target: Kraft Foods
Sponsored by: Kathleen J.



Kraft Foods, one of the country's largest snack food companies, recently took a stand on behalf of LGBT Americans. By posting a photo of a "rainbow Oreo" on its Facebook page to celebrate LGBT Pride Month, Kraft established itself as a company willing to act as a visible ally to the LGBT movement.

The image, which was captioned "Proudly support love," received over 150,000 likes in a few days. Kraft representatives maintained that the image was a "fun reflection of Kraft's values," but not every Facebook commenter was pleased. Many vowed to boycott Kraft products because of what they deemed "anti-family sentiment."

It might seem odd to get this worked up over a cookie. But at a time when many gay couples cannot legally marry or adopt children, visible solidarity from such a large corporation is nothing to take lightly.

Show the boycotters that Kraft has supporters, too! Tell Kraft: thanks for celebrating Pride Month in such a colorful way!
