Goya Foods boycott takes off after its CEO praises Trump

The hashtag #Goyaway was trending on social media after Robert Unanue, CEO of Goya Foods, appeared in the White House Rose Garden afternoon and praised President Donald Trump.
"We are all truly blessed … to have a leader like President Trump who is a builder," Unanue said during the Rose Garden speech. "We have an incredible builder, and we pray. We pray for our leadership, our president."
The fact that Unanue would associate with Trump was sufficient to anger some of America's most prominent Hispanic leaders.
CNN's Ana Navarro explains why many in the Latino community are upset.

  1. He has a right to praise the president he likes. We have a right to choose the brand of beans we buy.

    1. He has a right to Love ❤️ Trump__ And Consumers have the right to not to Love ❤️ his products. That is freedom…. Both Free Expressions.

    1. @Crimson Spirit That’s not really an American insult. Most American’s can’t spell or do math. I have been to other (not English as their first language) that can spell American English and understands the metric system better than most Americans. Jeffrey Poh, what Crimson really meant is you are ignorant!

    2. @Neat Gifts I’m a machinist and I fooking hate it when I get a print that’s in metric 😭 I try every now and then to really familiarize myself with it, because I know it’s a better system, but ugh. It wasn’t really taught to me as a kid and thus it’s just not something I can visualize with ease.

  2. Remember when republicans boycotted a product after the CEO praised Obama? Oh yeah, neither do I, because Obama didn’t require them to pledge their loyalty to the dear leader in order to let them deal with the government.

    1. STFU. GOYA has donated millions of pounds of food to the needy during this pandemic. What has your handout hero’s existence accomplished?

    1. How is this headline news? What, no little kid was shot today? CNN is not news. I read an article in the National Inquirer years ago about Bigfoot caught shitting in some yard and I found that way more informative than this decisive bullshit. Hope CNN folds and all those opinion reporters have to do a real days work.

    2. @Stephen Anderson Man, ya mind is broken… who ever wanted to be white? why you so racist? so many problems with your comment just reading it but it’s online and could just be a troll. doubt it is as I’ve seen dumber but you do you. lol

    3. @Stephen Anderson Yeah, whites did tell Latinos they were ‘white’ in Latin America, so Latinos could maintain their racist legacy for them. But in reality, whites Never accept persons mixed with darker races as white. Latinos are now finding out the hard way.
      Oh and, there’s No Such thing as WHITE ALLIES.

    1. @Mox Avenger Go buy them. No one stopping you. It’s a free country: free speech, free to boycott.

    2. @LoboKhan1 oh no some ome csnt copk ohh la de da some ones butt hurt now call him racist isnt that how you guys work

    1. @Neat Gifts la costeña causes diarrhea and tastes horrible. I’m Latino and I approve this message.

    1. Do your history. He made records for what he’s done for the good of the economy. Btw…he said illegal immigrants. Not immigrants. Stupid network twists and manipulates too much its sick. All for there narrative.
      Trump may be to brass for u softies but don’t pretend he broke America when in fact he did the opposite.

    1. Not really sure how this quote applies here about Goya. It’s wildly out of context…but keep parroting that canned contextual malfeasance, it looks good on you!

    2. There literally no way you cant belive this were on you tube it can be verified you cant just pick and chose what you want to fit you narrative lpl but i guess thats what happens when u think woth your emotions

    1. Good riddance. I’m sure the CEO really gives a flying eff. Sad that your blind hatred for Donald Trump gets in the way of the fact that millions of food were donated to those in need. But that’s Democrats for you. They manufacture and perpetuate the hate and violence, so they have an ongoing crisis that never gets solved, because they thrive off of the unfettered power it gives them and fulfills their narcissistic, twisted sense of pathological altruism.

    2. They’ll be somebody like me to cancel or boycott. Never had Goya. Good? Guess i’ll find out. If not I’ll donate to food bank.

    3. They’ll be so happy to hear from such an important person! We can buy whatever we want and boycott whatever we want. It’s a free country.

    1. photos and videos are from 2014 and during the obama administration if you do your research

    2. @ewald zieger its everyone’s responsibility. How can you run things when you have delusional Pelosi and her house saying you can’t do this and that? Its ridiculous how you people opperate!

    1. Eric Bradford and now you will see the bloodlust come out from CNN and their guests! Cancel culture at it’s finest! PATHETIC 🖕🏻

    2. A fool for meeting with Trump and other Hispanic leaders to discuss ways to improve lives of fellow Hispanics? Who’s the fool calling for a boycott of the leading supplier of free food to food banks in Hispanic communities? I would imagine his Grandfather is proud of what his descendants are doing and would spit in the face of the fool who wants to starve the very people she claims to support.

    1. Rather they didn’t take any PPL and go bankrupt thereby us Latinos losing a beloved brand that’s always been in our nana’s kitchens?

  3. I love all how all the Cult45 trolls are stating they will stock up on Goya foods.
    Trump rally – “Send them back!”
    (But leave your delicious food on the way out.)

    1. Ah, I see the confusion here. See, the CEO of Goya is an American citizen. Nobody is trying to “send back” legal immigrants, or people born in America. Just the ones that sneak in

    2. Lol. So many far right wingers are all, “I’M goInG tO BuY goYa PRoduCTs RiGht nOw!!!” I’m thinking, “Hmmmmm….you’re going to go down the same aisle you turn your nose up at, the aisle you normally walk past??? Ok.”

    3. Harvest Moon that doesn’t even make sense. Trying to pretend people don’t like Mexican food is dumb.

  4. Over the years I have boycotted many things due to various circumstances. Yes, everyone has the right to their own opinion; but racism is rampant in ‘this country and for the Hispanic community, this is a slap in the face!

    1. I don’t understand? Do you believe there is rampant Hispanic discrimination? Because there isn’t

    2. @Luis Martinez Hispanic refers to language, BTW. Latino, Latina, Latinx refers to Latin American ethnicity.

  5. Boycott Goya!!. I promise You I used to love Goya’s products, now I will get something else. Herdez products are now better.

  6. They’re full of chemicals. That’s when I stopped using their products. When reading the ingredients

    1. What major brand is not full of cancer, liver, kidney, and heart-damaging chemicals? Still, I get your point.

  7. “a builder”
    Yup one that stiffed his contractors after they finished building his buildings.
