I am guessing that everyone in the class knows that Barilla is a company that prides itself on homophobia. Never again will I look at that pasta and think "gosh gee wizz I want that pasta tonight!" No I say No!!! I actually started laughing when I read what Barilla has said about homosexuality. What kind of world are we living in when pasta companies hate the gays too!!! I didn't know how people would respond to the past company, but it seems that people are PISSED! I thought I would just let the class look at the ways in which pasta may seem straight, but after you give it some love and attention it flops any way ;).
I have to throw out there that I ate at Maggiano's, the best Italian restaurant in the world, a few days ago, to later find out that they definitely use Barilla pasta...
ReplyDeleteSeriously, what world do we live in when pasta companies hate the gays?!?!?! I mean, Chick-Fil-A was easy to give up because their chicken tastes like shit anyways. But it's REALLY hard when it's pasta I have eaten my entire life AND my favorite Italian restaurant serves it!
Ugh, I'm in a state of total conflict!
LOVE THIS LOVE THIS LOVE THIS
