Blue Bell ice cream? No way, José.
The use of the boycott in effect penalizes people and companies for political involvement. That can snowball, and the end result might be surprising.
Sounds like shopping around just got a little bit more complicated over there...
I draw the line at White Castle!
Okay, I'll print this list off and refer to it anytime I ... wait ... WAFFLE HOUSE????
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Blue Bell makes the best ice cream. I'm not boycotting it for anything!
Heidi - OK Blue Bell is an exception.
Angel - I think businesses should stay out of politics.
Amanda - I'll probably forget to check the list.
John - OK White castle is an exception like ice cream.
Jay - JEEEEEZ, OK Waffle House is an exception too. This boycott is going down the tubes.
Elvis - Heidi's got you covered on this one.
