Boycott Kellogg’s!

Two Scoops of Bullsh*t - Kellogg’s Drops Phelps

Perhaps you’ve heard by now that Olympic champion Michael Phelps was photographed holding a bong at a University of South Carolina house party last November.

 

Now, given that smoking marijuana out of competition is not considered an offense by the World Anti-Doping Agency and the International Olympic Committee cleared the world’s greatest swimmer of any infraction, it stands to reason that the case would be closed and we could all go about photoshopping Michael Phelps on a box of ‘Weedies’ with a gold medal and spliff until we wore ourselves out. Right?

 

Well, not exactly. Effective Thursday February 6, Phelps was suspended for three months by USA Swimming, the national governing body for the sport – banning him from competition and cutting off financial support. According to USA Swimming:

 

“This is not a situation where any anti-doping rule was violated, but we decided to send a strong message to Michael because he disappointed so many people.”

 

That’s right. He didn’t break any rule. His suspension is disappointment based. Phelps hit a bong, made God cry and now must suffer shame. Fine. Whatever. This is a hypocritical and cowardly move but the truth is Phelps will recover from this suspension. He’ll continue training and preparing himself to dominate in Rome this summer. So, case closed, right?

 

Um, nope. On the same day, one of Phelps’s major sponsors, Kellogg Co. decided not to renew its sponsorship contract with the 14-time gold medal champ.

 
To us, this sounds like two scoops of bullshit.
 

At best it’s a slippery slope. Without immediate public response, other companies may follow Kellogg’s example and cast off the 23-year-old Phelps simply for smoking pot. Keep in mind Phelps had been sponsored by Kellogg Co. despite being arrested for drunk driving at the age of 19.

 

If you’d like to send a message to Kellogg, please go to NORML where you will find a variety of ways to get in touch with the company and let them know you disapprove of their actions and will be boycotting their products.

Kellog's advertises primarily to children. Kellog's is just watching their backs. You would do the same. Did you know that Kellog's is located in Battle Creek Michigan who voted Medical Marijuana in before most other states. They even have a distributary right Downtown. The only thing Micheal Phelps did wrong is get caught. If he had have been caught yelling drunk on international drive in Orlando or running Naked with super models down park in New York Kellog's would have let him go.

I think this calls for action from weed smoking North American farmers. We need to up the prices of the grain that these guys make 2000% profit off of through their automated processing plants, or go back to the good old days and open up localized flower mills, so the local citizens can make their own bread.
It's offensive that Kellog's would go ahead and with hold its bulging pocket book for the government, especially without acknowledging the financial gain/trouble the company could have faced had they not done so. Or is it that they get a little tax cut or extra bread from uncle sam for their act of terrorism? You know those 2000% profit companies using automated processing facilities, always lookin for a way for their hard work to give them more money.

It should be the person driving the new car or some such bullshit. Does anyone remember what we used to do to narc's in the 70's? Michael's real friends should be able to find out who the person is. He is still the best swimmer ever! God speed Michael.

Kellogg's Sugar Frosted Corn flakes are dangerous to the health of children and adults, adults can fend for themselves. Sugar (white powdery extracted concentrated substance) is a nutrient deficient substance (not food) that sets the stage for rapid fungus and cancer growth by feeding them (knowthecause.com). Sugar may be the first gateway drug your child ingests, second Ritalin then Meth. How many kids you know have been down this road (deceptive practice and lies work together to destroy our children). Corn is infested with fungus naturally and in silos(FDA) (consumption of corn should be extremely limited aside from poverty and survival, but never at $5 a box). The fungus can’t be separated or controlled in the storage process(FDA). So corn (in this case flakes) carries fungus into the body and sugar feeds it and helps it thrive in the presents of low immunity. Corn and sugar should be controlled substances according to wacko law. Cannabis seed has more nutritional value than corn or sugar or both combined. Corn and sugar have no medicinal uses, sugar also has addictive properties. I think I'll go have a cup of coffee with some animal fat and sugar, my most used and abused drug. He! He! History has proven cannabis does more good than harm (Justification Law clause), be careful cannabis has only been used and studied for about 5000 years(1,825,000 days) or so (meaning not much is known about this substance according the adversary we need more time for study). Do we need more government control or freedom of choice as long as no rights are being violated? Soon you might not be able get legal sugar under a new health code or criminal law. Hurry someone stupid (no offense just a point) light a cigarette for me because I don't smoke, before it's illegal. By the way can a palm full of Corn Flakes or Rice Krispies sustain life for even a day? A palm full of cannabis (A.K.A hemp, marijuana, ganja all one plant, different names) seed can. The leaves of the trees are for our healing, but not natural ones. Kellogg loves money not children or you. Eat nuts, SEEDS whole grains and fresh fruit and veges, not processed cereal, you'll live longer and healthier. Ye! going to eat processed grain flakes (with added synthetic vitamins and you don't know what's) and suck on a cows tit for food. Something is wrong with this picture if I'm not dying of starvation? Processed cereal is a scam. Ignorance is a lack of knowledge of a subject, Stupidity is knowing the truth about said subject, but denying the truth (in this case for greed not values).

Kellogg Co. recently fired Michael Phelps for admitting he smoked marijuana (after a picture of him taking a bong hit came out on the press). This is a decision that would have been absolutely justified in 1955. But this is 2009. No one gives a damn. In fact, they are more likely to lose customers than gain them by making such a public display of their displeasure.

You know how many people have smoked marijuana in America? A whopping 42%. That is a huge chunk of the country Kellogg has just personally insulted because they are saying implicitly that their behavior is so wrong that they would fire them over it.
But what's worse is the even larger percentage who don't care if anyone else smokes marijuana and are turned off by anyone else who judges them for it. Now, I'm not a pothead. I don't think hemp is the answer for all of our problems (you know someone smokes a lot of pot when they feverishly tell you that you can make pants out of hemp - yes, but is that what you do with it?) . But I - and everyone else I know - could not possibly care less if someone else wants to smoke pot.

Yes, there is still a certain percentage of the country that is mental about this. They have no problem if their son drinks two gallons of alcohol, but a joint and they lose it. I think this is a cultural thing more than anything else. I think pot represents hippies, liberals and all that's wrong with America to them. And yes, this is about 25% of the country.

But what about the other 75%? You annoy them when you side with the prudish minority. You offend their sensibilities when you kowtow to the puritan zealots. Every single person I have spoken to says they are less likely to buy Kellogg products now that they have fired Michael Phelps. Not because we love Michael Phelps, not because we think you can make pants out of hemp, but because it seems like they are choosing sides in the culture war. And it's the wrong side.

Now, advertisers are scared to death of doing anything political. But this firing is political. You are choosing sides with the minority of the country that cares about so-called moral improprieties like this. As a business, is that the side you want to be on? Do you really want to go against the interest of the sizeable majority?

The country has changed dramatically since the 1950's. And it appears the only people who haven't caught on to this are advertisers. You are no longer protecting your brand when you are prudish and overly careful. You just seem out of touch. Ozzie and Harriet don't exist anymore, so why are you still trying to sell them products?

Unfortunately, this outmoded way of thinking for the advertisers has enormous implications for our media, too. The sponsors are the boss. If they want plain, vanilla, boring, unchallenging programming - that is exactly what they'll get. They are scared to death of advertising in anything that pushes the envelope. So, interesting, edgy programs get edged out (or they go to HBO).

So, this antiquated mindset isn't just annoying and counterproductive, it causes the watering down of all entertainment. Whenever a big advertiser comes into a new program, the first thing they want you to do is tone down everything you do. It makes everything on television more boring, less challenging and ultimately more fake. Sponsors believe fake sells. If you're too honest or if you act like a real human being, as Phelps did the other day, then you have to be avoided at all costs. Otherwise Ozzie and Harriet will be offended. That would be true if they hadn't died thirty years ago.

Right behind the Prez are some government people trying their best to hold back a wall bulging at the seams with money and on the wall is written one small word...pot.

Thanx HU210, however according to the article:
" It's possible, according to a new study. However, the researchers say the link is currently a "hypothesis" that needs further testing."

A hypothesis is just a suggested explanation. Its just guesswork, and not at all conclusive. More prohibitionist bs. What about eating it, or vaporizing it. Was it campared. No It isn't a scientific study. Lots of people won't admit their drug of choice. Without true figures then, its impossible to do real scientific study. Is someone just wanting a story for their blog page to profit from increased hits. So they make up stories that might get attention and raise their revenue? If so, then shame on them.

I guess what I'm saying is that even though they do meth or coke, that in its self doesn't make them criminasls. I can't stand anything other than Cannabis, but everone is different, and demonizing these people who use other substances for whatever they're reasons makes us look as bad as the prohibitionists. Be real. I realize there are those people that are nutty, but they were nutty before they used there substance of choice. Lets be real and stop the bs. We don't like the bs about us you know.

As I was saying.That pot shoudl be allowed.Everybody should boycott Kellog's and they'll lose a ton of money!We are evreywhere.They should frree up the prison system with the real criminals that destroy lives,commit murder over greed and cash these drag trafficing oraganazations or DTOs.Property crime and hard drug use would decline if pot was legal.I don't see people robbing their loal 7-11'S for a joint.I don't see people selling their bodys for pot.As far as Coke and dope YES all the time.The stripping and porn industry is dripping with that shit.I almost forgot Meth and its effects on society and the ecosystem.Now they make that in super labs that pump out 500 lbs a cook!So with all this people are going to give PHELP SHIT!?Half of Kellogs people go home and get baked at night,I know you have to be very smart to work for Kellog's I'M SURE! lol.I think all the stoners shouild figure out a way to come up with a ton of money with NORML and all the other organizations advertise to us all to DONATE TO LEGAKLIZE.Every stoner in the USA will give to the cause if it was done correctly!!!!Put the DEA and all the countless agencys on the real problems!!!Terror,DTOs and all the other Thugs and other heathens out ruining lives with their poisen,the addicts who sell their souls.This so called DRUG WAR COULD END!!!The old folgeys are dying off!!SO LETS SEE IF OBAMA AND THE NEW DEA ADMIN GUY DOES.TO MICHIAL PHELPS,THIS IS GONNA MAKE THE BABES LIKE YOU EVEN MORE,AND YOU'LL MAKE EVEN MORE MONEY!!!SALUTES,Purlecalyxkid

Mr Phelps will survive this and in my opinion Marijuana does lead to harder things like GRAD SCHOOL!!!Why doesn't tour Goverment ADMIT THEY'RE WRONG!THEY NEVER DO!.MARIJUANA should be legalized as most of us with a brain knows.Prohibition didn't work and people are out there killing themselves drinking and driving!Lets not forget the countless poor people that get killed by drunk idiots on the road,People that don't even drink get KILLED!!!BIG PHARMA kills many people with they're evil demon drugs like Oxycontin,percocets,Adderale,Xanax and the list goes on and on,Like the commercials for all their Drugs their pushing on the public?!If the people of this great country band together to LEGALIZE then the police,DEA and all the other agenceys could band together to get rid of the Coke,Heroin Narco Terrorests saving all their record Heroin crops and using the money try to attack the USA!!!How is that happening with all the BRAVE Americans and their Allies.

Re the poster below calling themselves "somebody",
Who are you to choose whats good or bad in a free society?
You make me sick. You want your kids to think ely lillys pills DON"T kill thousands yearly?
You want your kids to think that Cannabis which is safer than water is bad? Not 1 person has died from overdosing on Cannabis. It can't be done.
You want people that use Cannabis to be in a urine smelling overcrowded prison cell with violent offenders? So they can learn from real criminals how to rob and kill?
You want peacefull Cannabis users to be beaten, stabbed, raped or killed in prison?
Your way of thinking as well as the policy makers are the reason the country is in so much trouble financialy. You'd prefer blind intolerant tradition over science.
You would prefer to break up children from their parents, terrorized by flash grenades and automatic rifles pushed into their faces in the privacy of their own homes. Do you have any idea what this does to children? You would rather the children be sent to foster homes. Over 700,000 families yearly. Thats close to 1 million families destroyed. Homes and cars confiscated. If a teen is the one "brought down", the teen can never get financial assistance for college in the future, nor will they be eligible for foodstamps, or medicaid. How they survive? Alot of times, they turn to real crime. You sit back and watch your soaps unaware of that which you endorse.
You make me sick. You should be in prison for supporting anti-constitutional policy. I pray for sensable policy change, but if it doesn't happen, I personally would welcome the deapest depression possible. I think the poster who calls themselves "somebody" doesn't deserve happiness if they allow such overstepping governmental abuse. As I said, if it continues, I just pray that they will pay.

Hello. Please don't bash me, but drugs just aren't accepted when they're tied to a major idol. Parents don't want their kids thinking it's okay to do drugs. Many people looked up to him, and not everyone smokes pot, so of course they'll be disappointed.

If he wants to smoke pot, there's no stopping him. But with any choice you make, you must be prepared for the consequences, good or bad.

I am disappointed in Michael. But not for the same reason as Kellogg's. Im disappointed in him for apologizing and not standing up for who he really is, a good ol american stoner. we need a young voice, and with his success it would show a pothead can do great things. Fuck Kellogg's.

Boycott everything that isn't cannabis or hemp! 2 faced cowards!

I think Phelps needs a board and have some fun and fuck the motherfuckers in skyscrappers.

This is utterly outrageous! If anything, Phelp's Olympic success should be given even greater emphasis, given that we are constantly fed all of this crap that weed turns you into a lazy and lathargic bum, or failing that, a depressed and paranoid weirdo.

The companies are dumbasses General Mills will pick him up instead of kellogs, rolex will want him if omega drops, adidas will pick him up if nike drops , and so on. We live in America and if one big company cant see the dollar signs another will. Phelps should be rollin spliffs with all his old kellogs contract cause now a new cereal company has to pay him millions to be on a box now. Maybe if the companies realized we buy the products not our goverment and the goverment is the only one who is disappointed because we all saw that a successful adult indulges in a healthier pass time.

Dude thats bull to the shit.
Cereal is a the number one stoner food!!
When your all billabonged out and your cravin some munch, you go and eat about 4 bowls of your favorite cereal. High Times should offer him a chance to be on the cover of High Times and take back his apology and start promoting the legalization.

So, I want to know why no one is talking about the real problem here. The real problem is that Micheal Phelps had an opportunity to say " Hey, I smoke pot and I'm the best swimmer in the world.". Instead we have the exact same behavior that we've grown to expect from those in the spotlight, that is, hide their tail between their legs, and run away leaving a trail of profuse apologies in their wake. I mean really, Micheal Phelps, you could have been the voice of the one out of two Americans that have smoked marijuana in their life's. Now, my only option is to be ashamed of Micheal, but not b/c he smoked pot, but, b/c now we have yet another public figure buying into the misconception that marijuana is wrong. One step forward, two steps back. In the words of David Alan Grier " Damn Damn Damn!".

Feb 7 2009, 9:21 am

Well obviously the people at Kelloggs are not weed smokers if they think he "disappointed allot of people" stupppsssss im sure they would not mind him take a single shot of rum...but then the other side of the puzzle is that if they did not do something like that to Phelps the non-weed mothers just might boycott them also....but i say weed is a blessing and it is about time people see how much of a blessing it is and stop the sense expensive war on weed

how dare michael phelps! he's a role model to children and he's photographed with bongs! mr. phelps it's time you act like the role model you are, throw away the bong, and put alcohol and guns in your hands, so you can become a role model and american hero again. honestly, this man represented america in china, doesnt he have the right to have a little smoke every now and then.

I went to the grocery store Thursday bought 2 boxes of Kelloggs Cereal. They haven't been opened so back they go for a refund.

Let's see how much integrity Kelloggs really has.
It might just be two boxes and I'm only one person. But I am concerned about my image. Won't be a hypocrite so FU Kelloggs.

Call the 800 number only, this will cost Kelloggs an ass load of money.

I once work for a small company and they had an 800 # and the owner told me the phone company charges for every single call that comes thru that line...MORE CALLS = MORE MONEY kelloggs has to spend!

You can even call multiple times with different names from pay phones!!!! HA HA HA!!!!


And call and complain about thier products to, this will also add to thier exspense.

I really didn't tell ya'll this........

i happen to know for a fact that as of about a year ago alot of the people that make kelloggs cereal are drug users. i know a few of them personally and i wouldnt be surprised if everyone in the company was on drugs. look at their cartoon characters and commercials, someones on drugs there, and if the people making the cereal are on drugs, and they people on the box are on drugs then whos left.??? its probably the black man, ever since obama got elected i have felt like they have been trying to keep the white man down.

From this moment forward, I purchase and eat no Kellogg’s products. That includes the brands Kellogg’s®, Keebler®, Pop-Tarts®, Eggo®, Cheez-It®, Club®, Nutri-Grain®, Rice Krispies®, All-Bran®, Special K®, Mini-Wheats®, Chips Deluxe®, Sandies®, Morningstar Farms®, Famous Amos®, and Murray®. (Cheez-Its?!? NO!!!)

Feb 6 2009, 7:05 pm

i personally think michael phelps did nothing wrong nor should be punished for it. the true reason phelps was let go by kellogs was that his contract was up at the end of february and with the economic down turn kellogs just used this event to make a clean break from phelps. even if it wasnt for this picture leaked kellogs would have most likely not have renewed there partnership with phelps.

There are several ways you can make your opinion known to the company.

You can call Kellogg’s main telephone number during east coast business hours, Monday through Friday, at: (269) 961-2000 or toll free at: 1 (800) 962-1413.

You can e-mail Kellogg’s consumer services department by visiting: http://www2.kelloggs.com/ContactUs.aspx.

You can contact Kellogg’s media relation department at: 269-961-3799 or via e-mail at media.hotline@kellogg.com.

You can e-mail Kellogg’s corporate responsibility department at: corporateresponsibility@kellogg.com.

You can e-mail Kellogg’s investor relations department at: investor.relations@kellogg.com.

Or finally, you can write the Kellogg Company a letter at:

One Kellogg Square
P.O. Box 3599
Battle Creek, MI 49016-3599

When contacting the company, please be polite and concise. Tell them:

“Hi, my name is _____________ and I’m a frequent consumer of Kellogg’s products.

Nearly one out of two Americans has used marijuana. This includes tens of thousands of prominent, highly successful Americans — including our current President. Michael Phelps should not be stigmatized nor condemned for private behavior that he, and millions of others, engage in on a daily basis.

The majority of the public, as well as those in the media, are standing behind Michael Phelps and so am I. I will no longer be purchasing Kellogg’s brand products until your company reverses its decision and reinstates Michael Phelps as your spokesperson.”

Thank you for standing up against the needless discrimination of cannabis consumers.
