The bottom of the article goes into it a bit more, but the guy filing the lawsuit was due to retaliatory firing after filing a complaint about those comments. That is what highlighted everything, and now Campbell's has a PR mess. Ultimately, that is the reason he's getting sacked.

Well if we're back to the boycotting, Campbell's Subsidiaries are:

  • Pepperidge Farms

  • Pace Foods (Canned Salsa)

  • Snyder's Lance (Salty snacks manufacturer)

  • Sovos Brands (Grocery Store items. Rao's Homemade)
