As expected, nothing came of this. Don't be pathetic. Stop buying from red states and wacko Trump supporters everyday.

Stop buying from red states

No wheat? Even imported Italian pasta is made from American Durum wheat. (Yes Italian pasta companies import US wheat, make pasta from it and then sell it as Italian.)

Companies look at quarter to quarter metrics. NO company of any size looks at day-to-day metrics.

Retail absolutely looks at daily sales year vs year, referenced to both Julian Dates and Gregorian Dates. They use the data to set staffing levels and to decide when to have sales between holidays.
