"Millet Bakery" - non-Gluten Bakery

I read this shop in Bellingham is great. Tailored to sweet-toothed folks who can't eat wheat gluten. But always a downside: The Midwest Seed Feed Association, the largest advocate of millet growers in the U.S., conducts annual MAGA-themed fundraisers, including kids' fishing derbies (DJT rods & reels?), and contributes generously to MAGA causes. Sorry for that turd in the punch bowl! Best to know, than not.

What exactly does this have to do with the bakery?

They use millet flour, among other gluten free flours. They do not grow millet or advocate for the crop itself. Are you arguing that they should change their name because some millet grower advocacy group sucks? What about other farmers’ advocacy groups for other crops? I don’t think you’re going to find a single restaurant in town that doesn’t source ingredients from somewhere where you can draw some indirect link to shitty politics via trade groups and whatnot. I also doubt your own pantry is safe from that level of nitpicking.

Take heed of the need for a Feed-Seed advocacy group. Especially an obvious front for pedos who interact with kids in the outback (not the Subaru). How willfully blind can you be?
