General Mills Inc has paused advertising on Twitter, a company spokesperson said on Thursday, days after the social media platform was acquired by billionaire Elon Musk for $44 billion.
"We will continue to monitor this new direction and evaluate our marketing spend," the spokesperson added.

Their crap is both GMO and contains “natural flavorings”. Natural flavorings are derived from aborted human fetal kidney cells.
Seriously.
That’s why Cheerios cannot be sold outside of the US.
General Mills isn’t just Cereal, here are other products you are probably buying.
Annie’s, Betty Crocker, Nature Valley, Yoplait, Pillsbury, Haagen-Dazs, and Blue Buffalo.
Well Elon is already planning to move away from an advertiser-based model, so GM can hit the bricks.
Probably the corporations’ own woke employees.
it’s their loss....dumb
general motors is a competitor....so i can see that
Bought another box of cheerios last week.
Until they unwake themselves, it was my last box.
This is why I only buy store brand cereal.
I am ok with putting general mills on the do not buy list. Kelloggs is already on it. No name brand it is.
Hope everyone pauses buying their sugar-coated shit.
Yep.
Nobody can afford name brand now anyway thanks to libtards
*************
Great post! Runaway inflation is forcing people to purchase affordable store brands.
Commie corporations will get their comeuppance someday.
Thanks for that list, I will definitely be boycotting some of these products.
We quit buying General Mills a long time ago.

More Woke Companies To Avoid: List #5

Excerpt:
“#44: General Mills
General Mills SYM:GIS Food: Misc and Diversified Rev: $17,627 MC: $37,660
In order to attain a perfect score on the HRCF’s Workplace Equality for LGBTQ rating, a company must disregard the rights of employees that don’t embrace that lifestyle and culture. General Mills has received that perfect score fifteen times now. General Mills – the parent company of Cheerios, Pillsbury, Yoplait, and Nature Valley – engages in indoctrination-style employee training, puts on a Pride Ride Car Parade at their facilities each June, and sponsors a “National Coming Out Day.” Additionally, General Mills eagerly supported Black Lives Matter, and they have overwhelmingly supported Democrat political candidates in recent years.
Considering that Nabisco is also on our list at #20, and is equally woke as General Mills, our alternatives for readily available prepared foods are limited. But there are smaller, regional and local brands that are often available. Those products may be slightly more expensive, but chances are they’re healthier for you and are produced by an organization that’s far more respectful of your principles.”

“ aldi cereals...close enough”
They are so close to Cheerios that I wonder if Aldi’s are made by General Mills. I just compared their ingredient lists to find them almost identical except that Cheerios has some added sugar while Aldi has none. I prefer no added auger in. cereal anyway.
It's been happening here for a while. Hopefully it's not too late to turn back the tide. Things like this force people and companies to choose a side, censorship or free speech.
Any connection to General Milley?
