Alpenrose Dairy products
boycott update
Carl Cadonau, Jr., stated in a recent phone interview that
Alpenrose Dairy is still non-supportive of the "homosexual
lifestyle" either emotionally or financially
BY
C L IN T O N
DE
LONGPRE
n the spring of 1986, Food Front
Cooperative Grocery placed in
advertisement in Just Out picturing an
Alpenrose product along with other “specials”
in the ad. Alpenrose received some phone
calls soon after the ad appeared, alerting them
that their products were being advertised in a
lesbian and gay publication. Christ Schwardt,
a representative of Alpenrose, visited Food
Front, informing the management that
Alpenrose was uncomfortable with Food
Front advertising Alpenrose products in Just
Out because of its connections to the lesbian
and gay community. Schwardt also asked
Food Front to refrain in the future from
placing ads which contained Alpenrose
products in Just Out.
After discussing the situation thoroughly
amongst the staff. Food Front reached the
decision to take a stand against the
discrimination and blatant homophobia of
Alpenrose. Acknowledging Alpenrose's
discomfort with the advertising of its products
in a publication serving the lesbian and gay
community. Food Front felt Alpenrose would
also be uncomfortable with the consumption
of its products by lesbians and gays.
Therefore, on May 1, 1986. Food Front
terminated business with Alpenrose Dairy.
Carl Cadonau. Jr.. Advertising Director of
Alpenrose Dairy was recently contacted
concerning the boycott of Alpenrose products
I
that was organized and has continued since
Food Front dropped Alpenrose as its dairy
products supplier. Cadonau was asked
whether Alpenrose Dairy had as yet made a
clear and meaningful apology to the lesbian
and gay community for Alpenrose's
homophobia and non-support of lesbians and
gays.
According to Cadonau, Alpenrose's
position on the matter has not changed. He
stated in a recent phone interview that
Alpenrose Dairy is still non-supportive of the
homosexual lifestyle either emotionally or
financially.
A brief update of the events leading to and
surrounding the Alpenrose boycott appeared
in the 1989 Portland Lesbian and Gay Pride
Day publication along with a four-step plan to
expand the boycott and make it more
effective. The plan is as follows:
1. Boycott all Alpenrose-manufactured
products. These include all Albertson's dairy
products, all Western Family dairy products,
and all Baskin Robbins ice creams in the
states of Oregon. Washington, Idaho, and
Montana.
2. Tell your friends and family in these
states to boycott all Alpenrose-manufactured
products, and to write to Alpenrose Dairy and
the related companies informing them of the
boycott of these products.
3. You write to Alpenrose Dairy, Western
Famdy Foods. Inc.. Albertson's Food Centers,
and Baskin Robbins, explaining why you are
boycotting these products.
4. Write to stores carrying these products,
explaining why you are boycotting these
products.
Additionally, send copies of your letters to
Just Out. This will allow a means of
ascertaining how the boycott is progressing.
For information on other ways you can help,
