3. I stopped buying their products when I heard but damn......
... I loved their Baby Carrot Juice and their Vanilla Chai. I am going to email them and give them a talking to for ruining one of my favorite addictions!

I sure hope the good folks who make Turkey Hill Green Tea Ice Tea are Democrats or I'll be going through cases of Grey Goose and Fiji water.

4. Big Train chai is the best anyway
Don't know about Big Train's political leanings but their spiced chai is the best on the market, and I've tried them all.

5. I just stopped drinking one of their products. I will never buy anything of their's again.
I used to spend $15 a week on their drinks.
