Code Pink Lies: Chapter 2 in the Bamba Wars

Code Pink activists have proudly proclaimed that their "How dare Americans enjoy peanutty goodness"  petition to Trader Joes has nearly 20,000 signatures. 

What they don't mention is that the petition is rigged, so that one person can sign multiple times.  There is no email verification and no screening.   Its so janky, even a bot could do it.

That goes a long way explaining some of the *unusual* names on the petition.

In the meantime, shoppers report their stores have sold out of Israeli products across the county.  Across social media, they are proudly photographing the contents of their shopping carts and their receipts.

Some sadly could only photograph the empty shelves, after the products sold out. 

No doubt Jodie Evans and Medea Benjamin are anxiously sipping their low fat soy lattes , plotting on how to turn this into a "win".

Let us know, girls.

Israeli Bamba comes to Trader Joe's

Why are so many Americans proudly posing on social media holding bags of the Israel peanut snack, Bamba?

This unabashed public display of affection is thanks to Trader Joe's, with is now carrying the same Bamba you grew up loving:

Made for us in Israel, where Bamba is far and away the best-selling snack in the country, Trader Joe’s Bamba Peanut Snacks contain just four, simple ingredients: corn grits, peanut paste, palm oil, and salt. First, the corn grits are “popped” under high pressure, turning them into long rope-like lines of white, puffed, unflavored “Bamba.” Next, the Bamba is cut into peanut-sized nuggets and air-baked for 20 seconds in a drying chamber, which gives it an even crispier texture.

Bamba is just one of many fine Israeli products carried by Trader Joe's.
