Does anybody else find this odd or right?

It turns out companies have no values of there own. Take this recent article about Trader Joes. They said they would do one thing until they found out there customers do not care. How about they have an idea on there own what they want and stick with there ideals. Is it all about profits?

I don't know if I'd call those names racist, but some of them are definitely stereotyped.

I love the Japanese one adding the "san" at the end is just the equipment of saying "mister" before the brand name. And "soyaki" had me in giggles because it was so punny.

But yeah I'm not surprised that trader Joe's is not changing the names.
