After the head of Barilla made a homophobic statement a few weeks back, "apologies were made and no boycott of Barilla was ever initiated anywhere [except] at the Amagansett IGA, owned by the Cirillo family. Everything has been pulled out of the shelves, the dried pastas, the frozen entrees, the sauces and few other items. The supermarket staff has acknowledged that the reason was the decision of Mrs. Cirillo to boycott the products. For many of the shoppers it is a big loss...nobody seems to take the interests and desires of the Hamptons' year-round consumers too seriously." [Curbedwire]
