I hadn't heard anything about this story before listening and I found your conversation really interesting. I'm very sorry your engagement has this hanging over it now.

Whenever these types of stories come out and I find myself a patron of a company riddled with abuse and racism, it makes me sick to my stomach. I'm sorry that this is looming over a happy memory. Bravo for shining a light!

Despite the troubling subject matter, I loved how this story unfolded( describing the positive experience y’all had before the other shoe dropped). Really love these episodes with you two just chatting about anything.

As someone who works in the industry of premium ‘exotic’ organic natural foods I found this fascinating and sad and unfortunately believable

Agreed and is what makes us Patrons!

I love the way @joyofnapping tied the story up on an upbeat proactive way, taking matters or the meal, into her own hands instead of wallowing in regret. I admire that!
