Thread: Bisquick Drops Spanish

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but the following comment from our local newspaper shows why I am so adamantly opposed to Spanish speakers being catered to. This is what we are getting for it:

Growing ethnic population

People, over the last 10 to 15 years Waukegan is the town with the most Hispanic people in Lake County. This town has grown so much because of Hispanics. Lets all face it, Spanish is the language of Waukegan, and soon will be all the United States. Hispanics in five to 10 years from now will become the biggest population in the States. This is called reality.

SOSADFORUS the link is for PDF file; I just tried it and it worked. Do you have an application to open pdf?

As for the spanish on the package; your daughter was so nice to check! I won't hold my breath for english only packaging out here unless we get some english only laws passed.

Oh thanks "Cvangel" .... we will just have to see when new orders are filled if the spanish is gone.

The news makes me hungry.

Some good news for a change!

EVERY bit of good news HELPS!

I bought a box two weeks ago. I haven't opened it yet. The writing on the box is in English, however, in small letters on the front of the box it says "instrucciones en espanol" and in tiny letters underneath that, it says "al reverso". Does that mean the Spanish instructions are inside the box ?

Actually, it's called a fantasy.

"Nicie" the "al reverso" is the receipe on the back of the box...English on the left spanish on the right for pancakes only...all the other receipes are in english only.

So far doesn't look like they took the spanish off, unless it is to soon to tell.

Will rush right out and buy a case of biscut mix and Bisquick stock! Where do I sign, where do I sign?
