Chicken? Kale? Chicken? Kale?
I don't get it. Chicken and kale have nothing in common, especially comparing the fast food chicken from Chick-fil-A to any type of kale from anywhere. However, the giant fast food company is asking Bo Muller-Moore, the artist in Vermont who designed and prints the "Eat More Kale" t-shirts and bumper stickers to cease and desist, even asking him to hand over his website www.eatmorekale.com to the company.
I have both a t-shirt and bumper sticker, and I am firmly rooted on the side of kale and small (very small, a one-man ) business.
I don't know how to help Bo except to order more of his products. Chick-fil-A has given him amazing publicity, so I'll probably wait forever for the order to be filled, but that's ok! Yes, "EAT MORE KALE"!! (Addendum: A petition in favor of Bo Muller-Moore can be signed at change.org.)
Where kale is more than decoration on my plate, (because I now wear it and eat it in support of Bo Muller-Moore's "EAT MORE KALE"!)

I totally agree and can't believe the absurd waste of resources on the part of Chick-fil-A. Why don't they channel these efforts into something beneficial like saving a whale, a chunk of rainforest, anything? This may end up back-firing on them in the form of bad pr....and have the residual benefit of people eating less chicken!
Love your blog.

Also go to his website to contribute to the legal fund
I ordered a t-shirt, signed the petition, and posted on my blog...
We had the same problem here in Orlando FL. A small produce shop, Eat More Produce, got the same letter. I'm glad to say, they won the fight and they remain.
I got my 10 stickers and handed them out over the holidays! Thanks for mentioning this on your blog, it is nice to see people outside of VT pitching in!
