My wife is Vietnamese, my best friend’s wife is Mexican (from Mexico), and both of them thought the Trader Joe’s decision to remove them was really dumb and have no problem with “Trader Jose”, etc. My friend’s wife and her family were posting memes making fun of it on their socials. I don’t think the American woke left knows what’s in the mind of every minority.

FYI, Trader Joe’s is keeping the packaging as-is. They are not removing Trader Jose’s.
Yes, but NYT's original article said they were removing them.
