No Word From the Romans

Article XV
By Kanela

Roman Meal, Schwebel Baking Company, and their insurance company, Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. are unsure what to expect from The Consumer Crusade at this time. Actually, we don't know what we're doing yet either. But the word is spreading and the Crusaders are marching.

For your marching orders contact Sandra Seeley, author, writer, and crusader.

Boycott Roman Meal Schwebel Baking Company

Artictle XIV

By Kanela

When was the last time you heard the word "boycott"? I believe it's time to use it again against a company that chose to ignore my ultimatum for justice.

Schwebel Baking Company's insurance people asked me what I wanted for Mother Rose's unfortunate discovery in her Honey & Oat Bran bread.

I said, "$25,000."

They said, "Laughter."

I said, "You asked me what I wanted, not what I thought I would receive."

They said, "Louder laughter."

I said, "I will settle for $2,000. If I don't hear from you by March 24th, I will break my tentative vow of silence."

I believe they scoffed. (Scoffed is a funny word.)

Well all of you people out there in Readerland, I'm hoping you will join me on a Consumer Crusade. Let's show SBC (Schwebel Baking Company) that the keyboard is mightier than the Bread Company. This is for all the times you wanted compensation, but were refused and unable to do anything about it. Call or write Roman Meal, SBC, or Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. Tell them you are not going to buy another loaf of their bread, etc. until they start removing pieces of de-panner equipment from their loaves or until Mother Rose gets compensated. (Price has now gone up to $4,000. Delay is costly. Price will continue to double willy-nilly (funny word).

In addition, you can display the disgusting pictures of their product in the bread aisle of your local supermarket. If we do this nationwide, we may get some results.

Meanwhile, if you would like to start contributing to the Mother Rose Fund, feel free to fax your tax deductible donations to:

1-800-GOT-RAW-DEAL

or

1-800-GOT-BIG-ZERO


Keep in mind that bills work best in a fax machine. We accept Euros also.

You can also e-mail your money to money@sandraseeley.com and I will make sure it goes directly to Mother Rose.

This part is for real. Call:

Roman Meal at 1-800-922-0017

Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. at 1-800-437-1266

From this end of the monitor, I will continue the Consumer Crusade until we get compensated for the masses or until I can no longer number my articles in Roman Numerals. Go Consumers!

Roman Meal XIII

By Kanela

Roman Meal's Honey & Oat Bran bread is advertised as "All Natural". What is wrong with these people? I don't consider flexible tubing the size of Texas, that's baked into my bread, to be "natural". It may be an excellent source of fiber but it is not "natural whole grain goodness".

Along with 300 mg of sodium, various carbohydrates, sugar, protein, iron, and calcium, I believe rubber tubing should have been first in the list of ingredients in descending order of predominance. And Roman Meal and Schwebel's Bread was neglectful in choosing not to list it at all.

A very special 88 year old fan from Readerland, (my Mother), was the early morning victim of this gruesome discovery in her bread. I don't see how this 1 and ½ inch long, 1 inch diameter, filthy piece of de-panner equipment (see pictures) helps us get our recommended servings of whole grains. And I, for one, am not going to eat 6-11 servings of this piece of Junk every day.

In Roman Meal's defense, I want to say they were most generous in sending a check for $10.00 and a letter of apology. However, I was really upset that they sent a handful of coupons for more Roman Meal bread when I specifically told them I wanted coupons for a competitor's bread!

Then the parent company, Roman Meal, turned this whole fiasco over to their child, Schwebel Baking Company whose insurance Company offered us ten times more. They wanted us to accept $100.00 and take a vow of silence about their product. What next? A vow of poverty? (no need for that-I'm already at that level). A vow of chastity? (no comment)

If you believe Roman Meal was negligent in letting a piece of operating equipment (last maintained when?) bake into our bread, feel free to write them at:

If you feel Mother Rose should be compensated generously for her trauma, feel free to comment on her favorite oldest daughter's website or write the Author and Writer.

And if I were you, I would subject my Roman Meal/Schwebel breakfasts to an X-Ray machine before consuming. See Roman Meal Pictures and note that children 40 and younger should view these with a parent.
