FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Contact: Chip Winston, Media Relations for Trader Chad’s

Monrovia, California — In light of recent controversies surrounding accusations of cultural appropriation, Trader Joe’s is proud to introduce our new “Trader Chad’s” product line.

“Honestly, this whole thing is a big misunderstanding,” said VP of Media Relations Chip Winston. “We named our international product lines, such as “Trader Giotto’s”, “Trader José’s” and “Trader Ming’s”, as a tribute to other cultures in the quirky, kitschy way you have all come to know and love.”

Trader Chad’s is a nod to the majority of our customers: White suburban folks who appreciate our idiosyncratic grocery shopping experience. We are excited to finally serve this underrepresented group with a product line they can call their own.

Coming soon to our Fearless Flyer:

· Trader Chad’s Very Very Vanilla Ice Cream: Enjoy the cool creamy taste of ice cream, without distracting exotic flavors! This ice cream is an exquisitely bland way to satisfy your sweet tooth…
