...corporation in this regard. Not only has Wendy’s refused to join the Fair Food Campaign, they have now decided not to buy any tomatoes from Florida. Instead, they are choosing to buy their tomatoes from Mexico. Please contact Wendy’s, both the local restaurants and at the corporate level, letting them know you are boycotting.
