Twitter Still on Fire with Anti-Panera Bread Controversy

OMG! 

Got on Twitter Sunday afternoon after being away for a day and 19 of 50 of the first tweets I see are on the Panera Bread controversy.

Here are some of the tweets:

Ashley Knapton: Anyone else wish they could see the look on the @panerabread's PR's face when they get to work on Monday? #pluckezchicken

Andrew Goodrich: @panerabread 6 am on a Sunday morning and I'm checking withdrawals on fat cattle. Man I feel lazy. #pluckezchicken

Shannon: #PluckEZChicken At the farmers market this morning and those lazy farmers were there and set up by 8am. The nerve!

Dianne Bettin: Panera Bread - don't use fear to sell food! #pluckezchicken

Here is a response from Panera Bread as posted by AgWired:

@VLynnVLV Sorry if you were offended by our EZ Chicken posts, Valerie. We truly appreciate entire farming community & all their hard work.

@MrsZookeeper We never intended to insult anyone with our EZ Chicken posts, especially farmers. We truly appreciate all their hard work.
