Julie Jenkins Fancelli is the daughter of Publix founder George W. Jenkins and the “heiress” has made headlines recently for her $300,000 contribution to a rally held by former President Donald Trump that preceded the Jan. 6 riot on the U.S. Capitol.
Despite the attempt to distance, a call for a boycott of the popular grocery store is permeating Twitter as we speak:
It was my favorite grocery store and the best job I’ve ever had. Even got employee of the month once. But it’s time to #BOYCOTTPUBLIX
I’ve been a customer since 1973, but I have no choice but to #BOYCOTTPUBLIX
publix!? not you too this feels like i just found out that my parents arent my real parents and that i was kidnapped in the hospital #BOYCOTTPUBLIX
However, at least one person had a different take:
nooo don’t #BOYCOTTPUBLIX their fried chicken is so good
