YouGov did a survey to find out which product and company brands have bipartisan support. They were looking at point differences between brands selected by conservatives and liberals. They said of 2,200 brands considered, 29% were considered equally by liberals and conservatives. The top ones preferred by liberals over conservatives were Impossible Foods, Beyond Meat, and Silk. There was a 6.5% to 11.2% difference. So there is not as much division as some may think. Of their most bipartisan brands, KFC was number two. In the Casual Dining Sector, Buffalo Wild Wings was tops. In the food area, it was Progresso. As far as agreement, “I prefer fresh or shelf-stable food over frozen foods” was number six. So at family meals, maybe different political parts of your family can come together here.
