'Woke Capitalism' Takes a Bite out of Kellogg's: Company Breaks Apart After Years of Lousy Performance

Kellogg’s, the iconic cereal company of the Baby Boomer generation, is no longer Grrreat! In fact, the home of Tony the Tiger is now downright Terrrible! A champion of “woke capital,” the Kellogg Corporation has announced it is breaking into three separate companies after years of disappointing sales performance.
As reported by Reuters, the snack and cereal giant announced on Tuesday it would split into three independent, publicly-traded companies, the names of which be determined later, Kellogg said spun the ever-loving hell out of. The break-up has been approved by its board of directors.
“Kellogg has been on a successful journey of transformation to enhance performance and increase long-term shareholder value,” said Steve Cahillane, the company’s chief executive and board chairman.
“Value”? Really? Check out this report from Breitbart in 2017:
Every time an American family picks up a box of Kellogg’s cereal at the grocery store, it is contributing to the wealthy radical leftwing foundation that agitates for open borders, supports George Soros’s Open Society Insitute, and pushes a host of leftwing causes.
The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is the largest shareholder of the Kellogg Company. According to its 2016 tax filing, the Kellogg Foundation’s trust owns approximately $5.2 billion of stock in the company, about 20 percent of the company’s equity.
The other large holders are mostly passive investors such as mutual funds and their ownership is a fraction of [that of] the foundation. That means that the foundation effectively controls the famous cereal company.
