Excerpts from Children’s Letters to Burger King CEO, John Chidsey

Dear Mr. Chidsey,
I love your food.  But if you don’t pay the farmworkers in Immokalee 1 cent more per pound, I will tell everyone not to eat your food.  These people are human beings!  All they ask for is 1 penny.
From,
Sarah

Dear Mr. Chidsey,
God thinks you should do the right thing.  I think you should help the Immokalee workers by paying them fairly.  They need money for homes and food. They are sad.  God thinks so too!

Dear Mr. Chidsey,
I am a 10 year old boy going on 11 and I think you are doing the wrong thing by thinking about using the farmworkers in your restaurant.  Please pay the farmworkers.  They are people just like you, but you have a better life.  How would you feel if you were them?
From,

Dear Mr. Chidsey,
Can you support the tomato pickers?  I love your crispy chicken sandwiches but now I will not eat your food anymore because of what you are doing.  I will also tell people not to go to you any more.
From,
Erin
