BesTaste Dimsum

BesTaste Dimsum is a product manufactured by Ramar Foods, the company that has pirated food brands from the Philippines, including the widely known Magnolia Ice Cream.

We urge Filipino Americans and Fil-Canadians to BOYCOTT all products manufactured by the OMGpeke company Ramar Foods.

Best Taste products to boycott:
– Best Taste Chicken with Shrimp Shumai 10oz
– Bestaste Pork with Shrimp Shumai 10oz
– Bestaste Chicken Asado Siopao 20oz
– Bestaste Hamonado Siopao 20oz
– BestTaste Pork Asado Siopao 20oz
– BestTaste Siopao Bola Bola 4pcs 20oz
– BestTaste Spicy Pork Asado Siopao 20oz

Exercise your power as a consumer.

There are so many ethical choices you can make.

For example, GOLDILOCKS is now making siopao. This is a Philippine company with production facilities in the Philippines and in North America. Unlike Ramar Foods, Goldilocks is a Philippine company. Unlike Ramar Foods, Goldilocks never stole a longstanding iconic brand from the Philippines.

Do NOT buy Ramar’s BesTaste Dimsum. Do NOT buy Ramar’s Siopao. Do NOT buy Ramar’s Shumai.

Spend your money on the products of companies that follow ethical business practices.

Is Magnolia Ice Cream in the USA Owned by Magnolia Philippines?

No, it is not.

Magnolia Ice Cream USA is owned by Ramar Foods, the Northern California company that pirated the Magnolia ice-cream brand's logo from the Philippines.

History:

The Philippine company San Miguel created and developed the Magnolia ice-cream brand in the 1920s.

In the early 1970s, a completely unaffiliated family in California started marking their own ice-cream with the Magnolia mark in order to hoodwink Filipino Americans into thinking they were somehow related or the same.
