David Farkas of Chain Leader in his blog had an interesting take on the loyalty of the gay community when it comes to certain brands. 

What do Cracker Barrel, Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts have in common with Wal-Mart, Levi’s and American Airlines?

Answer: Gay people either like or despise these companies. A recent Prime Access/PlanetOut.com survey shows that gays, lesbian and transgendered consumers put Starbucks at the top of their list of “gay-friendly” businesses while Cracker Barrel and Dunkin Donuts (along with Wal-Mart) are at the very bottom. 

Interesting to find out that the gay community finds Dunkin Donuts at the bottom of being “gay-friendly”. Not sure what it is about the Canton based company that makes them not “gay-friendly” and Starbucks a place were gay and lesbians can hang out.

By the way, I am not gay…not that there is anything wrong with that!!!!
