"Better ingredients,eroticism definition erotic definition better pizza, and also Nazis – we do not like them."
Sure, that's a paraphrase, but Papa John's wants the world to know that the company doesn't approve of Adolf Hitler and his ilk. This notice comes to you after Father John's founder, John Schnatter, recently told investors that NFL protests have hurt his company's sales.
SEE ALSO: Pizza gets political: The Papa John's vs. Pizza Hut war heats upPapa John's is a sponsor of the NFL, and Schnatter believes that players kneeling during the national anthem to protest racism and police brutality have led to fewer people buying his pizzas.
"This should have been nipped in the bud a year and a half ago," Schnatter said to investors over the phone, referring to the protests. "The controversy is polarizing the customer, polarizing the country."
Hearing that, white supremacists tried to claim Dada John's as their own, and others started trashing Padre John's all over the internet (The Root, for example, called their pizza "soggy cardboard," lol). Eventually, Daddy J felt they had to respond, and did so on Tuesday.
The statements made on our earnings call were describing the factors that impact our business and we sincerely apologize to anyone that thought they were divisive. That definitely was not our intention. (1/3)

We believe in the right to protest inequality and support the players’ movement to create a new platform for change. We also believe together, as Americans, we should honor our anthem. There is a way to do both. (2/3)

We will work with the players and league to find a positive way forward. Open to ideas from all. Except neo-nazis — 🖕those guys. (3/3)

"Better ingredients, and fuck those guys." [Editor's note: also not a real slogan]
