I’ve gotten replies from a few companies, but usually about specific products. Kroger confirmed that their store brand sugar is -not- vegan, as did Meijers. I messaged Kellog a long time ago saying they should make more vegan pop-tarts, and they said it was a good idea. Then never made more vegan poptarts XD Pioneer Sugar confirmed that their sugar is vegan.
But there are definitely a lot more who have never responded, or sent form letters.

I get responses but mainly the ones I’ve gotten just try to make you happy, when in reality it doesn’t seem like anything is being done.

I get responses from companies probably half of the time. Don’t give up!

Usually when you email council members they will reply with something short and sweet so that they can let you know they got it but with companies it is hard because there has to be a lot of emails on the same topic for them to acknowledge it. Your emails are getting read, but the companies just aren’t as nice about the replies.

I’ve gotten countless letters from people in Congress, but the generic ones. From companies….maybe one from Dunkin’ Donuts because i wanted them to make vegan donuts.

I once got a reply from Atlanta’s city council member.
I just made the subject box as “Hey, what’s going on” then in the message I continued by saying,”with this bull-hook business”
I think it helps when you make your subject a friendly maybe even a little misleading but just enough to get them to open it. Like if it’s to the Mars people then maybe open with: i know you must be tired of getting all these masses from PETA
Then go on you say what you have to and close with. All PETA is asking is for you to stop your animal testing, just do that and you’ll be left alone, the campaign will be stopped, and you’ll even get your customers back.
Something like that.

Just like @phoebeanne123, I generally get replies that they send to everyone. Occasionally though I do get a personal response, I think it just depends on the company and how many emails they get.

I only get form letters.

Whenever I email a company about some sort of animal abuse issue or anything like that, I have never once gotten a reply. And I was wondering if the company’s even look at my emails, I have done this countless times and it just kind of annoys me. I know it shouldn’t but I put alot of time into writing a very detailed and polite message. Have anyone on here ever gotten a reply message? I was kind of just recently thinking about this.
