It seems problematic to me, tho maybe not to them, that they had a whole bunch of Nazis migrate to Argentina. Sure, that was a long time ago, but you asked if they ever had a problem with it.

What with all the leaded water and wine, it was likely even more stupid.

Look, when Food Lion came to place I lived in the 80s, I didn’t have the ability to just google why that weird looking lion was in the name. But you do. They acquired an American chain called Food Town and later wanted to expand into an area that already had Food Towns. They thought to use the lion to distinguish themselves from the other stores and one of the original founders realized it wouldn’t be too expensive to just change the Town to Lion, so they did.
