You will eat bugs and you WILL be happy!

And just a reminder of this story from a couple months ago.

Rural town braces for Tyson plant closure as manufacturing booms elsewhere

"The meat giant is closing six chicken processing sites in Missouri, Indiana, Arkansas and Virginia, laying off more than 4,600 workers who have long relied on its outsize presence as a local employer."

They’re quickly moving into the next phase to feed the world.

So now anytime I see Tyson, I have to wonder if it has bugs? Thanks for the info.

I’ll have a little cricket mixed in with my chicken - just for flavor.

insect-ingredient solutions

They pretend that there is a problem that needs a solution. But there isn't. Not in America. We have plenty of food, and we don't need to eat bugs.

If were a Tyson's customer I'd be scratching them off my list. You never really know what ingredients are in that "meat".

This appears to have lizards.

If the Left retains control of the federal government after the 2024 elections, the movement to shove bugs down our collective throats will grow legs and take flight (at some point, to become government mandates).

Going out on a limb...as long as we are burning corn as ethanol fuel, the cost of chicken feed will remain painfully inflated.

The Tyson brand is surely at risk when it is associated with eating insects.

I’ve been reading ingredients for years. It’s a bit of a science, akin to reading a foreign language.

I assure all who are reading this that, like wood fibers added to food, they will invent a new term to describe insect protein to mask its addition once it is granted GRAS status (assuredly forthcoming) and that nearly all who might buy such products including said ingredient will be oblivious to its inclusion unless they 1. Read the ingredients, 2. Understand the nature of said ingredient.

Or, if you truly care about your health, simply abandon the industrial foods complex and invest in your own health rather than enriching corporations at your physical expense.

Tyson is one brand I won’t have to quit. Did that many years ago. Chinese owned, problems several times with contaminated food.
I use John Soule as much as possible.
