Look up the ties between Tyson and the Clintons.

I think of Tyson and chicken, not pork. Evidently they have a marketing problem.

Tell me about it - virtually did me in after George W. Bush’s crash of 2008

Oh, it was something else....never his fault of leadership during his 2nd term

“Cheaper to get it from China, I suppose.”

Maybe because pigs float and can be towed behind the container ships.

Note their euphemism for ‘employees’: team members. Touching, huh?

The opposite. US shipping pork to China, for a lot of reasons. Cheapest American production is in China’s interest.

Have to figure in the cost of California pork rules on the size of enclosures, into the overall product costs.

That does stand out doesn't it? But like any team, some play, some ride the pine, and some get cut.

Perry may return to being an English-speaking community

California rules don’t apply in Iowa for pork exported to China.

The Chinese will buy it. Just Tyson agreed to do secretly, they are an evil company founded and run by scumbags.

New EPA rules taking effect regarding wastewater from meat processing.

You can bet that companies were told which states would have the rules applied stringently.

The WEF does seem to be at the center of a lot of the world’s problems.

Seem? They ARE! I found out that Tyson is going to be involved in the “meatless” meat industry and I won’t buy another product from them........I wonder if they feared their plants being blown up under suspicious circumstances? Too many food plants have been destroyed lately.

And Corydon Indiana..this month. Many workers will be let go.

Now that I did not hear about. Do you have a link to an article about that?

This is about the 9th Tyson plant closed since the start of 2023.

Indeed I can see the fine print on cans from other plants THAT WASN’T PORK.
