>>Wait, does this mean we spent 2.5 million dollars on 2 lb of ham? It couldn’t be 2 lb containers of ham, half a million of them or something, could it?<<
I was wondering that too — is this for multiples of these items? Or would that be noted on the pages drudge linked to?
Nothing there. Although that in itself should be cause for some alarm.
Interestingly, I ran the names of the executives for the first ham company through opensecrets.org and came up empty.
Then I ran the Hormel people through and aside from a lot of Norm Coleman donations, I really didn't see much.
It's not unlikely that I'm missing something though, with this crew behind the wheel.
