I ate roasted crickets in survival school. Kinda greasy. Otherwise bland.

Listen you. You better stop making sense and get with the program.

[BereanBrain]

These same corporations are what’s wrong with our food supply.

They are doubling down on stupid.

I guess what’s in it for them is tighter controls, higher prices. Just like Obamacare.

[Mark17]

That’s an impressive number of gullible CEO’s.

Are they gullible, or just bought off, and paid to lie.

[tumblindice]

Why don’t they just seed the clouds with Brawndo.
Brawndo’s electrolytes have got what plants crave.

[aimhigh]

If these companies believed this crap, they would be buying up potential farmland in Canada.

From a corporation point of view, the letter serves two purposes.

#1) Insulation from a very political IRS. Remember, Coca Cola just got hit for $30,000,000,000 in back taxes. Volkswagen and their recent non-union plants in America just got their diesel nightmare.

#2) The government grant handouts and federal cost sharing money pot is going to be ripe for "Sustainable Practices" seed money for food producers to adopt newer practices IAW climate change rules mandated by government, so it's better to be out ahead and sitting on such panels making the rules.

[metmom]

Yes.

[Chaguito]

Major bucks were made by DuPont on the ozone hole scare. Crony capitalists make money on all of these hoaxes.

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

Clearly we need to double our CO2 emissions.

3# Large corporations can absorb the cost of regulations and drive out smaller competitors.
4# Multinationals can out compete US based corporations by avoiding regulations by producing abroad and importing.

"The letter was signed by the chief executive officers from Unilever, Mars, Kellogg, General Mills, Nestle, New Belgium Brewing, Ben & Jerry’s, Clif Bar, Stonyfield Farm, and Dannon."

Some of us won't starve for lack of junk food.

[PLMerite]

Tryin’ to stay on the correct side of the Gravy Train.

[The Iceman Cometh]

properly financed

That's all you need to read right there.

It's all about the money flowing.

[America_Right]

I would be willing to bet this is better for you than processed white flour. However, I don’t think I could bring myself to eat it if I knew what it was...

[bluejean]

Sumb*tch. So Clif Bar is a globullist warming lefty prototype of F(the)utureFud - the kind of fare Mooch and the Minions will have us all eating while they have 5 course meals the rest of their demonic lives. And they want to jack the price up due to “climate change”? I’m done. I won’t buy them ever again.

Their not uninformed; they just see a buck to be made here in higher food prices.

[Rodamala]

I laugh at the price of yogurt. Well, laugh that people actually pay that much for it. It is ridiculously easy to make at home.
