What brand was he checking? You know the Chinese bought Smithfiled which is produces about 25% of the pork products. I still say that your targeting of Walmart is the wtrong target, bcause they are not the ones packaging the product. If you want to go after the culprit, then go after the actual producer.

To do the study accurately, you need to buy the same product at different supermarkets.

Walmart can not double-check these producers. They do not have the time nor the resources tyo checl the weights of products.

I mean you are already complaining about the price ssue baeed upon the weight. If you want to correct the problem, then ityhe problem needs to be identified by the thre original source, not where the product is bought when they clearly are not packaging the products tyou are complaining about.

You also need to know how the [rpduct is designed to be weighed, and what is included or excluded when computing the weight.

That is the only fair way. If you think Walmart is cheating you, then refuse to shop there. That is your right.

But I am geting tired of this nation becoming a litigious nation, it is far more destructive, than it is constructive. It has als been a major cause of the rise price of things. Perhaps 10% is constructive, esecially when it comes to health issue concerens.

It doesn’t have to end up in court. With Kentucky Legend, Walmart brought the problem up to them, they recalled the product, and said it wouldn’t happen again. That’s what should happen. Having Walmart exert the pressure on Smithfield makes more sense than having individual customers do it. If enough customers complain to their local Walmart, they will assert pressure on Smithfield and I’ll bet things change.
