Bob Unanue: “We are on the precipice of a global food crisis. God created humanity. Humanity has created every way to destroy itself — from nuclear to biological to chemical. But now we’ve waged a war — we’ve weaponized food. In the Ukraine — between the Ukraine and Russia — they represent 50% of the world’s production of fertilizer, 30% of wheat, 20% of corn, 2.5 million acres of sunflowers, other food and minerals . . .
“We’re going to have to tighten our belt and consume less. We’ve gone from oil independence to oil dependence. We’ve given up that position — to have our oil at cost . . . When we bring in stuff from — let’s say, Thailand — coconut water. We’re paying 10 times the freight we usually pay…
“The biggest component in food and anything is transportation. The transportation has skyrocketed because we’ve given up our independence. When you have an unbalance in the food production — in 2008, the price of grains tripled. Why? Because we were planting corn for ethanol instead of rice and grains and other things . . . When you have an imbalance in the world production — 50% of fertilizer — the farmers are paying double for fertilizer. They’re planting less. Their yields are gonna be less. Costs are gonna go up . . .

I’m stocking up on Twinkies. The only food with a half-life.
I remember Goya Foods being in the news about 2 years ago.
The then president of Goya Foods said something that seemed supportive of MAGA values. I cannot recall what he said.
His family was very upset about it. He refused to ‘apologize’.
Twitter declared a Boycott on all Goya canned foods.
In response, conservatives declared a BUY-cott for that same brand of canned foods. Soon Goya cans were ‘flying’ off the store shelves.
Good Times!
He’s also right on the money
They have been our brand since.
“He can live off of stored calories for quite some time...”
No doubt his wherewithal too. A guy to admire.
Unless they’ve recently gone woke, Goya has stoutly conservative leadership.
He was a big Trump supporter...
I think CEOs should just give money to who they support...otherwise you make half the people mad
Best Christmas movie ever...
Yes, they fired him for being conservative.
Don't think they fired him - this is the same guy.
It ain’t Christmas until Hans Gruber falls from the Nakatomi Tower!!!
(And as if I needed an excuse to make another batch...)
It / they are very tasty. Economical too.
Healthy & yummy.
Yup. When I look up on the shelf and see their product I have pleasant memories.
Ping
He’s a great CEO!
Drill baby, drill. Get rid of Jo and the Ho.
