Who is torching our food supply?
American Thinker ^ | 5 May, 2022 | M.B. Mathews

Once is an accident. Twice, a coincidence. Three times is a pattern. But four times is an act of war. Who has declared war on us by setting fire and explosions to America's food processing plants? In the last four months, 16 major fires have erupted at food industry facilities and plants. Sixteen. This does not seem to be a conspiracy theory. It seems to be a conspiracy.

In a General Mills plant in Iowa this month, two major incidents within 48 hours took place; one was a roof fire, the other at a General Mills facility in Covington, Georgia where a small plane crashed into the plant.

Azure Standard, less than a week ago, burned to the ground in a massive fire. CEO David Stelzer is admitting that all Azure Market liquid products will be out of stock for the foreseeable future as a result. Around the same time, an important food processing plant in Salinas, California experienced a four-alarm fire. Taylor Farms California Foodservice production facility burned almost to the ground.

In March in Arizona, 50,000 pounds of food were lost to a fire at the Maricopa Food Pantry.

Also in March the Rio Fresh onion packing facility in San Juan, Texas experienced a significant structure fire. In April, New Hampshire's East Conway Beef and Pork slaughterhouse had a major fire.

Here are more fire reports just since January:

Penobscot McCrum potato processing plant in Belfast, Maine.

Hot Pockets at a Nestle plant in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

Walmart fulfillment center, Plainfield, Indiana.

Shearer’s Foods potato chip plant in northeast Oregon.

Probably many more than 35k food processing facilities now. And maybe a million sites raising livestock, out of two million farms. Those numbers do not include Canada.

2022 - 41 so far in 4 month 2021 - 16 in 12 months

. . . .

That said, if true, 41 is obviously than 2021. But is 41 more than 2019? All stats have to be taken in context.


Don't let your bias blind you!

That was 41 instances this year in just 4 months.

If the pattern was to hold, that would be 160 instances for the this year compared to 16 for 2021.

Again, source for this 41 number?

And yes 160 would be a lot, time will tell, but still no where near needed to impact food supply. Then you have to prove that these were somehow conspiratorial vs just an anomoly. I have yet to see any claim that the fires thus far are suspicious yet alone criminal.

So yeah we got a long long long way to go to put put on the tin foil hat. But some people just love wearing them I guess.
