Good. Now if only ALL of them would do so!

I’ve been leery of Tyson for the past few years. I bought a whole Tyson chicken with the intention of making chicken stew. To wrangle the frosty bird into my crockpot, I had to cut it up. It wasn’t long before my cuticles were stinging like I’d dipped my hands into bleach, though I noticed no peculiar odor.

I discarded the mess and returned a second carcass unopened to the store where I’d bought them. The manager gave no argument over refunding the full costs of both except to protest that it came from the processor that way. (This was shortly after the newsmagazine expose` of Food Lion grocery stores repackaging and selling meat of questionable freshness after washing the stuff in bleach/other chemicals.)

“China has become the world’s leading supplier of many food flavorings, vitamins and preservatives...”

“available in large quantities only from China.”

“...an increase of 150 percent from just two years earlier, according to Chinese industry estimates. It is now the predominant maker of vanilla flavoring, citric acid and varieties of Vitamin B such as thiamine, riboflavin and folic acid — nutrients commonly added to processed flour goods...”

Food, clothing and shelter.
Basic human needs.
So, if there’s a war, all they have to do is destroy our shelter......or items and energy for same.
