True, but this is what Smithfield says.... and no, not addressing "trust" issues on this post either Anyway - here are more info from Smithfield: Our Ownership Structure (smithfieldfoods.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgavin Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I never mentioned "importing". Good to know they are not importing pork from China. My statement was that Smithfields is owned by the WH Group in China. My son runs a Homeless to Housing program in SoCal. He tells me all the housing he contacts is Chinese owned. My eldest daughter is PCS in Guam. She tells me all the rental housing is owned by Chinese. A bug/surveillance sweep is the norm before renting one of these properties. Italy was slammed so quickly, and so intensely with C19, because of the huge Chinese business presence there. My point is, there is a pattern working here. Q: what is a "trust" issue on this post?

Warden Callaway Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Getting ready to cook my breakfast this morning and pulling together the commodities, I couldn't find the bacon or sausage. We just shopped yesterday - ALDI and Wally-World. I asked Sawmill Mary where's the bacon? She said there wasn't any. (Translation, no store brand or on sale) She said the meat display was shockingly bare. Meat, the new TP for holders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Dan Dawkins Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I don't eat pork anymore and pretty cut out all dairy, but I will stand proudly and defend the rights of those men and women that do. If poultry prices go up anymore, it might make sense to raise my own broilers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
