On July 17, the inspector found “green algal growth” in a puddle of standing water in a raw holding cooler. And on July 27, an inspector noted clear liquid leaking out from a square patch on the ceiling. Behind the patch, there were two other patches that were also leaking. An employee came and wiped the liquid away with a sponge, but it returned within 10 seconds. The employee wiped it again, and the liquid again returned within 10 seconds. Meanwhile, a ceiling fan mounted close by was blowing the leaking liquid onto uncovered hams in a hallway outside the room.
A picture of hell.
You can stop supporting this evil by going vegan :)
no one supports this.
By purchasing meat from companies like this, you absolutely are. Support your local butcher if you do consume.
you are stretching the definition of support to meaninglessness.
By giving them your money, you are funding the operation of the plants that produce the meat. And lining the pockets of those that make the decisions to act this way. It is not meaningless.
If you don’t give them money, it hurts their bottom line and forces either change or the shutting down of the business. You can speak volumes through making more ethical decisions about where your money goes.
most people don’t give money to BoarsHead. they give it to a grocer.
no matter what i buy at the grocery store, my money goes to the grocer.
If were being pedantic, if you purchase with a card your money actually goes to the bank, who transfers it to Visa, who transfers it to the grocer. The grocer restocks the item you purchased, transferring a portion of your money (less all the upstream overhead/fees) to the manufacturer of your purchased good.
If people stop buying products with a harmful supply chain, grocers stop stocking it. They’re not just putting processed deli meat on the shelves because they think meat bricks look cool.
To be super pedantic, no, ownership of your money never transfers to visa. When your card is swiped (tapped, whatever) visa (or mc or Amex or whoever else) facilitates communication between your bank and the merchant’s bank, but no money moves yet. At the end of the day the merchant settles out those transactions, but that’s still just data. The money moves typically a day or two later, and that is done directly between the customer and merchant’s bank. Source: worked in credit card processing for ~9 years.
TIL! thanks for that!
they can choose not to do that. it’s not as though they literally re-order every product the moment they sell a unit.
“they can choose not to do that. it’s not as though they literally re-order every product the moment they sell a unit.”
No shit. Most stock systems just remove that item from current inventory, and when it gets too low it triggers a reorder request.
Corporations do not abide by ethics. They do not care about anything but increasing profits. So not buying certain things causes stock to sit, and in this case expire. That hurts their bottom line, and so it is more likely to trigger change in the form of them no longer stocking said item to sell. Are you really this dense?
Somebody walks the aisles at 10 pm every night scanning the out of stocks.
this isn’t causal, and the grocers can choose to stop stocking it for any reason or no reason.
whatever their reason, it’s their choice, not mine.
This is factual. Don’t downvote facts just because you don’t like them.
