Prior to World War II, American farmers were able to produce 40 bushels of corn per acre. As of 2015, with modern fertilizer, insecticides, weed killers, and seeds, American farmers were able to produce 200 bushels of corn per acre.

They are bitching because they can't sell Soy Beans to China. How about growing food for our market tables?

There's a consented effort to keep prices high at the Grocery store, these Corporate Farmers think they are entitled to easy profits.
Trump is not Bush and Obama he doesn't take great joy in punishing struggling working families.

If it's cane sugar Coke, which that bottle looks like, I actually don't have an issue as long as you brush your teeth twice a day and maybe only have one or two a week. We call it Mexican Coke. We'll get six a week and let the kids have 2 on the weekends (3 kids). I see no harm in it and they're not hyper kids even with the sugar and caffeine. Not fat remotely so not worried about health.

McDonalds can eat shit though. Pissed when the wife gets it for the kids. I almost puke when I smell it. Even driving by.

Well, she seems to have lived a long time being a customer.

I did a shorter experiment - about 2 years, with the same result. Nothing ate the McD's shite.

Contrast that with real food like fresh eggs - bacteria and maggots eat that shit up because unlike micky-d's shite, it's nutritious.

I thought pink slime in mcdonald was crazy, now claim is that there aren't enough cows to make this much beef.

Ahhhh hold on..... the numbers presented are not as alarming as the message intended.

23M lbs/mon Mcd burgers (0.76M lbs daily)
44M lbs/day beef production capacity

Assuming 30days/mon, M needs about 0.76M lbs/day still leaving 43.24M lbs, just about all of daily produced beef for the rest.

Not a big fan of most american fast foods in America though many of the same brands are wayyyy better around the world !!!! But there are other worse issues about fast foods than this message is trying to convey.

I only shop on the outside aisles (fruits/veggies). All center aisles are poison.

At some point this kind of thinking was “you are a liberal communist hippie”, finally the rest of low information society waking up from corporate propaganda and seeing just how screwed everything is. Always hated their worship of big corporations.

Same but I add lots of heathy meets and fats. Last month on a hunch I checked the chips aisle and they now have an avacado oil brand so I bought some. Pretty good. Grill up some marinated skirt steak, guac, salsa, cheese, make nachos!

They put them at the end of the (internal to) aisle at the bottom, basically on the floor though so that sucks. I just grabbed from the back hoping less foot-stuff on the bag.

They have other flavors too.

"Nixtamalized refers to corn that has undergone the nixtamalization process, a traditional Mesoamerican method where dried corn kernels are soaked and cooked in an alkaline solution, typically made with lime (calcium hydroxide) or wood ash.

This process softens the corn, removes the inedible outer hull (pericarp), and significantly enhances its nutritional profile by increasing the bioavailability of essential nutrients such as niacin (vitamin B3), calcium, iron, and magnesium.

The resulting product, known as nixtamal, is then rinsed and ground into masa dough, which is used to make tortillas, tamales, and other traditional Mexican dishes.

Without nixtamalization, corn would be difficult to grind and lacks sufficient nutritional value, particularly in terms of niacin, which is crucial for preventing pellagra."

The ingredients list isn't frightening either.
