tick tock meat fags

>>13996715
They're way late on making money off it. All the meat got bought up in the initial hoarding and now cuts that are usually bought up otherwise are still there.

Chinese owned company just wants bailout money, might end up getting seized by the government as a vital industry so the bugmen get nothing.

Good thing I’ve got some grass fed tenderloin steak in my fridge.

This is just meat corps trying to drum up demand because they're desperate to appease their shareholders. There will be no real shortage because we don't live in the Soviet Union.

>>13996715
As a vegan, am I supposed to feel sad about this?

It would be a blessing if tyson shithole chicken went under. The meat supply is not in danger. Maybe prices will go up and some specific products will be out of stock for awhile because tyson fucked up, but demand is soaring. You can be sure other companies will be lining up to make a killing right now.

>>13997346
You should already feel bad about being a vegan.

>>13996715
I call bullshit, it's a strategy to shill on this emergency plus they've always been full of shit.

>>13997429
Of course it’s bullshit because Tyson doesn’t own any farms it’s contracted out to Billy Bob in Kentucky who is panicking because he raped all his chickens to death and Tyson wants them shipped out tomorrow so they are inb4ing the arrival of 2 roosters on a truck with no explanation as “the virus caused it”

>>13997346
Yes because you're next.

This isn't a war where infrastructure is destroyed. It's the government either not letting people work or paying people more money to stay at home than to work.

>>13997501
Yeah cause we all want our meat coming from coof central. Happy you think people should risk their families and friends' safeties for minimum wage so they can feed the rich that can work from home and make dividends.

I'm not even poor but come the fuck on.

>>13996715
Lmao, is their only meat option Tyson mechanically separated chicken? I know a local butcher who'll be packing meat long after "the supply chain" cracks. Absolute pity, all those Tyson meat eaters! They might have to go vegan!

>>13997343

What about poor or middle-income people who eat meat? They're the ones that are affected most by insecurity in the food chain; not the people who can elect to pay whatever the cost for food. Or do they just not matter to you?

>>13997686
Just eat less meat for a while

>>13997688
What happens when meat eaters can't get meat anymore and buy more beans and tofu and put stress on the food chain for proteins that aren't animal based? Realistically speaking I think the article in OP is exaggerating things, but it can take months for markets to adjust to demand. If you think people will just eat salads for every meal you're an idealistic vegan retard.

>>13997699
Or they just don't buy soylent "chicken" from

>>13996715

i mean why are you buying tyson chicken anyway, this is middle american as fucked. imagine not being able to buy frozen chicken product from some massive multinational and not knowing where to get meat.

>people should not be allowed to work at chicken farms and processing facilities during the coronavirus outbreak

>>13997718
You know that Tyson doesn't exclusively make the LE YUCKY MUCKY EPIC PINK GOO you saw on Facebook, right?

>>13997699
Beans are far, far less likely to be strained by virtue of the fact that beans can't contract coronavirus like chickens can, and beans are naturally shelf stable for months. It's much easier to produce a mass of beans than a mass of chicken meat

>>13997723
>contract coronavirus like chickens can
The chickens aren't being incinerated because they have COVID19. They're being incinerated because there's no one to process them because the various governments shut everything down.

>>13997722

That crap in your pic related is not locally sourced thats been processed at a plant and sent in a frozen truck over thousands of miles so you can get your every day low price at your super walmart.

Find a butcher or farm like a coastie. Maybe shutting down these processing plants is a good thing because it'll teach you flyovers a thing about supporting local businesses so your backwater towns dont keep getting fucked by multinationals

what does heavyweight boxing have to do with meat production?

I can't wait to see what kind of cool crunchy stuff chefs will start making from insects and bugs. When it really takes off the prices will drop a ton and be a really cheap source of protein. Not to mention factory grown muscle.

>>13996823
I don't see why. (((Tyson)) is just one company, that's already deeply invested in fake "meat" so this marketing stunt should be seen as a ploy to shift lower IQ buyers to the soy slop so Tyson can quadruple profits slinging fake food to vegans and simps.

>>13997319
Interesting hmmmm. There is no such thing as "covid-19" so these kosher plants are obviously shutting down for other reasons. Only possible guess would be they want to scare us away from healthy food towards the soy slop "food" section. (Vegan "meat" etc)

The plant shutdowns really mean nothing when Mexico, Australia and places like Argentina would fucking love to be allowed to export more beef to us if our facilities shut down for their own corrupt retarded reasons.

>>13998116
It's a real monkey paw situation on that one. The economy likely will completely collapse, but the downside is that humanity is probably on its way out.

Chinks seemed to do just fine with selling and processing meat illegally after they semi-accindentally killed half their pigs.
>inb4 big bro is watching
Food counterfeiting was at an all time high even before this. And at a time like this it'd be especially easy to switch some labels on containers and forge a bit of paperwork. Shouldn't be too hard to claim it was all processed and frozen a few months ago for example.
All you need is a bit of space and a bunch of hard working guys who are willing to not ask questions.

>>13996833
It’s not bait at all in Canada we have two massive meat plants that push out 70% of all our meat (import and export) and they are both crippled by COVID right now, which is devastating our supply chains.

So what? We'll learn to enjoy vegetables and support small farms.

Ah, Tyson, the hardcore Mormon family business created by using LDS tithes to viciously buy up every small food processing company they could get their hands on. One of the bigger job creators...in Mexico.

This brand fills me with trust and I rest assured they didn't simply take money from a leftist think tank to say something manipulative during a crisis.

>he thinks this is the worst of it
The coming economic crash will make the depression look like a vacation. Having any food and a place to live will be a luxury.

You can't get Tyson chicken around here. I ordered a bunch of tendies recently from out of country just in time for them to close.

>>14000670
but we already know thousands of people get sick with food related illness due to handling incorrectly. isn't this just increasing the risk that the virus will spread throughout the nation? at least e.coli and salmonella isn't as infectious as the coronavirus.

>>13996715
WTF does Iron Mike have to do with the food supply?

>>14000688
The difference is that E coli and salmonella are food-borne illnesses. The novel coronavirus is not a food-borne illness.

>>14000717
that is not reassuring. you're basically just saying that on top of the existing dangers of improper food handling, we will have to contend with catching a highly infectious disease on a product that ships internationally. the novel coronavirus isn't a food borne illness correct, but we know it can live on surfaces for days and with refrigeration and the amount of viral matter on products. possibly weeks.

>>13996715
>sister works at Redners
>first day corona was on the news every boomer and their grandmother rushed the store and bought literally all the meat they had
>two days later hordes of them started showing up trying to return it because they realized they have nothing to do with 50lbs of ground beef

People are stupid.

>>14000748
add, chicken is chlorinated so that risk is low, but the other meats? not so much.

>>14000748
>I'm scared because I might get coronavirus from eating undercooked meat!
>There's no evidence to support that coronavirus is food-borne. It is a respiratory disease that infects via aerosolized saliva and mucus.
>SO YOU'RE SAYING I CAN GET CORONAVIRUS FROM CHICKEN?! THAT IS NOT REASSURING!

>society full of overgrown children is breaking down because daddy government can't provide them their regular dino nuggies shipment

We need a good cleaning anyway.

>>13996715
Joke's on you, I get my chicken from Perdue

>>14000775

anon, we know scientifically that the virus is spread via respiratory fluids and respiratory fluids can exist on food products because they are still a surface. i don't think you understand what 'food borne illness' means. it's not about eating undercooked meat to catching the coronavirus, it's about handling the meat improperly which could spread the virus. are you retarded? also, im not too familiar about chlorinated chicken, i'm assuming that it's dunked in a chlorinated bath at the very end of the production line, not at the beginning. if it's at the beginning then it's back to square one.

glad I'm gonna be here for the tendie riots of 2020

>>14000801
Do you not wash your hands after handling meat or something? What are we even arguing about? The general welfare of workers in meat processing/packing facilities or the end-user?

>>13996715
We'll just have to eat something else for a while.

>>14000813
i understand that, but thousands of people still get ill from handling meat because guess what? out of millions of meat eaters not all of them practice the proper handling techniques. so now you have a bunch of people who didn't practice proper handling techniques potentially infected with a virus that is more infectious than e.coli and the other food borne illnesses. i'm arguing about the prudence allowing meat factories to continue to operate while workers are infected with the coronavirus because we don't even know how long the virus can live on the surface of meat under refrigeration.

Where in the supply chain is the issue? Meat should be dirt cheap right now due to the oil crash.

>>14000841
Are you vegan?

>>14000861
no i love meat. wtf kind of insinuation is that?

>>14000865
You just seem preoccupied with how potentially filthy meat is, the negligence of meat eaters with regard to hygiene and don't seem bothered by changes to the animal based protein supply chain.

>>14000886
the fuck? i just explained how meat is processed. it is kind of dirty, but that's just the way it has to be to deliver the product cost-effectively. i can live with it. what i do find disturbing is if people can get infected with the corona virus via our food supply because that would increase the risk of outbreaks throughout the country, rural or metropolitan.

There is a subset of people that test positive for Covid19 with an initial onset of gastrointestinal symptoms instead of respiratory symptoms. It's considered a possibility that these people got it by swallowing it into the stomach instead of through the aerosolized route.

The issue is you have millions of hogs that need to be processed and without the plants open to handle that kind of volume, they'll end up being euthanized.
If restaurants start opening back up well before slaughter houses can, there will be a lack of supply which could drastically raise prices. The market prices are dropping, but that doesn't mean the grocery stores and butcher shops will follow.

I'm aware of housands of market ready hogs that'll be killed this week from just one farm and another farmer that is having to kill the piglets right after birth.

Just when I thought I'd seen everything it was possible to see here ...

During the initial rush (week 1 or 2 of lockdown) my grocery store actually ran out of meat. The only thing left in the meat department was an 8 foot section full to the brim of plant-based "meat" lol. Not a single fucking package of that shit was sold.

Looks fine to me

That's the problem with veg and veg*n diets being pushed though, the obsession with purity. Cutting down meat to a couple meals per weak for nutrients while having veg as fodder isn't allowed.

>>14003317
This is a different thing all together. Processing plants are shut down. Farmers have crops and livestock with no where to go so they're dumping them and losing tens of thousands of dollars if not much more. Most farmers can't afford that and will be out of a job
