  4. By contrast, large #corporations in #Minneapolis have been much less vocal about the effects of #immigration enforcement on the city, known as both a bastion of progressive politics in the #US #Midwest & a robust corporate #employer. 17 #Fortune500 companies are based in #Minnesota, including #Target, #UnitedHealth, & #GeneralMills.

  5. This is good, good news, y'all.

    The #RodaleInstitute is helping #GeneralMills transition GM farms to organic farming, aka farming without chemicals -- as #RobBell puts it: that thing that for thousands of years was just called #FARMING.

    AND #Sprouts is the fastest-growing retail grocery in the USA.

    Whole episode is great, but what I'm referring to is 07:15 - 15:20.

  6. #TIL American grocery store staples like #LuckyCharms cereal, Triscuits to #Cheetos & #Chewy brand #granola bars were revealed as being made by migrant children working in allegedly unsafe conditions at secretive processing plants in #GrandRapids, #Michigan?

    The #PrivateEquity owned mfgr now seeking #Chapter11 bankruptcy protections has been hit with numerous govt probes, ranging from blocking #Unionization efforts to #ADA issues to exploiting #ChildLabor across 28 facilities in multiple states with over 12,000 employees.

    A 2023 #NYTimes investigation found factory floors staffed with low wage undocumented staff, including kids and that has led to recent #bankruptcy filing of Hearthside #Food Solutions, a mass market production & packaging firm

    "It would be hard to find a cookie or cracker aisle in any leading grocer that does not contain multiple products from #Hearthside production facilities,” said Richard Roscoe, manager of just one of the corp's four plants in the Grand Rapids, Mich area.

    Hearthside , whose plants are largely reliant on non union #TempWorkers , has been publicly mentioned as a partner to #GeneralMills and #PepsiCo. In 2014 Hearthside Food Solutions was sold to #GoldmanSachs and 2018, it was announced #HearthsideFood purchased a #Kellogg cereal production plant in Indiana. Mgmt s proud of flaunt titles such as being named to lists of "Fastest Growing Private Companies" and is recipient of multiple innovation awards, and rarely touts or mentions its many labor law violations or legal troubles.

  7. Caught some #shrinkflation in action from #BettyCrocker / #GeneralMills at #Kroger.

    I bought what I thought were 2 identical boxes of brownie mix. Nominally the same product, and they're the same price, but one box (expires in 2024) contains 19.9 oz of mix, while the other (expires in 2025) only contains 16.3 oz.

    That's nearly 20% less product for the same price. And the instructions call for the same amount of eggs and oil, so you end up with shittier brownies.

  8. "Why are we talking about whether paying fast food workers a better wage will drive up the cost of a Big Mac instead of asking how much
    McDonald's CEO's $17.8M
    salary is driving up the cost?"

  9. "General Mills just paid a $300 million dividend to investors, bought back $150 million in stock to enrich execs and investors and pays its CEO $16 million. It makes 2.1 billion a year in profit.

    It is raising prices on cereals 20% and blaming 'inflation.'"

  10. #GeneralMills has showered giveaways on registered #dietitians who promote its cereals w/the hashtag DerailTheShame, & #sponsored #influencers who promote its sugary snacks. The co also enlisted #lobbyists & pushed back against fed policies that would add #health info to #FoodLabels.

    …Online dietitians—many of them backed by food makers—also are building lucrative followings by co-opting #AntiDiet msgs. Anti-diet hashtags…have proliferated on #SocialMedia.

  11. One company in particular, #GeneralMills, maker of CocoaPuffs & LuckyCharms cereals, has launched a multi-pronged campaign that capitalizes on the teachings of the #AntiDiet movement….

General Mills has toured the country touting anti-diet research it claims proves the harms of “food shaming” [it does harm, but doesn’t necessitate unhealthy food habits].
