To say many Americans are furious with Tyson Foods right now would be an understatement. When word broke that they are closing a plant in Iowa so they can hire migrants in states with more “refugee-friendly” employment laws, the backlash was swift and may continue for a long time.
In short, they’re getting the “Bud Light Treatment” and rightly so. An entire popular beer brand was effectively decimated because they put an image of a transgender man on their cans. Shouldn’t the anger be heightened against a company that is firing 1,200 employees in a town with only 8,000 people?
“As a disabled veteran whose food company only hires American citizens, this news really struck me hard,” said Jason Nelson, co-founder of Prepper All-Naturals. “We are working very hard to not only feed Americans but to also employ them as valued members of our community.”
Prepper All-Naturals specializes in premium long-term storage beef. Their Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and Sirloin products come from Texas cattle on Texas ranches. They do not work with corporate brands like Tyson Foods.
But Tyson is not the only brand owned by the food juggernaut. Some other popular brands, including Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, and Ball Park, are under the Tyson Foods umbrella. For those who want to stop purchasing from a company that harms American citizens so they can virtue-signal regarding migrants while paying lower wages, here’s a handy list. Click it, print it out or save it to your phone, and reference it when shopping for groceries.
This isn’t about politics. It’s about self-preservation. If corporations are going to pan American citizen workers for the sake of virtue signaling, then they need to feel the pressure for their actions.
