I will NEVER buy anything made by Tyson anymore! I will do my homework and make sure whatever I buy is NEVER a Tyson product!!!

Why then is Blackrock and Vanguard buying stock and bugs?

[@equine2020]

We need to go back to consumers buying directly from the farmers. Cheaper & healthier food. No middle man getting rich.

It’s all about the money,the hell with the people it affects.

The only reason Tyson foods is in business is because YOU BUY THEIR PRODUCTS. Simple solution quit buying Tyson foods.

WELL!!!!!! If people are not working how are they supposed to afford the product, corporate greed has not kept up with the 22-25%, increase in pay versus the product.
