We love pork, we have to admit it…NYT has an article today about a giant U.S. pork company in Eastern Europe.
It reads, “Old customs and jobs are dying and the air itself is changing, however, transformed by an American newcomer, Smithfield Foods. Almost unnoticed by the rest of the Continent, the agribusiness giant has moved into Eastern Europe with the force of a factory engine, assembling networks of farms, breeding pigs on the fast track, and slaughtering them for every bit of meat and muscle that can be squeezed into a sausage.”
In other news, Amazon says it is fixing the Kindle’s computerized-voice feature, which had trouble with “Barack Obama.”
