Looks like Roblaw’s at it again… robbing the working class to keep obscene profits rolling to the Parasite Class. And I bet the farmer who raised those turkeys get only a few dollars per.

That's the thing. The industry actually calls them Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs). They're literally shreds where the animals are kept and fed until they are big enough to harvest

Our turkeys live outside under the sky during the day and in secure open sided huts protected from the elements and predators at night.
