I was in a long check out line yesterday because only one person was working. Someone behind me asked the cashier if she had any help and she said, "just my manager but she's in the back working on something else." The person behind me said, "God Bless you for working because nobody else seems to want to. We've got that idiot, Biden in office so now I have to buy my groceries here to afford to eat. We need Trump back and everyone's afraid to say it. Well, I'm not afraid, I'm saying it to you all!"

You are correct. China is buying up pork plants because they go thru so much pork in their diet they can't support themselves. The hogs are still processed in VA but who knows what changed in their processes when the Chinese bought them. Remember the Chinese have a ton of people, and they can just make more if they become ill or die from their awful safety and processing habits. I'm not saying they bring the same practices to the USA but it doesn't matter to me anyway - I won't buy their products as long as I can avoid them. Nearly everything seems to be made in China, and we are financing the CCP so they can take us over one day.
They may not even change the processing methods, but they could do things like adding more water to raise the package weight and charge more per pound. Look at a package of lunch meat in the plastic packages. The number 1 or 2 ingredient is usually water, and if you look they usually say "water added".
I actually did some contract work in Smithfield, but at the nuclear plant, so I know the area. I also lived in Lovettsville in the north for a bit (not counting the 5 yrs at the Pentagon). As for the country ham - I used to eat the sandwiches (hot, on a roll) at fairs and carnivals growing up in western Maryland.
