5. Smithfield Foods
Smithfield Foods is a pig slaughterhouse, and while this might not be considered an evil thing by those who eat bacon and pork, what this company does affects all of us.
They package around 6 billion pounds of pork annually, which means the company needs a lot of pigs. A lot of pigs automatically produce a lot of waste—about 26 million pounds per year as far as Smithfield is concerned, according to a study.
Not to mention that the pigs are raised in barns that house thousands of tightly packed hogs. The barns’ floors have slits that enable waste to fall through a network of pipes that takes it to huge open-air holding ponds.
But it gets even worse; the pigs are injected with a concoction of antibiotics, and sprayed with insecticides and chemicals that all wind up in the holding ponds.
So how does Smithfield Foods dispose of pounds of liquid, chemical-infused pig waste? They simply spray it into the air so that it floats off their property and becomes someone else’s problem.
A massive someone else’s problem filled with ammonia, methane, hydrogen sulfide, and over a hundred other toxic compounds has given people in the surrounding areas conditions like asthma, bronchitis, and neurological damage.

IBM provided the first modern computerized database to the Nazi’s to account for those shipped to concentration camps. They had to stop when the USA declared war on Germany. Now we have AI, 5G and data mining to track our every move.
These companies are killing people with chemical waste and discarded medicines. How about America, Britain, and Israel who are jointly murdering all and sundry in the Gaza War?
Bayer made the “tablets” for the gas chambers.
The nazis didn’t have gas chambers. They were delousing chambers ya uneducated kike. The holohoax never happened and that is a fact backed by countless evidence. Zyklon B is a fucking pesticide for killing lice ya stupid fucks.
I quit buying from Smithfield when the Chinese government took over.
I did the same I do not buy any Smithfield products
Bayer also makes an insecticide that kills bees that pollinate our food. They have been informed of the scientific evidence that neonic pesticides are a key factor in the alarming disappearance of bees. This also links neonic exposure to humans, including defects of the brain and heart.
What about chinese ownership of Smithfield after 300 plus years of American ownership?
GOD WILL ABIDE.
I’m no fan of Smithfield & since they are a totally Vertically Integrated company & actually have farms that farrow to finish hogs, I have no doubt that they do irrigate their fields with liquid hog waste for fertilizer, the idea that they just spray it into the air & it blows away just doesn’t
T sound right!
this whole situation is so scary. I only knew a little about Smithfield because of their factories in North Carolina. I don’t eat meat but Il will certainly spread the word. So many people eat bacon and they just are not informed. thank you for the info.
