Taylor Fresh Foods, parent company of Taylor Farms, is voluntarily recalling some products that include jalapenos because of worries about a possible salmonella contamination.
I saw no reference in this article of the $1.50/hour cap that Arizona inmates receive working for The Diarrhea Lettuce company - formerly known as Taylor Farms.
Though that was the case with the recent iceberg lettuce diarrhea catastrophe, which has made thousands sick and killed two people.
There is no excuse for coercing prison inmates to work effectively as slaves. Also, it’s clear that FDA regulations are lacking, endangering all residents.
Yup. Agriculture slavery has been proven to be wildly more than paid labor. Taylor Farms could have picked up a book and learned that many studies have been done on this. Before the tractor was invented yes. But now, it’s a sunken cost at every level. Paying someone $1.50 an hour sounds great, but transporting one slave requires at least one guard. All prisons require a 6 to 1 ration for safety. No guard is going to sit on a horse in 100 degrees weather for less than $100k a year. You have to pay for transportation. Slaves don’t give a shit about your margins. They are going to smash, eat, crush, steal, and destroy as much procduct as they can get away with. And finally, slaves don’t care if your product is safe. They are going to rightfully be sabotaging every aspect of your business.
