Corporations Gratuitously Polluting Beans With Pig Flesh

Entrenched corporations with slaughterhouse suppliers are less slow to change than the public.

Heinz has a big share of the UK bean market. Partly because of the pressure of Smithfield, world's largest pig killer, bean manufacturers like Heinz, Bush, El Paso, and Campbell are also some of the many corporations showing little respect for the many cultures which avoid pig flesh for health and ethical reasons.

Trichinosis is a disease of pig flesh with trichinella worms encased in hard shells resisting temperatures of up to 77 degrees C or 170 F. Pig flesh (pork) is correlated to cancer, heart disease, food poisoning, arthritis, kidney dysfunction etc.

ConAgra pollutes VanCamp baked beans with gratuitous pork flesh,
as the corporation shows little concern for vegans, vegetarians, Muslims, Jews,
Rastafarians, Hindus, Buddhists, Adventists, some Franciscans, some followers of Methodist John Wesley, some followers of General Booth of the Salvation Army and many
others who avoid the flesh of pigs.

ConAgra also owns and pushes Slim Jim beef jerky in many convenience stores, and
in untold thousands of stores it peddles animal flesh products such as
Wolf Brand Chili, Hebrew National Hot Dogs, Manwich, etc.

Please ask them to get out of blood foods.
