Very well researched. The scary truth about the huge corporations who control the worlds meat supply and so much more. It's disgusting to realize that we believe and what is really the truth is so widely separated. A real eye-opener that was easy to read and understand.

If you've ever wondered how Tyson became so successful, this book is a must-read. I've worked in and around the poultry industry but most of my experience is as a USDA inspector. I learned an incredible amount from this book about how the growers get paid and about the "tournament," something you'll understand once you read the book. I'm sure Tyson would prefer that this book had never been published.
