How the Food Industry Actually Works
Somewhere in Arkansas or Georgia, a chicken plant is running three shifts back to back so America doesn’t run out of wings on Super Bowl Sunday. Meat alone moves $1.52 trillion a year, $8.71 trillion once you count everything else on the plate, and a handful of companies decide years in advance exactly how many birds get born. Here’s how the food industry actually works, from the 1948 Chicken of Tomorrow contest and Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle to the four companies behind your whole plate, the foreign owners of American meat, and the pandemic that broke the machine.
