On July 17, the inspector found “green algal growth” in a puddle of standing water in a raw holding cooler. And on July 27, an inspector noted clear liquid leaking out from a square patch on the ceiling. Behind the patch, there were two other patches that were also leaking. An employee came and wiped the liquid away with a sponge, but it returned within 10 seconds. The employee wiped it again, and the liquid again returned within 10 seconds. Meanwhile, a ceiling fan mounted close by was blowing the leaking liquid onto uncovered hams in a hallway outside the room.
A picture of hell.
Every single major retailer with a deli section near me has switched to boar’s head within the last 2-3 years… guess they undercut everyone else and got good contracts by violating health and safety laws, the American capitalist way!
Im glad the German deli and regional super market go through more local organizations. Im also glad we can maintain damned near every type of livestock as well.
And yet boar’s head is consistently more expensive than anything else.
Nobody said the cost savings was gonna get passed to the consumer. What are ya, a commie?
Stores love the markup
Consumers HATE this one simple trick!
40 years ago they were one of the top brands for quality
I remember that! They were more a specialty brand that you’d find in more upscale grocery stores. Now they’re just boring, apparently disgusting, processed meat like every other brand.
I feel you could say this about every american company that has been around for 40 plus years. Enshittification is a real bitch
Race to the bottom.
It used to be a badge of honor to have a label footnote like “est. 1937”, but now I feel that just clarifies the enshittification time delta.
One of the weirder things about getting old is seeing shit like “making weeblefetzers since 2005” on store signs.
It depends on the business. Highly competitive and volatile ones, like restaurants, can still be judged by longevity, in my opinion.
The only exception to this rule is the Chili’s on 45th Street and Lamar in Austin, Texas, which exists in a timeless negative space where businesses can not die. Will not die. They are watching.
In Nov 2020, the person that ran things for years died, and control passed to other family members that immediately sued each other.
I’m any case, seems greed likely started to drive everything, they pushed expansion over safety, and wound up killing people.
In
Chiquita, Nestle, and Boeing have entered the chat.
Boeing and Boar’s head are killing people because of incompetence and cost cutting. Chiquita and Nestle go out in the jungle and massacre people at regular intervals just because those people don’t want to be slaves and having to pay workers hurts the bottom line.
I put them in different categories.
Thank god this is an isolated incident in corporate America. /s
Having managed a supermarket for about 6 years, I can tell you it’s because of the service, consistent quality and variety of choices. Their service model is similar to many of the larger bread vendors in that they sell via consignment. So you only buy what you open to sell, and they take back anything that expires or looks dodgy. Their sales reps maintain your inventory and place your orders, really saving you alot of time and reducing your risk.
