as an employee of Cargill, I must say that you are a hundred percent wrong in assuming we use GMO barley. You are also wrong in assuming we are cheap, low grade malt suppliers. In fact we are one of there more pricey suppliers because of our strict quality control and superior barley that we purchase from Canada and the United states.
Furthermore we have a great track record of working with our customers to deliver exactly what they want, when they want it, consistently time and time again.
Finally on our non business complaints. Most of them if not all are related to our other business areas namely meat and palm oil.
First we supply meat as demanded by our customers, that means you. Every time you go to a place with so called dubious meat quality you further the demand for cheap meat. You want it we supply it. You want high grade free range grass fed beef ***** at mcdonalds. Customers come to us with specs we just supply what they want. We can't sell a product no one wants, its a business.
And for our overseas operations, i.e. Palm oil, we follow all local laws and all American laws. Yes some rainforest destruction has occurred but no longer, we are on pace to be sustainable on our palm oil business.
Anyway a little off track but I get a little aggravated when Cargill catches a bad rap. We are private, quiet company that generally keeps to ourselves and that causes people to get the wrong idea.
Also we make the food you eat, you know what they say about the hand that feeds you.... (OK that parts a joke, couldn't resist)
Right on! Thanks for responding, that's perfect.
(in defense of wailingguitar, he was not the target of this cargill response, it was the OP; such is collateral damage)
