Wonder if the price of cultivating tomatoes along with someone’s Perfidity in the White House brought this about.

“One unit will focus on North American grocery items, including brands like Oscar Mayer, Kraft Singles, and Lunchables. The other unit will primarily handle sauces, spreads, and seasonings, encompassing brands such as Heinz, Philadelphia, and Kraft Mac & Cheese.”

The financialization of capitalism results in the cyclical churning of corporate structures for no purpose other than short term stock price manipulation.

We're just so far past the point, if it ever existed, where companies try to build the best products to serve consumers. I feel like capitalism might be defensible on paper, but any defense crumbles when you see how it plays out in the real world.

100%. Once a market gets saturated, it becomes impossible to sustain the rate of growth through increased production. So industry self-cannibalizes ("financializes"). Sucks for everybody except major shareholders.

So true. Seems there was a day 'give the people what they want' was a winning business plan. Now far too many are 'give the people 💩 and take all their $ for it' is the only plan. Blame IG/TikTok creator mentality for the click-bait economy.
