As aggressive as your post is, I have to agree, and kudos for NPR for not groping for the juicier headline:
> "It is impossible to keep our grocery stores stocked if our plants are not running," Smithfield Foods CEO Kenneth Sullivan said in a statement.
No, it's impossible to keep the _meat aisles_ stocked, which is an aisle I and lots of other Americans couldn't care less about.

- bryanlarsen 7y agoEasy meat substitutes like tofu will run out very shortly after real meat does. Demand and thus supply for these is very small compared to the demand for real meat. I hope you know how to cook with stuff like dry chickpeas. There's normally little retail demand for them but it'll be easier to shift wholesale capacity to retail.
