By the way, a lot of those companies in that chart are not US companies.

Our meat may be grown here but it's sent to China to be packaged and sent back here to be sold in grocery stores. If China wanted to get nippy they could decide to not send it back. 

I think it's 100% absurd meat is not packaged in the US. How much money is wasted? It's absurd.
