  1. No we are NOT embracing High inflation.

  2. Regarding inflation let me say ONE word. BIDEN!!!!!!!!!

  3. Why are you in Davos covering these delusional authoritarians?

  4. The consumers are partially responsible for this, because they buy luxuries they don't need. Take a gander in the average woman's shopping cart, full of blueberries and ice cream and twelve different kinds of cookies. We don't need that stuff. You don't NEED orange juice. You don't NEED eggs. You don't NEED deli meats. Yet consumers still go apeshit over them. Want food prices to drop? Stop buying things you don't need!

  5. The Success behind every Rich person today is the decision they made for themselves, so happy I'm able to acquire my second house in November even as a single Dad at 42 and I believe if things keep going well I would retire early.

  6. Davos, a subsidiary of the Vatican.

  7. 🇺🇸DONALD TRUMP🇺🇸 WAS RIGHT PREDICTED IN 2019 👍HE SAID YOU VOTED FOR JOE BIDEN THIS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW LOOK WHAT YOU GOT🤣

  8. Sounds like an ad lol

  9. What happens when the majority of people can no longer afford to work because working 40 hrs a week and not being able to afford food is not going to sustain for very long

  10. Who do these people think they are ? You will do as we say. It is time to get the torches and pitchforks and Strom the castle.

  11. Why is the CEO of Tyson in Davos? Is there a shortage of chicken or just eggs? Is the WEF negotiating with Tyson to sell to China like Swift pork or to decrease production on a schedule to be eliminated in favor of synthetic meats or insect-based? How much would it take for Tyson to allow their company to be phased out?

  12. How much is his compensation package?

  13. Biden and fuel costs.

  14. When a $10B company buys a $2B company and ends up being a $11B company, that's not 10% growth. That's predation. Same thing when a 100,000 employee company buys a company with 20,000 employees and ends up at 110,000 employees. They haven't created 10,000 jobs. They destroyed 10,000.

  15. It's been so Cha Cha… Cha ching

  16. If you voted Biden or Democrat the economy is your fault.

  17. All of you WEF supporters need to be put out of business. Done with Tyson.

  18. Tyson is owned by Chinese though, right?

  19. Dull dull dull interview and predictable nothing info from CEO….listening to the wind blow is better.

  20. when the ceo of brookshires and other food suppliers take home a BILLIONS a year. folks wonder. Even this dude rakes in 12 MILLION a year.

  21. Do not buy eggs right now. They are overpriced — let them suffer from lower sales.

  22. We (the consumer in America) never had a problem until domestic suppliers were consolidated and globalized the sales. He can feed our country and service many others, but when americas resources are scalped and distributed to the world, with America being in competition with our own resources….we lose….every time.

  23. If true we need to clone some cattle pigs & chickens since their value is going up so quickly to keep the rotation going 🤷🏻‍♂️

  24. Greed is driving inflation. I wouldn't buy Tyson products if you paid me to. Garbage food

  25. Tyson CEO wants to discuss anything EXCEPT food price inflation.

  26. It is cold outside, why are they doing interviews outside?

  27. From Tysons latest quarterly report, they have record profits. We're not dumb lol. Inflation is just a covet up for corporate greed

  28. Will she hit the speed skating oval, cross country ski course and ring the cowbell before leaving ? Stay tuned….don't touch that dual !

  29. Greed, politicians and people willing to pay anything.

  30. Extra food stamps that’s what raising food duh..

  31. This interview is just one big lie!!!!! Maria not asking the hard questions!!!!! Very Very disappointed in Maria just following a script from the WEF ELITE.

  32. mmmmm… soylent green!

  33. The guy literally said nothing. Horrible interview

  34. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today….

  35. It's just greed from governments

  36. Their products went up about $3 in the past 2 years, and as far as I know their price of feed is included in the contracts they have with the farmers, and as far as I know the farmers who raise their birds have not gotten a raise to help offset their cost increases. Support your local farmers, ranchers, and lumber mills.

  37. His salary is up 33% from last year!!!!

  38. The CEOs and Executives….duh!

  39. They’ve taken a cheap food like eggs something everyone can afford, and they made it not affordable

  40. It's the politicians in Washington driving inflation in every sector. It really doesn't get much easier to understand. You really dont need the smoke and mirrors.

  41. Bad policy of this current administration, driving the inflation.

  42. What the fk is he doing at the world economic forum?

  43. Big Phooda is even more dishonest and deceitful than big Pharma. Why the softball interview?

  44. Ah, Maria, an assignment to Davis? God bless and protect you and the coworkers seeking to bring transparency to the narrative.

  45. The consumer is not embracing high prices… We're forced to pay this if we want to feed our families.

  46. Tyson made record profits last quarter, thats part of the problem, plain old corporate greed
