[The empressof all]

In case you missed this.

I'm a TJ's lover but I'm beginning to wonder. First it was the misleading labels on their Chicken Lime Burger (love em but twice the fat than what's on the label?) http://www.hungry-girl.com/askhg/askhgdetails.php?isid=1457

Now.... Two Buck Chuck label buys from farmer who mistreats his pickers?

What the hell is the world coming to.

I tell you...It's the end times.....

1. The good news is that TJ's has a history of good response to consumer feedback.

Nobody wants to pay high prices for food but too often the reason that it's so cheap is exploitation. This farm labor contractor may be headed out of business with the second citation. Water, shade for breaks, and a toilet are too much for this bastard? UFW worked long and hard to get these simple protections for field workers.

2. Its $2 a bottle

If they sell it for $2 does it really seem like the pickers and processors would be paid very well?

edit: sorry, I missed the story.. that really sucks.
