    Default Roquette lockout continues; Union members line up for unemployment

    Basically this is a food processor in the area, corn sweetener. The Company wanted to completely wipe out the union contract and start with a clean slate. The Union didn't think they could operate without them. They were wrong, 250 union members out of a job and plenty of people to fill their shoes in a county with over 10% unemployment.

    I don't like what they did but you better not think you can just do things like the old status quo.

    High Fructose Corn Syrup type?
    I'm finding more and more foods trending away from HFCS post haste.
    Might be a blessing in disguise?
