Local and organic, but at least these are American potatoes. I imagine most of our produce comes from other countries which is even less local than American…
Feels like big corporate agriculture trying to further their control. Wonder how these information exchanges have been used against the few remaining independent farmers and co-ops out there? If they are controlling the price of sales of finished product, it is fair to assume. They are trying to control or manipulate the price of potato crops at harvest as well.
😂🤣 I laughed so hard at the thought of Idahoan spud farmers doing gangsta rap, wearing tattoos, and abducting people like the Mexican Cartels and Venezuelan Cartels. This reminds me of a time that I saw koalas on Animal Planet behaving as if they were in an episode of "Criminal Minds."
It's a sort of new thing I guess. Corps can let their computers conspire with each other while claiming that no actual humans are conspiring with each other so it's not really conspiring. Didn't they just bust a bunch of landlords for doing the same thing to jack up rents across cities?
Lets all boycott them for it,let em keep those taters frozen for a LONG time. Yeah i noticed fries really went thru the roof,quit eating them because of it.
This has happened in pretty much every facet of our lives.
The real crime was locking everyone down for Covid. That hurt the economy more than anything.
This is what happened with housing rental market as well - every facet of our lives
I believe that is is called "The illusion of choice". Glad I don't eat potatoes.
I never thought I’d hear the phrase “potato cartel” outside of a comedy sketch.
It would be great to see more restaurants using local food supplies

Not just that industry
All eyes are on them. I hope they can hash this out before it goes to court and ends up being "appeeled".

Well, I lived long enough to actually see the term 'Potato Cartels'

Capitalism at work.
This is why prices are so high... corporate greed. But facts are unimportant to many.

Collusion doesn't have to be overt to be effective. You simply let each other peek at plans and financial numbers.
We got a potato cartel before GTA6
So that's why it costs over four dollars for a large mcd 🍟?
Screw them?!
And theyll still pay and treat their employees like trash
That explains the plastic body parts in my mashed potatoes.
hmmmm, might need to look into another explanation
My picky grandson is a potato 🥔 man. The frozen fries are too ridiculously expensive!
Stand by for many meaningful checks and balances to be ripped away
Most "meaningful" checks and balances have been ignored for the last four years.
If they have 95% market share , need more manufacturers to even things out , right ??
High prices smaller size i quit buying frozen.
Maybe this is something Trump can fix.
Its something Trump would do himself if it made him a buck
Mr. Potato head was taken down. 😂
I love potatoes 🥔
I hope RFK goes after all this BS!!
