WTF???

[Colt45]

Just opened a can of corn.



I looked at the back of the can - Made in Thailand. WTF.. can you even make a profit shipping corn halfway around the world?

probably shipped here in larger containers then packaged

and the workers got paid squat

 

[Chompman]

Are you sure it wasn't just the can that was made there?

 

[Sheepathon]

someone's making bank off it

 

[So]

That really doesn't seem to make sense. Maybe the label was printed overseas?

 

[sisq0kidd]

Are you located in Thailand? Because that would make sense.

WTF dont we have shitloads of corn produced in the US?

Was this some kind of super special magical corn or something that only grows in Asia?

Yes we do, but we give it to countries that can't feed themselves and then we go and import it from other countries at a extra expense... :disgust:

No, packaged there and shipped in containers 40cubic meter big (the ones that are simply loaded to railway trucks or road trucks and are ready to go)
