What Would Colonel Sanders Think?
CEO BLOG
Yes, I am talking about KFC, or Kentucky Fried Chicken, as us old folks remember it by. We grew up with Kentucky Fried Chicken being represented by Colonel Harlan Sanders - the white haired, white suited founder and spokesman.
Last week, the KFC Corporation announced that by 2018 all their chickens would be grown without antibiotics. Now mind you-I am a proponent of raising chicken without antibiotics and Rogers Poultry has already switched a large part of our production to ABF (antibiotic free) birds.

America's Bacon Reserves Are at a '50-Year Low'
NEWS
American democracy is probably crumbling, and now comes more terrible news that threatens to undermine faith in our country's institutions. The United States' bacon reserves are at their
lowest levels in half a century. The nonprofit Ohio Pork Council reports that demand for frozen pork belly is outpacing supply, as farmers can't keep up with the demands despite, in the worlds of the organization's president Rich Deaton, raising "more pigs than ever."
The good news: There's still a lot of frozen pork belly left in the coffers - 17.8 million pounds to be exact, as of December 2016 - so America won't run out of bacon yet, but the bacon blues will cause
