I think we should take a lesson from Upton Sinclair and realize the thing that's really going to piss off the public is that their food is being processed with people coughing and vomiting all over the place.
However, I do also blame the public for deciding that cheap poultry for every meal is worth treating chickens and the humans who kill and prepare them in absolutely barbaric conditions, and that was the case well before COVID-19 was an issue.
The chickens don’t matter, it’s the humans that matter.
