When your buddy down at the bar says this after one too many, you might be able to comfortably ignore it. When this guy says it, well...maybe not so much:
Goya Foods CEO Bob Unanue warned on Tuesday that the world is on the brink of a food crisis.
Speaking on "Mornings with Maria," he also argued that the world has "weaponized food."
"We are on the precipice of a global food crisis," the CEO told host Maria Bartiromo. ...
"They've [the Russians] attacked irrigation systems, they've attacked train systems and they've sent millions of women and children into exile," Unanue told Bartiromo, arguing that the U.S. has "provoked, in a way, this war by showing an incredible weakness."
Lest you think we're on the verge of a major crisis in the United States, Unanue wasn't so pessimistic:
As it pertains to a potential food shortage in America, Unanue said the U.S. will likely dodge that threat given "we have abundance" and "are the biggest consumers in the world."
"The countries that will suffer are the innocent ones in Africa and around the globe," he continued.
Yeah still not good news though.
We should, you know, probably be working to a speedy end to this conflict if we want to avoid this looming catastrophe.
