“If you asked the average person on the street, ‘How much meat do you think is imported from other countries?’ They’d say probably none. They wouldn’t even think of it,” said Joe Rogan. Additionally, he said that he disapproves of the American firms' business practices since they claim ownership of the items.
“Especially if you get to label it a product of the USA, which is so dirty,” Joe Rogan added.
Internet reacts to Joe Rogan's podcast video
Many people commented on the video and appreciated the host and the guests' take on the topic. A user wrote, "Having farmers on to discuss topics as important as this is one of the many reasons JRE is the best."
Another person wrote, "What she’s describing specifically within the meat industry is also happening in the grocery industry. Kroger owns a baffling amount. For a time, if you had a Safeway, Albertsons, or Fred Meyer in your town…you were buying from the same people if you were shopping at any of them. There is allegedly an anti-trust lawsuit going on, but the likelihood of it amounting to anything meaningful is slim to none."
Another user wrote, "Thankyou JRE for continuing to bring on great 'guests' and keeping topical conversations alive! Industrial farming ep is GOLD."
A person also stated, "The problem was fixed when people lived on land and didn't rely on industrial farming and instead traded with neighbors. People chose city life and having to rely on others to get dirty."
