The following is a press release from Tyson Foods, on October 17th:
Tyson Foods, Inc., one of the world’s largest food companies, has reached an agreement for a two-fold investment with Protix, the leading global insect ingredients company. The strategic investment will support the growth of the emerging insect ingredient industry and expand the use of insect ingredient solutions to create more efficient sustainable proteins and lipids for use in the global food system. The agreement combines Tyson Foods’ global scale, experience and network with Protix’s technology and market leadership to meet current market demand and scale production of insect ingredients.
Through a direct equity investment, Tyson Foods will acquire a minority stake in Protix to help fund its global expansion. In addition, Tyson Foods and Protix have entered a joint venture for the operation and construction of an insect ingredient facility in the continental United States. Upon completion, it will be the first at-scale facility of its kind to upcycle food manufacturing byproducts into high-quality insect proteins and lipids which will primarily be used in the pet food, aquaculture, and livestock industries.
Our partnership with Protix represents the latest strategic investment by Tyson Foods in groundbreaking solutions that drive added value to Tyson Foods’ business.
The insect lifecycle provides the opportunity for full circularity within our value chain, strengthening our commitment to building a more sustainable food system for the future.
John R. Tyson, chief financial officer of Tyson Foods, said
Kees Aarts, CEO of Protix, says:
We are very excited to announce the next step in our international growth strategy. Tyson Foods’ and Protix’s strategic partnership advances our joint work towards creating high-quality, more sustainable protein using innovative technology and solutions.
Moreover, we can immediately use their existing byproducts as feedstock for our insects. This agreement is a major milestone for Protix and significantly accelerates our ambition to grow through international partnerships.
The to-be-built facility in the U.S. will house an enclosed system to support all aspects of insect protein production including the breeding, incubating, and hatching of insect larvae. In addition to ingredients for the aquaculture and pet food industries, processed larvae may also be used as ingredients within livestock and plant feed.
Protix is a fully integrated insect ingredients company, producing and processing 14,000 metric tons LLE annually in its Netherlands facility which has been in operation since 2019. It serves major global companies in the pet food, aquaculture feed, livestock feed and organic fertilizer industries as the demand for insect ingredients continues to grow.
Tyson Foods continues to develop solutions to create a food system that is more sustainable and equitable for future generations. To learn more about Tyson Foods’ sustainability initiatives, visit tysonfoods.com/sustainability.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
You will eat ze bugs and be happy!
For as much as Americans and Westerners have been hesitant so far to eat the bugs and plant-based slop and the lab-grown crap (though Europeans in certain countries are a little more open to it), these companies and ultrarich stakeholders continue to invest absurd amounts of money into this venture. Always follow the money. The elites, including Tyson, which controls a sizeable amount of the food chain in the U.S. and the West, are planning to get the masses to eat this crap.
Tyson, as it has for years, has been forcing small farmers out of business, and now they and others like them are really ratcheting up the pressure on the little guy.

Will it work? That remains to be seen; but we do know that false flags and trigger events will be needed as the catalyst to enforce massive change.
[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. [4] For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: [5] For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. 1 Timothy 4:1-5
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

I am hoping my local farmers can stay in business. I don’t know where to start when exploring this topic. For starters: health info-If you are allergic to shellfish then you are allergic to crickets. There are digestive and liver problems associated with eating too many insects too. Also, didn’t God create us with teeth that point to what we should eat? We have those incisors for tearing meat and flat teeth for vegetables, grains and fruits. I know that God gave beaks to certain birds that make them perfect for processing their meal of insects. Birds digestive system is perfect for processing that food where ours are not. Food for thought?
I guess we can go for a picnic; where? at the dump where there are many bugs or to the farm and eat what the chickens don’t eat. I know it’s a ridicules statement, but that’s how stupid and mind numbing these loons are.
Act_10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
Luk 15:23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
Amen to those bible quotes, brother. Amen.
Ever since I heard of Hillary Clinton’s ties to this company Tyson back in her Arkansas days, I have boycotted all their stuff. Nice to know I didn’t fund any research they were doing on how to make insects more palatable at the dinner table. My boycotts last forever and also includes Tylenol, ever since the poisonings in the 1980s. It just might pay to boycott these companies forever because they never seem to clean up their act.
Oh, I didn’t know of Hilary’s connection to Tyson Foods. It figures.
No, no, no it’s not just You will eat ze bugs and be happy! it’s you eat ze worms and be happy too! 🙂
I remember what happed to me tree times in my life (on accredit) bread was the culprit and I was eating and eating and eating (this bread) and I stopped in the middle of eating the bread (it was a store bot doughnut I was ignorant of the “food industry” back then but God showed me the truth) and I saw maggots in it, and it happened to me 2 more time later on in my life with different types of bread (I was traumatized).
I like the quote. Sorry about that, boy that got your attention didn’t it. All ya can do is be thankful and pray that God would sanctify and bless your food when ya eat it, even occasional junk food
Chitin (insect exo-skeletons are carcinogenic, and…they cannot be digested. Thank God, in His mercy, we won’t be here much longer. Hopefully, we’ll bypass this mess of diabolical propaganda and protein!
