There are also thirty staff members who work in the office and in various other support positions. All the employees except the support staff work twelve-hour shifts.

This industrial food chain is largely based on corn, whether it is eaten directly, fed to livestock, or processed into chemicals such as glucose and ethanol. Pollan discusses how the humble corn plant came to dominate the American diet through a combination of biological, cultural, and political factors.

This variance can be due to the machine that separates and collects the candy that will be deposited into each bag and by the inspections of each bag for defects. MnM Candy Report M and M candies have been around for a long time, almost a century now. Today, almost 1 billion M and M candies are made in a day. According to Monte Brooks, employee of Mars Company,” there are 25% orange, 25% blue and 12.5% of brown, red, yellow and green colors per each bag”. (Food Network, n.d.) In this report, there are statistical analyses used to compare the percentages listed above and the percentages taken from samples.
