Charts & Figures |
| Epicurus Institute Analysis |
| ConAgra is an industry leader in food production in the U.S., providing the bulk of corn and potato based products among other food basics. However, it is equally a leading proponent in the use of high-fructose corn syrup, which is attributed as a leading cause of obesity and Diabetes. Many of their foods are being avoided by a population increasingly aware of the need for healthier foods. Nevertheless, the company sells many of the basic comfort foods accepted as standard cuisines throughout much of the world. Thus, we recommend buying and holding ConAgra. |
