taking out the maker of generic hash browns is the straw that broke the camels back?
If you are another generic hash brown maker, trying to move into 'big potatoes'. Or just some guy who got pissed at the foreman one day...
It won't destroy America, but I have noticed how the disruption of a supplier's supply and recall can affect businesses and people far afield.
This one made a mess of things out this way:

Some suppliers still aren't stocking product, and I have had two generations of coupons go out of date waiting, and will likely see a third go dead before the product reappears on the shelves. Two months later, people are using other products or quitting, and that will affect the company's bottom line.
Golf balls don't just grow in potato patches. I have to buy the ones my granddaughter likes to pick off with the Sig.
