This is exactly why I got out of food processing after a decade of realizing I wasn't going to make a difference from within the industry. In that time, I worked for 3 different companies that supplied to all the household names (like this one).
If I could only tell you what they do to your food...you'd literally have to think twice before grabbing just anything off a grocery store shelf. Thankfully, now I get to use all the knowledge I gained on the inside to help people on the outside make better food choices.
Ignorance isn't bliss. The more you know, the better choices you can make. š
šØ A senior Campbell Soup Company executive has been exposed in a secret recording brutally admitting that the companyās food is garbage, so unhealthy that he himself refuses to eat it, and that he wants nothing to do with the bioengineered and lab-grown meat the industry is pushing.
For years, Campbellās has been packed with bioengineered toxic ingredientsāgenetically modified corn, soy, canola, sugar beets, and moreāthat carry serious long-term health risks including organ damage, hormone disruption, allergenicity, and antibiotic resistance.
Martin Bally, Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer, let the mask slip during a 2024 lunch with a new employee:
āWe have s**t for f***ing poor people. Who buys our s**t? I donāt buy Campbellās products barely anymore. Itās not healthy now that I know what the f**kās in it.ā
He then drew a hard line against the very innovations appearing on grocery shelves, declaring:
āI donāt wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3D printer.ā
In other words, the man whose paycheck depends on Campbellās success privately views the iconic soups and meals as unhealthy slop peddled to those who canāt afford better, and heās repulsed by the bioengineered and fake-meat ingredients the industry (and possibly Campbellās own pipeline) is embracing.
The recording, made public through a wrongful-termination lawsuit filed November 20, 2025, by former employee Robert Garza, has turned a decades-old symbol of comfort food into a national scandal.
Garza, a brand-new hire who had been on the job only a few weeks, secretly recorded the hour-long tirade after it quickly turned hostile and offensive.
Deeply disturbed by what he heard, he formally reported the incident to HR in January 2025, citing a hostile work environment and discriminatory language.
Instead of an investigation into Bally, Garza was terminated just weeks later.
He believes the firing was direct retaliation for speaking up.
Only after his termination did Garza make the recording public, attaching it to a wrongful-termination lawsuit filed on November 20, 2025, against Campbell Soup Company.
The lawsuit accuses the company of illegally retaliating against a whistleblower who tried to do the right thing internally first.
Campbellās issued a statement saying the comments are āunacceptableā if accurate and do not reflect company values, while confirming an investigation. Bally remains in his role.
For millions of families who still reach for that red-and-white can, the message from inside the company is now crystal clear: even the executives think itās trash.
