The large QC Poultry processing plant in Montebello, just east of East Los Angeles, caught fire. The cause of the blaze is unknown. Firefighters responded as heavy smoke billowed from the roof.
Although this incident by itself does not seem terribly unusual or alarming, it is the latest in a long series of mystery fires taking out America’s food supply chain.
Some speculate that these fires are not coincidental, but a coordinated sabotage effort.

Here is our original story June 1st:
A massive fire took place last weekend at one of the nation’s largest egg producers, destroying a barn and killing over 200,000 chickens.
This is the latest in a string of mysterious barn fires in recent months.
The barn, located on Forsman Farm in Minnesota, had tens of thousands of chickens. Forsman provides more than three million eggs to large national retail chains.
Officials estimate at least 200,000 chickens were killed in the massive blaze. The County Sheriff’s Office says that the fire was likely “accidental”.
“Overnight, a fire destroyed one of our barns at our Howard Lake farm…Unfortunately, chickens were lost because of the fire. We are evaluating the extent of the damage – which appears to be confined to a single structure – as well as investigating the cause of the fire,” a Forsman Farms representative said.
This is the latest food production facility to mysteriously go up in flames, at a time when a fertilizer and food shortage are taking place, in addition to record inflation.
Over the past five months, at least 16 major blazes have occurred at food industry facilities. All have been labeled “accidental” or “inconclusive”.
A simple Google search for “recent barn fires” brings up a long list of mystery fires at agricultural facilities, which appear to be quite a strange coincidence.
It’s not a coincidence this is all deliberate in an attempt to sabotage the food systems in place
When you create shortages, inflation, and record high food prices, people will no longer be able to afford food and then the government will try to control the food market
Whoever controls the food controls the people
Because it’s not a coincidence.. this is a planned take down.
Continuing the deliberate destruction of USA

Any data available for previous years, to compare to this year?
I believe they are done by eco terrorists.
You can blame Biden and his cronies like Obama, Gates and Soros. They are depopulaters and their goal is to kill off 50% of the world’s population though vaccination and famine. This is no longer a conspiracy theory but a conspiracy. Wake up people!
Mysterious indeed, until one considers the agenda of ‘Big Pharma’, and ‘Big Agra’ and the condemnation of so much poultry recently too, implying the false determination of bird viruses through use of the PCR test. The c19 virus has never actually been isolated – unless one considers computer software such as the CRISPR system to be definitive, based on algorithms and projected virus reality. (This aside from the fact that isolation procedures are never truly isolated, in that other possibly tainted substances have always been used as mediums and filtering steps in these processes.)
The current administration is set on AMA and similar societies and agencies narrative of ‘soy boy’ culture and the fallacious research advocating vegetable oils and greater use of non-animal fats in nutrition. Other research however, has quite definitively shown the importance of animal fats and proteins as well as of organic and pesticide-free foods. Unfortunately, these agencies are considered ‘bought’ by many, and have sold their loyalties to the ‘shelf life’ magicians and their cronies, where these principles mean very little.
PETA terrorists
Let’s be clear, this article points out some statistics regarding 95 fires over the past year and a half.
There is no historical data provided for context using similar criteria.
I actually had to look up what the Gateway Pundit is and per wikipedia it is a “far-right fake news website.”
But put aside that characterization of what the Gateway Pundit is, maybe a person with a working brain should then expend the effort to make sense of this data before repeating it….
So let’s consider a few statistics regarding fires in the US…
Per the NFPA an average of 358,500 homes experience a structural fire each year.
There are an annual 70,072 wildfires per year.
So just taking these two easily found statistics and seeing numbers of fires in the tens to hundreds of thousands per year in the US and you put out an article about 95 fires affecting barns over one and a half years… call me skeptical about what you are trying to sell here.
Seems like ever since various articles form Yaakov M started appearing on VIN, VIN has decidedly taken an extreme political slant that involves looking for conspiracy in everything and everywhere.
VIN is really pushing it here and apparently decided they just want to be a propaganda outlet rather than an outlet that posts news of interest to Orthodox Jews.
Seeing this article, I remembered a boy at age of around 15 who I went to school with in upstate New York who boasted that set barn fires for fun. From what I heard years later he was never caught and unbelievably became a State Trooper.
Sadly, there is a MAGA conspiracy theory that JEWS are setting these fires because we own all the food manufacturing and then we will collect insurance and plus, prices will rise. Tucker Carlson even mentioned it about 3 weeks ago.
How do yo make a flood?
Russia, China? Threre in involved.
PETA terrorists
Who is John Galt?
I don’t know about all the shtusim conspiracies that you guys are advancing.
Daas Torah is clear:
1. It’s because of loshon horo.
2. It’s because of sheitels.
3. It’s because of talking in shul.
4. It’s because of a lack of kovod daas Torah.
Correct these issues and the chickens will prosper!
The fact that there are 35 posted comments on this article is revealing that the original purpose and goal of a site dedicated to frum viewers is no longer applicable
While there may be some there, there, quoting “The Gateway Pundit” is probably not the greatest of sources
I’m surprised that there are so many crazing conspiracy theorists commenting. Some are incomprehensible and that one about PETA being behind in incineration of hundreds of thousands of animals takes the cake.
PETA has been vocal about the conditions of these animals and the deaths from the fires.
Who do the conspiracy theorists think is behind the fires?
God has his master plan your comments are fake
What a conspiracy theory. Barn fires are commonplace in northern states due to electrical fires caused by faulty heating units and the combustible hay, feed, and chicken manure. The closest fire department, mostly volunteer may be 20 or more miles from the farm. Statistics nationwide are hard to come by but there were 87 major barn fires in 2020 killing many thousands of chicken and other animals.
