>Also, realistically and in comparison to other companies, you really have to stretch to call them public enemy one. There is really no danger of Cargill impacting your life like one of the big tech companies. There are other strong players in everyone of their markets.

You can make the same argument for monsanto, but they get a lot of public flak.

Monsanto is a bit more "in your face" than Cargill. In fact, Cargill lost a seed lawsuit that had some deep effects. How they write about it is interesting https://www.cargill.com/history-story/en/SEED-SALE-AND-INTEG...

Except Cargill now owns what used to be Monsanto.
