Rose Acre Farms, another egg producer and two trade groups were found liable in the federal price-fixing case.

Corrections and clarifications: John Rust is the former chair of the board of Rose Acre Farms, Inc. His brother and CEO of the company, Marcus Rust, took over the role of board chair in September.

A verdict in a federal lawsuit over price-fixing by some of the country’s largest egg companies has bled into Indiana’s 2024 U.S. Senate race.

    A republican that was sued by Nestle of all companies.

    You know you might be evil when water stealing, coco slave owning, formula poisoning, Nestle is like: Yea, that’s cutting into our profits.

    I fear that this is just the beginning of this mess, not to mention, this is only for the 2011 egg price fixing and not the COVID egg price fixing.

    Which apparently is still totally legal.
