We are proud to say that 100% of the beef and soy we purchase for the U.S. market is sourced from the United States." "We are proud to say that 100% of the beef and soy we purchase is from the United States [...] U.S.-sourced beef and soy are unlikely to trigger the deforestation and human rights concerns of the internationally-sourced products cited as a concern in the proxy resolution."
