AFA Foods
Owned by by Ron Burkle’s Yucaipa Companies, AFA Foods produced ground beef products. It was caught up in an outcry over “pink slime” a form of treated beef trimmings used in fast food burgers, that allegedly put AFA Foods in dire straits, causing it to shut down plants and file for bankruptcy. Jack and René reached a settlement of the WARN claims in the Delaware bankruptcy proceedings.
