Campbell’s Soup VP Mocks ‘Poor People’ Who Buy Its Food in Secret Recording (www.newsweek.com)

The complaint, Garza v. Campbell Soup Company, case number 25-018465-CD, was filed on November 20, 2025, by the Runyan Law Group on behalf of plaintiff Robert Garza. The defendants are Campbell Soup Company and supervisor J.D. Aupperle.

The claims—centered on a secretly recorded tirade in which a senior vice president allegedly mocked the company’s products, its customers, and Indian employees—challenge the credibility of Campbell’s public values and highlight broader concerns about how corporations handle discrimination complaints.

He also referenced "bioengineered meat," saying, "I don’t wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3D printer."

Speak for yourself, I think that's super cool and I hope lab grown vat meat will eventually overtake the unnecessary cruelty in our meat supply chain.

I mean, I don't wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a can. Bar to clear for flavor is pretty low versus his brand, so yeah bring on the ethical 3d printed chicken. Can't be worse.

Can't be worse.

Oh no, don't say that...

As someone that was forced to eat canned chicken I promise that it really can get a whole lot worse.

I bet it wasn't from Costco!

I mean, have you seen what they do with the real chickens? 3-D printed it is.

I'm vegetarian and would totally eat printer meat. I don't want to eat a piece of meat that came from horrible commercial farming.

But definitely not the necessary animal cruelty. That's the bit that makes it tasty
