“In 2004, a jury awarded 32-year-old Eric Peoples, a worker at the Gilster-Mary Lee plant in Jasper, Mo., $20 million for lung damage he sustained during the manufacturing process of buttered popcorn. At the time, 29 other workers had cases pending.”

#1 Not advertising. Advertising is what you see before you enter the building. Some stores don’t even have shelf labels.
