1) Short thread - Many of the recent industrial food processing problems, fires, explosions, etc, are more than likely caused by the extreme over capacity situation they were in for the past 2 years, and a lack of necessary down-time maintenance.
2) There were warnings of this previously. The overcapacity was caused by the shutting down of half the food delivery system (restaurants, hospitality etc), which put extreme pressure on the processed foods (grocery) side of the supply chain.
3) Many food mfrs and processors ended up adding production time to keep up with extreme shifts in the demand for retail stores. This stresses the facility and equipment and without increased maintenance, failures happen. That's my thought on the issue. /end
