Snapple and Ben & Jerry's: Protect temp workers from gruesome deaths!!
Inside a sugar plant run by the company that supples Snapple and Ben & Jerry's, Janio Salinas was sent inside the the massive hopper to clean sugar clumps — and was buried alive thanks to the removal of a safety device that "slowed down production."
It's a horrifying story — and it's an everyday danger for temp workers at CSC Sugar plants.
