Seems contrary to their supposed "states rights" philosophy.

Yeah, that's kinda where I am. States (for now) have the right to regulate what's for sale on their shelves.

This is a case where "the customer is always right" applies. CA and others have passed legislation for what kind of pork they will buy. IA is not compelled by those laws to fill those orders and doesn't have to rebuild out a new supply chain.

They may need to retool some of it if they want to capture these clear market demands, but again... nobody is compelling them.
