Smithfield Foods
Hello everyone, I'm a representative of Smithfield Foods and would like to request an update this article. The areas on governance and some of the financial numbers are very out of date. Our most recent SEC filing has verified and updated information regarding our financial figures and governance. Here is the link: http://files.shareholder.com/downloads/SFD/1972273717x0xS91388-16-64/91388/filing.pdf. If you anyone wants me to call out specifics I would be more than happy to or I understand if you would like to pull the information out yourself. I am respectful of Wikipedia's guidelines concerning conflict of interest and have made no edits myself but wanted to encourage others to make this article accurate.

 * Quality Assurance International
 * James Beard Foundation -- could you please add the organization's mission, on the about page, and update the initial description more closely match the language on the about page (including mentions of Women's Leadership and Impact programs)? Under publications, could you please update JBF Events to "Monthly," remove JBF Notes (no longer in print), and change the "Delights and Prejudices" to "James Beard Foundation Stories"? Thanks!
