Pilgrim chickening out

It looks like Pilgrim’s Pride, founded by iconic pitchman Bo Pilgrim, is headed for bankruptcy.

Pilgrim’s Pride, the nation’s No. 1 chicken “producer,” has been hammered by the high price of corn. And now, with the credit crunch, even if somebody wanted to buy it, they might not be able to get the money.

So, get ready for a flood of cheap chicken soon.
