yup. We are #1 at food and its not even close. They cant get it elsewhere.

Also, Thomas Cook went tits up. Why? They couldnt get more money from their Chinese owners. Whats a big problem in China right now that no one is talking about? Liquidity.

Need to do some more digging here but I find it curious they couldnt get that deal to work out.

The Chinese "owners" (one Chinese company owned 7% of Cook's stock) offered to loan Cook 450 million UK pounds but Cook's consortium of banks, including the Royal Bank of Scotland, blocked it.
