Campbell's said Wednesday that a vice president who was embroiled in a public firestorm over a lawsuit and secret recordingwas no longer at the company.
The recording appeared to show the now-former executive, Martin Bally, disparaging customers and colleagues and referring to the company's chicken as "3D-printed."
"The comments were vulgar, offensive and false, and we apologize for the hurt they have caused," the company said in a statement Wednesday. "This behavior does not reflect our values and the culture of our company, and we will not tolerate that kind of language under any circumstances."
The accusations about the former Campbell executive, Martin Bally, were made in a lawsuit filed in Michigan on November 20 by Robert Garza, a former employee. Garza said he was unjustly fired after complaining about Bally's conduct.
Garza said he secretly recorded a conversation where Bally — then Campbell's vice president of information technology — insulted the intelligence of "Indians," belittled customers, and blasted the company's products in a profane rant.
Garza's law firm provided Business Insider with a copy of the recording. It wasn't included as an exhibit in the lawsuit and Business Insider hasn't verified its authenticity.
In a sample quote from the conversation, the person in the recording said Campbell's products were "shyt for fukking poor people" and "unhealthy."
"Even in a can of soup — I look at it, and look at bioengineered meat," the person said. "I don't want to eat a fukking piece of chicken that came from a 3D printer, do you?"
Campbell said in its Wednesday statement that it believed "the voice on the recording is in fact Martin Bally" and said the description of the food is "patently absurd. " The company said Tuesday that Bally was "on leave" before saying Wednesday that he "is no longer employed by the company.:
The remarks caused a firestorm online and caught the eye of Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, who said he would investigate the company because of the state's ban on lab-grown meat.
Bally didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
