Trump vows never to eat Oreos again, citing move to Mexico

1	Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump repeated his claim Tuesday evening that he would stop eating Oreos, citing the cookie maker's decision to close a plant in Chicago and move it to Mexico.
2	Trump's claim is partly true.
3	Oreo's parent company Mondelez International Inc. said last month that it decided to invest $130 million in building four new production lines at a plant in Mexico, which will replace nine older production lines at its Chicago plant.
4	That will mean the number of jobs at the Chicago plant will go from about 1,200 to about 600, said Laurie Guzzinati, a Mondelez representative.
5	But the plant in Chicago will remain open.
6	Guzzinati said the decision to invest in the Mexico plant came after discussions with union representatives for workers at the Chicago plant.
7	She said the company determined that the new production lines would cost $46 million less per year in Mexico than in Chicago, and said labor was "one of many factors."
8	Guzzinati noted that Oreos continue to be made in some U.S. plants, including in New Jersey, Oregon and Virginia.
9	The Mondelez plant in Salinas, Mexico, opened in late 2014, and the four additional production lines are expected to be completed by mid-2016.
10	Two of those lines will make Oreo cookies, Guzzinati said.
