What was said, from the article:

Local 4 News in Detroit broadcast portions of the recording. In it, a speaker identified as Bally is heard saying, "We have s**t for f***king poor people. Who buys our s**t? I don’t buy Campbell’s products barely anymore. It’s not healthy now that I know what the f**‘s in it."

He also referenced "bioengineered meat," saying, "I don’t wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3D printer."

The recording, which lasted longer than an hour and 15 minutes, included what Garza said was a "disgusting" rant alleged to be made by Bally about his coworkers: "F***ing Indians don’t know a f***ing thing," and "Like they couldn’t think for their f***ing selves," it said in part.

The bioengineered meat bit is honestly hilarious to me, it's clear this guy has no relation to actual production. 3D printed meat is nowhere near viable for the scale of production that Campbells operates at- it can't keep up with the sheer volume required and it is significantly more expensive than traditional meat production.

Dude's just gone off the deep end with right-wing conspiracy theories, which makes sense given the whole racist tirade and hating the poor.
