Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Chicken prices are going to go up in Jamaica because of Katrina. 7%.

Eighty percent (of Jamaica's? The article wasn't clear) of grain is shipped from Mississipi ports.

I only have two on mine, since I chased the cats away. I had to. It was necessary for their survival.
