Is B&G Foods Stock a Long-Term Buy?

If You Like Conagra's Dividend But Not Its Business, You'll Love General Mills' Dividend and Its Business

While Conagra offers an attractive 8.9% dividend yield, its weak business fundamentals—including 3% organic sales decline and brand write-downs—make it less appealing than General Mills.
