I was trying to look into that today myself, starting specifically with stuff that I buy regularly at the grocery store (so I can stop buying it). They make it very difficult to figure out, too. The actual label could say made in USA or whatever but that does not disclose ownership of the company. If I make any decent progress I will share, but the hour or so I spent was mostly fruitless. The ones I know for sure that I will no longer be buying:
tyson foods: also includes jimmy dean, ballpark, hillshire farm, sara lee, aidells, state fair
smithfield foods: also includes eckrich, nathans, farmland, armour, gwaltney, cracker barrel, curlys
I am going to force myself to start paying a lot more attention to what I buy. Might be painful at first but I am willing to pay more to keep the money in the U.S. instead of funding the CCP.

Almost all of them, the list of companies without affiliation are much smaller.
