Chickens bred for meat are fattened up to the size of a 25 stone 2yr old child, and then killed at 6 weeks. Free range is a marketing term to make people feel better about their choices, yet if they saw what it means (60,000 in a packed barn with so much ammonia they are covered in burns and lose feathers), broken legs due to the weight, then 6000 in a truck sent to slaughter terrified and covered in faeces. There is NO way to 'ethically' use animals to eat, wear, entertain or test on, NONE. They also bleach the animals to get rid of bacteria, and pump them with antibiotics that we then consume. Please wake up everyone and at least watch Land of Hope & Glory or Earthlings, or go to a save (save movement on fb), even look at the photos, pls'Just because its on the internet don't believe it 100%'.

FlameCloud said:They are however, incredibly tasty.
One of celeb chefs or a food show cooked a chicken for a group of people. This chicken had roamed a farmyard fairly freely and
fed good food with very little added to the food etc. They also cooked the cheap chicken that gets pumped with water etc.
Most guests said the cheap chicken had the right taste they said the other chicken tasted strange. Its been pumped with
god knows what for so long that its what we have become used to.

The food industry have been screwing us for years not only with chickens, Just doing a little online research will amaze you look up a documentary called "the poison squad" it's about the American food industry and is fascinating and you can bet your life what they do we do maybe on a smaller scale but all the same dodgy practices."Imagination is more Important than knowledge"0

If people want to eat dead animals, sadly it means animals are going to be killed for that purpose.
