well think of it this way: what is more nutritional a loaf of sunbeam pure white bread or a loaf of bread made with whole grains?

did you know that many commercial chickens are often fed a meal of ground up chicken feathers? Its information like this that makes consumers want to buy organic grain fed chicken. i don’t think its just a lefty thing although they sometimes take it too far by saying no one can raise chickens in a way that makes the chickens unhappy which is irritating.

also the mad cow disease (BSE) was caused by farmers feeding cows the remains of other cows.

I do believe that some foods are healthier than others and organic stores emphasize these choices more than regular stores do. so its a bandwagon i think has some value.

You are refering to feather meal. Cheap protein. Not an issue.
