“The standards say chickens must spend most of their day with enough space to lie down, stand up, turn around and fully extend their limbs.”
Wow, that is a small amount of decency to ask for. Who would be against this? What a nation we’ve become.
Having said that, I am against Net Neutrality!
Too bad they would even have to pass a law like that. My dad had a bunch of chickens and we sold the eggs when I was a kid, and we would never had thought about treating them inhumane.
The whole food chain thing is a very uncomfortable subject. We have embraced “efficiency” at the cost of humanity or if you prefer common decency to our food animals.
Clawing it back is going to cost$$$ and hurt poorer people much more than wealthier ones. As our ship rights itself we will have room to re-examine many of the standard processes and may be able to improve our standard.
