Dear meathead snoopcester Send a noteboard - 09/11/2009 11:33:36 PM

Agreed. From what I know of the industry over here, they will usually only meet the lowest standard... and attempts to film in average intensive poultry farms wre refused while they claimed the chickens were well looked after.

Most industries will usually only strive to meet the lowest standard. That's why standards are typically set at acceptable levels (gasp i know. Why would the regulators do such a thing as demand acceptable levels.)

PS, veggie-eaters, your precious humane food wasn't farmed in less than lowest standard either. Even your organic companies are only going to strive to meet the lowest standards for organic after that. If doing more than that cuts into their profits, they aren't going to do it.


(I do assume you are refering to me as a veggie-eater and suggesting I eat organic food)
Have a clue about the assumptions you are making before you make them, I won't assume you are stupid then

i was not referring specifically to you. LadyLorraine - 09/11/2009 11:35:01 PM 388 Views
Fair enough, I didn't realise you were making unrelated comments for no clear reason snoopcester - 09/11/2009 11:42:59 PM 384 Views
it was related to what you were saying about standards LadyLorraine - 09/11/2009 11:44:27 PM 363 Views
No, it was not related to what I was saying about chicken raising standards snoopcester - 10/11/2009 10:55:18 AM 369 Views

You should use the quote box thingy on the far right of the Smiley Codes, it would make it easier Danu - 10/11/2009 01:01:02 AM 438 Views

most domesticated animals don't eat what they'd "naturally" eat LadyLorraine - 10/11/2009 01:10:36 PM 406 Views
true. But I think at this point we are getting away from commercially raised and more towards pets. Avendesora - 10/11/2009 02:29:01 PM 467 Views
