Fast food chains and some grocery stores have, in part, supported the demand for larger breast meat, but The New York Times reports that some companies are demanding meat from slow-growth chickens, “contending that giving birds more time to grow before slaughter will give them a healthier, happier life – and produce better-tasting meat.”
‘I’ll go vegan’
Meanwhile, online users are expressing their disgust over the noodled chicken.
One cyber fan asks: “It looks like worms ! What are they feeding us?”
“I got some like that a while ago. It looked like that on the bottom. Things haven’t looked right like when we’re young. A lot fresher,” shares a second.
Other netizens suggested shopping elsewhere: “You’ll get humanely raised and better quality chicken from a local butcher or co-op. I recommend going there instead for your meat.”
And some were inspired to become vegetarians.
“I’ll go vegan!! Too much lab food around,” writes one while another adds: “This is why we are thinking about going pescatarian.”
It really is unfortunate that factory farming is causing these poor creatures so much pain in their short lives.
