Chicken Safety

A new study by Consumer Reports has found that two out of three whole broiler chickens are contaminated with illness-inducing bacteria, while certain types of organic chicken posed the lowest. The research suggests that current and safety and hygiene practices amoung poultry producers and handlers are inadequate and that consumers need to be watchful at both the grocery store and at home to cook chicken well and prevent cross-contamination of counter tops, hands and other foods.

These companies need to make sure they take care to protect the consumers and handle these chickens with care and prevent diseases. It is is a moral obligation for these companies to make sure they do whatever necessary to prevent diseases.
