It’s all down to greed and money! Profit. I have always bought free range eggs and chicken (if the price is right). Its a catch 20 situation, if the cost was less more consumers like myself would choose organic. But I guess that’s a long way off if we all don’t shop green in order to reduce the cost.

Following a recent article in the Sun Herald in Sydney, I reckon there will be more organic eggs sold. Woolworths Organic came out tops for quality and freshness. All good for the cause!

The organic chickens are still slaughtered. So even if they are treated more humanely while they are alive the fact remains that they are still being raised by humans for no other purpose than their ultimate untimely death. Human beings do not need much protein. Everything we do need can be obtained from plant sources.

Try eating beans, lentils and tofu. You’ll feel better….
