Everything you write is true, but also so negative. Where I live I have absolutely no access to anything healthy, any organic farmers or healthy raised livestock. Sure I could order some meat online that claims to be free of hormones, antibiotics, a grass fed, etc. but I have no way to verify it nor could I afford it if I did. $40/lb for meat? Raw milk? Absolutely non-existent anywhere near me. So tell me, should I just starve? $10 tomatoes at the pitiful one morning a week farmers market?

Rather than just go on about how bad everything is why can’t you include solutions? I’m in my 70’s. Can’t just up and move to the country and start a farm. As much as I would love to do that I couldn’t afford it in today’s economy. Where I live eggs are still about $8/dozen. And now you’re telling me how bad they are as well. So how about a solution for the older population on a fixed income?

Karen, thank you so much for this post. I was aware of many of the pitfalls in sourcing healthy chicken, but you opened my eyes to more.
