The real cost of cheap food is disturbing, these animals live in horrendous conditions, thankfully their lives are short.

Our large food chains know all this, they know full well that corners will be cut or the bounds of legality stretched by their suppliers in order to keep the “deal” Their get out clause is that they drive prices down in the name of the customer, it’s what we want.

I want my £2 chicken and I think it can be had without resorting to cruelty, some fat cats profit margin may have to take a hit, the onus is on the big name stores to sort it out. The guilt is theirs not the everyday shopper.

If I can’t have my £2 chicken, I would give my respect to the food chain that actually had the gumption to say we cannot supply it at that price, it’s against our policy to serve animals reared in this price range.
