Consumers have driven the market into a race to the bottom. There is effectively no way for the consumer to really know about the comparative difference in living conditions between two packs of meat. There is really no way at all to know the provenance of chicken from a restaurant. Expecting consumers to either do this research or not eat chicken at all is completely unrealistic. If we want to fix this problem it will have to be through regulation. A start would be nasty labeling on unethically generated foods, like the surgeon general’s warning on cigarettes.
