Breast Politics
Food Inc., a documentary about the food industry, unveiled my denial and I have changed my mind. I will now pay more, much more, for a chicken who has had a life.
My friend used to joke, ” What’s the big deal about a free range chicken? You are going to kill it anyway!”
Last weekend, during a mother-daughter viewing of Food Inc, a woman farmer walks into her chicken house which is STUFFED with chickens. She picks out the dead ones, “These chickens are bred to have big breasts. They cannot move and they are standing in feces.”
She lost her contract with because she allowed her chicken jail to be filmed.
WTH The sight of a top heavy chicken, who can’t walk, pumped up with antibiotics, brought out my rebellious side. A chicken breast is not meant to be the size of a whole chicken. I will not buy those chickens.
We have a lot of power. What we ask for in the marketplace we will get.

The thought of going on a diet hasn’t crossed my […]
- How Old is Your Inner Rebel?When I was the size of the little girl in the photo, my dad tried to get me to hand over my chewing gum before I went to sleep. I refused. His argument that I was going to wake up with gum in my hair was reasonable. I swallowed MY GUM. I feel the same […]
- Get On Your Happy PantiesGet On Your Happy Panties I was doing EFT with a client and the words, “ Monday through Friday pants” came out of the mouth. I was thinking of the ubiquitous underwear marked with the days of the week; my client was thinking of the Monday through Friday nine to five life. The magical shift […]
‘Wonder what they do with the dead ones … I shudder to think … I, too back teh chick with a life theme … while I still eat a little meat for the proteins I seem to need, I do not think that torture should be allowed to be part of the harvesting process. Imagine the hormones and other thought-creations that must be in the tormented beast …not on MY menu of condiments for sure!
Gives new meaning to the Chicken Little story!… Dawn
