What's in Your Chicken?

Alright, so here's the thing: The first thing I did was start buying meat, milk, and eggs that were hormone and antibiotic free. Remember though, if it's pre-packaged meat, you MUST read both the front and back. If it doesn't say it's hormone and antibiotic free, it isn't. Now double check to make sure the ingredients just say: chicken, or beef or whatever you hope your buying. If it says "Chicken Raised Without Antibiotics. No Hormones Administered, No Artificial ingredients" you are off to a good start. But double check. Oh look, the back of this package says in teeny tiny print, "all natural chicken broth ingredients: chicken broth, salt, and flavoring." FLAVORING. What are you flavoring it for? Doesn't it already taste like chicken? Why don't you chew on that one 'til tomorrow.
