Guest guest Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 It just has to be all-natural, with no additives. No basting or seasoning added. Does not have to be organic, just " nothing added " . Ask someone at your meat department if you're unsure, but the label should tell you. I think it's easier to find chicken and turkey parts with no additives.... whole turkeys are often injected with basting fluids. Patti illegals How can you tell if the chicken and turkey you buy is legal or illegal? I have been reading a lot of posts about illegal poultry and it got me wondering. My son is allergic to beef and doesn't eat pork for religious reasons, which takes us down to only poultry and fish occasionally. I am just wondering if I am buying the wrong stuff.

SCD 2 weeks Whole Foods sells poultry without anti biotic or hormones Here is an item about Maine and controlling the food supply " Maine is the first state to adopt a meat purchasing policy to address the antibiotic resistance crisis in human medicine. The purchasing policy favors meat products produced without the use of antibiotics that are important in human medicine as feed additives for poultry, swine and beef cattle. Growing scientific evidence shows that use of antibiotic feed additives promotes development and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that can be transferred to people via air, food, soil and water, making it harder to treat infections in humans.
