Buy eggs in Australia, you must have noticed that in the egg packaging box, there is usually such a line of words: Free Range
Free Range, refers to "free feeding." The so-called "Free Range Egg", that is, we usually call "loose eggs."
In contrast, the so-called "captivity". Captivity refers to keeping the chickens in a very small cage and feeding them constantly. It is possible that these chickens have not left the cage for half a step except when they are born and slaughtered!
The meat is generally stronger, the meat structure and nutrition ratio are more reasonable than those raised in cages, so the eggs produced by captive chickens are also more expensive than those grown up in cages, and the meat is generally stronger and the meat structure and nutrition ratio are more reasonable than those grown up in cages.
However, in a recent survey, the Royal Society for the Protection of Animals (RSPCA) discovered a bug.
Although the supermarket clearly marks the Cage/Free Range Eggs on the egg box, when the egg is processed into a semi-finished product, it becomes a uniform "Egg".
And the Turks and Australians, on this point, seem to be very picky.
According to the RSPCA study, 80% of Australians want to see the end of captivity, while 65% refuse to eat eggs in captivity.
The life of the Tuao people is really an eye-opener!
A mother in Canberra, Odette Sutch, is one of these delicate native Australians.
She argues that there should be only "scattered eggs" on the shelves, which is "doing the right thing." And when she heard that many of the foods she was buying now might contain "eggs in captivity", she looked rather surprised.
"it's a very sensible decision to go up and down the shelves and keep eggs in captivity," she said. We can spend a little more money on doing the right thing. When I was shopping before, I had no idea. "
At the same time, Sutch also said that although he is very busy, but will try to buy their own eggs to make cakes and biscuits.
Which companies use "go-to-ground eggs"?
So far, a number of companies have confirmed that they have never used any "eggs in captivity," and, to prove it, they have signed a "ground egg agreement" together.
These companies include The Coffee Club, The Cheesecake Shop, Arnott's, Grill'd burgers, Guzman and Gomez, IKEA (Ikea (Ikea) and Hungry Jacks (Burger King (Burger King).
Betty Crocker, Tip Top Bakery (), Nestle (Nestl é) and Ben & Jerrys (Nestl é) are also working on "ground-walking eggs", promising to stop using "eggs in captivity" between 2020 and 2025.
RSPCA humanity is Ping Manager Hope Bertram said this is the first time Australia has so many companies to participate in such an event. Consumer buying has changed dramatically over the past five years, with'go-to-ground eggs' now taking most of the supermarket's market share.
"however, more than 10 million hens still have to spend their lives in a ragged cage with only one ipad."
Australia's major supermarkets, Aldi and Woolworth, are also working to achieve the goal of cage-free. The two supermarkets have promised to overhaul their supply chains by 2025, while Coles, has promised to be fully caged-free by 2023.
While the supermarkets promised to replace their brands entirely with bulk farming, they said they would not remove all caged eggs on the shelves until each brand signed a promise to use "loose eggs".
Who's the next target?
After processing food companies and supermarkets, RSPCA turned to the main supplier of Australian food.
These suppliers to the Australian food market, supermarket supply chain, as well as hospitals, government, stadiums and schools offer products.
So far, Compass and Sodexo, the big three food suppliers, have compromised to RSPCA, while the rest of Spotless has yet to respond.
Is it possible for China to implement full-scale retail maintenance?
The answer is absolutely impossible!
Loose breeding, to say nothing, is the feelings of the rich.
Tuao people are free, will care about how the chicken live, how about the nutrition of eggs. And in China, there are countless poor people who have to live on cheap food. The simple mechanization of chicken farming in captivity greatly reduces the cost of egg production and allows the poor to eat eggs unburdensome. If you are a person who often goes to the supermarket to buy eggs, you should know that the price difference between loose eggs and eggs in captivity is very big, and some of them are even more than double the price of eggs in captivity.
Therefore, as a poor person, is absolutely not going to choose more expensive ground eggs! That's why it's impossible for China to look at Tu'ao.
