Company records suggest relatively few workers are injured each year as they kill, cut and package millions of chickens and turkeys.But an Observer investigation shows the N.C. poultry giant has masked the extent of injuries behind its plant wall

This is terrifying. I don't see the difference between the Chicken (farm factories), and workers that process them (shoulders-to-shoulders) cooking ("chiefs" deeping indefinitely meat in oil) and the last consumer, who lines up for the mac nuggets.
In the end and all the way, we are all mimeting the chicken's way of living at the first place.
Start to live as a human being at the end of the chain, and it will reflect all the way up!
