Chick-fil-A Reverses "No Antibiotics Ever" Policy Amid Supply Shortages
TL;DR
Chick-fil-A is abandoning its "no antibiotics ever" pledge for chicken due to projected supply shortages, shifting to a "no antibiotics important to human medicine" policy. The fast-food chain emphasizes its commitment to high-quality chicken through selectivity, animal wellbeing standards, and evolving its approach. This decision comes amid increasing outbreaks of bird flu at U.S. chicken farms, leading to reduced supplies and higher prices.
