An Undercover Investigation Found Something Disturbing About Costco's Egg Supply. This Is Shocking!
By Dreamer
The Humane Society of the United States were suspicious about retail giant Costco's supply of eggs, so they launched an undercover investigation to see what conditions these chickens were being kept in. What they found was truly appalling.
The chickens were packed in tiny wire cages, with each animal occupying a space roughly the same size as an iPad. The conditions are the opposite of what Costco claims them to be. In 2008, they promised to use free range chickens exclusively for their egg supply - eight years later and Costco looks to be nowhere close to fulfilling that promise.
The video shows exactly what was found at the facility of one of Costco's egg suppliers, and contains images of animal abuse and even death. Please be advised that it is tough to watch and should be viewed with discretion. If you want to make sure to not support these types of conditions, the Humane Society has provided a handy resource for you to decipher just what you're buying at the store.
