Hi folks,
Like all of you, I want to be as sure as I can that the quality of food I give my little girl, Lex, is as good as I can get.
I sent an e-mail message to a local grocery store chain in my area (that is very well respected for carrying quality foods), and asked them if they could tell me where they obtain their chicken, turkey, beef, etc. from.
Here's their reply:
"Or Beef and Pork and Poultry are sourced from the United States solely. Our Beef and Pork are grown all over the country in areas with suitable conditions and are processed in the midwest and California. Our poultry is also grown in many different parts of the country. Our Foster Farms Chicken as well as our Coastal Range Organics Chicken is grown in California locally Only. Our everyday Chicken (our value line) is processed in the mid west and packed in
California."
Can someone offer some advice on what additional information I might want to ask them about theirs meats before I buy them and feed my little girl (their response was a little ambiguous for my taste...no pun intended
)??? For example, I might want to ask if their livestock is fed anything icky like steroids or stuff like that, wouldn't I???
I have the good forture of having a family member, my Step-Son, who is a pretty "big-wheel" with this company, so anything they tell me I would be able to CONFIRM (do I sound skeptical that they might "blow smoke" at me???
)
Comments? Suggestions?
Thank you,
Craig
