Whole Foods standards have a lot of vague language i.e. ‘’farmers strive for the very best’’ instead of a firm stance that their meat is violence-free. 



Is that why independent audits, reports & guarantees seem to be missing?


#FoodEthics #AnimalRights #FoodTransparency #AskQuestions #EcoFood

This is a screenshot of the Whole Foods.uk website where they describe their meat standards. Highlighted areas word by word: ''If it doesn't meet our standards, we won't sell it'' ''Our suppliers and award-winning farmers strive for the very best in animal health and well-being.''

Whole Foods mission: ‘’nourish people and the planet’’ & as per Whole Foods site: 

‘’Our suppliers and award-winning farmers strive for the very best in animal health and well-being.’’

''If it doesn’t meet our standards, we won’t sell it.''



#WholeFoods #PlanetFriendly #FoodTransparency #EcoFood

Whole Foods states they have ''rigorous standards'' for fresh meet for beef, pork, lamb, chicken & turkey.



What about frozen, processed or deli meat?

And what about seafood or other types of meat?
