In recent years, many supermarkets have incorporated ‘bio’ or ecological sections among their products for those consumers who want quality raw materials that respect the breeding of the animals we consume, and a great example is eggs.
In this case, packaging has been widely spread that claims that certain eggs have been taken from free-range hens and that they have a higher price than the usual ones because greater care and time is supposedly given to the animals to lay them.
The video in question makes an accurate reflection on how we buy today and to what extent this supposed animal freedom is sold to us as an added value that we are willing to pay.
“One of the strangest things in the modern society we live in today is standing in the egg aisle and having to decide what level of chicken happiness you can afford,” reflects the video’s author.
In the comments they have joked with this curious expression: “I can afford chickens in semi-freedom but stressed. Well, almost,” states the title of the video.
On the other hand, there are also even more profound comments: “If a hen is unhappy, she will not care so much that her eggs are taken away, because she will prefer that her chicks not know such a suffering life, while if she is happy she will experience it as a tragedy.” .
