Pastured Eggs Not the Same As Conventional

Studies have shown that not only are the eggs produced in a more humane environment, they are healthier.  Duh!!  If you look at grass vs. feed, grass looks healthier.  Chickens, by the way, are NOT vegetarians even though a large chicken producer (meat) would like you to think (since they advertise that their chickens are feed an all vegetarian diet).  What they mean is that they aren't feeding slaughterhouse "leftovers" to the chickens- you know what is left after the rest is sent to the grocery stores or what wasn't healthy enough to make it to the grocery stores).  Anyways, eating grass and bugs along with other plant material is obviously a more natural and nutritious diet.  Check out this article on Mother Earth News:
