@zephzoid This is one of the most disappointing rabbit holes we have ever seen with our foods.
So Sprouts sells packaged chicken under their own branding.
But guess who their suppliers are?
Tyson Foods.
Perdue.
Aka Big Poultry.
Tyson is literally the largest U.S. meat company, handling more than one in every five pounds of chicken.
Both have long histories of animal‑welfare controversies, worker issues, and product recalls.
You need to buy direct from local/regenerative farms whenever possible.
Even the best, most premium grocery stores this is what happens.
It’s nearly impossible to to escape the Big Poultry supply web.
I firmly believe decentralization to be the path forward.
The creator hooks the viewer by questioning Sprouts Farmers Market's authenticity, uses greenscreen screenshot evidence to reveal their private-label chicken is supplied by Big Poultry conglomerates like Tyson and Perdue, details the negative track record of these suppliers, and concludes by advocating for purchasing pasture-raised chicken directly from local farmers using a specific app.
They call themselves a farmer's market, but you would not believe what they're doing behind the scenes.

Transcript
They call themselves a farmer's market, but you would not believe what they're doing behind the scenes. So Sprouts sells packaged chicken under their own branding, but guess who their suppliers are? From the Sprouts social media themselves, they actually source from big poultry companies like like Purdue and Tyson Foods. And just so you get a sense of how crazy this is, Tyson is the largest US meat company handling more than one in every five pounds of chicken. Both have long histories of animal welfare controversies, worker issues, and product recalls. And I used to buy chicken from Sprouts too, but hearing stories like this over and over again is what ultimately made me switch to pasteurized chicken from producers on Localized. Even at the best, most premium grocery stores, this is what can happen. It's nearly impossible to escape the big poultry supply web.
