Sainsbury thinks of itself as for the more discerning customer---ie the sort of xenophobe who reads and believes all they read in the Daily Mail.

Next thing, it'll be "all food tested safely after being force-fed to eatsern European spongers."

Nah.......they wouldn't be desperate enough to work for Sainsbury's.

I'm intrigued by this 'Welsh, German or Serbo-Croat only' chicken thingy- I mean, don't they know exactly which country their produce comes from?
A bit like saying, "Real Genuine Fresh Freeze-dried Microwaveable Instant Paella, from some vaguely Mediterranean country whose natives speak very quickly while gesticulating a lot, or it could be Greenland or even Zimbabwe, Hell, we don't know, and we don't care all that much either"......

Perhaps Liz's drug-running gulls (see below) could teach the chickens to speak Spanish (or Siberian: see below), and then they could tell the poor benighted Sainsbury's staff where exactly it is they DO hail from.

I wasn't suggesting they would have the choice.

Who?
The chickens, or the migrants?

I find it a bit worrying that these retailers always bang on about how careful they are in sourcing their smelly wares- and then this sort of thing emerges. I really don't want 'UN chicken', thanks all the same.

I saw that doc, too- I only buy free-run (NOT free-range) chuckies anyway, coz the others don't taste of anything (except zinc and other things I'd rather not even think about), and coz of all that de-beaking/claw-removing/
feeding on mashed-up copies of the Sun/general human nastiness etc etc.
It's worth the few bob extra for the sake of a bit of flavour, and salving my conscience.

Speaking as someone who is devoutly ill informed- I'm not an expert:
all I can say is my gut instinct is that the problem is possibly feed related

I can't imagine the asian market using drungs on the birds

Just as mad cow disease came about due to feeding animal remains to animals what else would you conclude
