Episode notes

Consumer research shows that consumers in Asia have misconceptions about cage free eggs and need education on why cage free is better for animals.
Cage free organizations focus on ending cages and fighting against animal product consumption, rather than promoting cage free eggs.
The misconceptions in Asia include beliefs that cage free hens run away, become prey, struggle to find food, and die.
