Remember the famous American campaign of many years ago for Perdue Chickens... "It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken?" It won a ton of awards and if you dig out all those awards annuals you've got down in the garden shed covered in compost, you'll come across it.
Well the news just out today from the Tyson chicken company that it will no longer use antibiotics when it raises the little cluckers, might encourage some smart assed ad guys to come up with some pretty provocative advertising... But no, we're going to get a $70 million ad campaign aimed at mothers, featuring the tagline “Thank you.”
Wow, that'll get em fighting at the check out lines to be the first on the block with a drug free chicken for dinner. It'll also make all those people who patronize places like Kentucky Fried Chicken feel good that their deep fried in axle grease, soaked in sodium baths 'til they have the consistency of well boiled rag, chicken bits, are no longer injected up the arse with antibiotics, steroids and various other enemas. On that note, I'll say "Thank You!"
