Tyson moving to antibiotic-free chicken

Tyson Foods, one of the nations largest producers of chicken and poultry, has announced that they will no longer be using antibiotics in chickens intended for sale in supermarkets. And along with this shift in production will come a $70 million dollar advertising campaign to promote the new approach. Antibiotic-free chicken will be available in stores as soon as later this week and will be easily recognizable due to special packaging. Expect to pay a little more, however, for the luxury and peace of mind of no antibiotics. How much? We'll have to wait and see this week.
