Cite? I've butchered many a chicken in my time, and I'd really like
to know *how* someone boils the nasty buggers while they're still
alive and flapping.

Real proof, rather than PETA propaganda? PETA is about as credible a
source as Jack Chick or the Weekly World News.

I guess you've never been to a poultry market to buy fresh chickens.
They string up the chickens' feet and dunk them in huge vats of hot
water...alive...head first. I guess most Americans are used to their
beef, pork, and chicken in friendly looking patties. BTW, I think
PETA should stay away from extremist points of view (renaming signs)
and focus instead on animal cruelty. I got a bunch of "MEAT'S NO
TREAT FOR THOSE YOU EAT" stickers from PETA with chickens on them.
What a waste of funding. Damn if I'll give up steak and fried
chicken. If God didn't want humans to eat cows, pigs, and chickens,
He wouldn't have made them so tasty. P

To be fair, I only skimmed. So I don't know whether or not they
mentionned what they do to the chickens before they boil them alive.

It was an interesting website, and I don't doubt a great deal of the
allegations are true. But 2-month old chickens? Have you ever seen an
eight-week-old chicken? That's hard to believe, unless they have some serious
steroids or chemicals they pump into them to cause fast growth.
I never buy KFC anyway; I think it's disgustingly greasy. But Tyson and other
commercial chicken farms are just as bad as KFC.

Chickens bred for mass-production are fed hormones and are a
fast-growing breed, to begin with. Two months is accurate, as usual
slaughter schedule is 8-10 weeks.
