Hens were beaten and gassed. Some of the survivors were confined alongside their rotting cagemates for days on end, which exposed them to disease and put them at risk of infection. If you buy eggs from a Kroger store, they might have come from this company.

Badgers Killed for Makeup, Grooming, and Art-Supply Brushes

COVID-19 has shown that exploiting animals for food has disastrous consequences, but exploiting them for any reason is wrong.
