I've stopped eating beef and I've reduced my intake of pork, but I still eat plenty of poultry and fish. And I'm aware of how badly many chickens and turkeys are treated. I'm aware of how, because they're forced to live in their own filth, they're pumped full of antibiotics. They're surrounded by other dead birds. It's hell, I would imagine. This is why I ALWAYS buy free range, and I always buy certified organic. They're outside and they get decent food. This doesn't speak to the manner of death, which I don't like, but short of doing months of research or driving directly to a farm, it may be the best I can do for now.
I'm not familiar with the circumstances of the fish, though. I should probably do more research.
