1st Poultry To Carry Certified Humane Seal & Use Superior Water Process
Dear Food Expert: There has probably never been more confusion and controversy in the food business - including all the current news about the inhumane treatment of chickens.
I am writing to give you the details of two important "Firsts" about our client,
Murray's Chickens:
Murray's Chickens First to Earn Certified Humane Seal and Utilize Superior,
Environmentally Safer Water Process
America's most progressive poultry processor produces chickens for national markets
SOUTH FALLSBURG, New York, August 20, 2004 - For 49 years, Murray Bresky has been passionate about three things his family, his chickens and his customers. So he's fanatical about raising chickens that are the most delicious, healthy and safe to buy.
Murray's Chickens are excellent enough to be on the menu at some of the best watering
holes in America, like Ouest and The Four Seasons. They're healthy, because they're
Grown As Nature intended, with a 100% vegetable diet, No additives, No pesticides,
No antibiotics, No growth drugs and USDA Approved Sustainably Raised, from egg to table.
Not coincidentally, Murray is the leader in implementing humane and safe and practices. Murray's Chickens are never caged; food and water flow freely and the chickens lounge around as they please.
Now Murray's is the first poultry processor in America to earn the Certified Humane Seal, from Humane Farm Animal Care, for our humane growing and processing practices. Murray's was awarded the certification following a rigorous on-site inspection by HFAC veterinarians and animal scientists. HFAC guidelines stipulate animals must receive a nutritious diet, free from antibiotics or hormones and must have adequate shelter, resting areas and space sufficient to support natural behavior. Murray's is one of only 16 companies certified to use the Certified Humane Seal, which will appear on all packaging as soon as possible: www.certifiedhumane.com
Murray's is also the first poultry processor in America to utilize Electric Aquagenics Unlimited's Electrolyzed Oxidative Water (EAU) technology to disinfect, sanitize and
clean surfaces and foods, without the chlorine toxicity to the consumer and the
environment. EAU fluids interact in a superior way with the pathogens that can be
present in poultry processing, and are almost 100% effective in killing e-coli and
Salmonella. The EAU process has also been shown to improve shelf life up to 5 to 7 days.
As leaders in this industry, we are constantly striving for healthier and safer poultry. The Certified Humane Seal and the installation of new EAU Water technology are two more important steps for our industry, says Steve Gold, Murray's Chickens VP, Sales and Marketing.

Fresh Antibiotic-Free Chicken Sausage, Antibiotic-Free Ground Chicken, All Natural Chicken Barbeque Sauce, from America's most progressive poultry processor, are available at specialty, health and natural food stores, supermarkets, nationwide; will be available online soon, at: www.murrayschicken.com.
