This is the best summary I could come up with:

Capitalism.

The original article contains 3,025 words. This is a reduction of 99.97%. I am not a bot.

Not limited to chicken there. Even companies who still have a pledge and marketing on not using antibiotics for beef have been found to use antibiotics

Some beef ‘raised without antibiotics’ tests positive for antibiotics in study

I'm not sure if I am against using antibiotics at all, but claiming to not use it and using it is a dirty play. Though it shouldn't surprise me, probably

Note, they are not just using it on sick creatures. They use it on everyone. This is a major source of antibiotic resistance as it accounts for 73% of the entire global use of antibiotics

Yes, I know that they use it too generously :(
