食品安全风险和动物残忍
令人震惊的调查 : 关于牛奶国际肮脏且潜在食品安全风险的鸡蛋供应链
您在Giant、Cold Storage或Jasons Food Hall购物吗？ 如果是，您可能要再想一想。 一项令人震惊的调查关于拥有这三间公司的牛奶国际想要隐瞒该公司持续贩售来自肮脏、残忍且高食品风险的笼饲鸡蛋给消费者。
马来西亚针对多家乳制场的鸡蛋供应商进行一系列的调查，发现粪便和污垢沾满鸡蛋的笼子栏，粪便堆积在离鸡蛋和母鸡本身仅几英寸远的地方，母鸡几乎一生都挤在很小的笼子里，非常残忍，在世界上许多国家都是非法的，且死去的母鸡尸体在下蛋供人食用的母鸡旁边被分解。
尽管数十家具领导性的食品公司已承诺在马来西亚仅使用放养鸡蛋，包括特易购、Subway和星巴克等，却没有牛奶国际，它继续贩售肮脏残忍的笼饲鸡蛋给马来西亚消费者。
是时候让牛奶国际停止让消费者的安全受到威胁，且不再支持严重虐待动物的方式。是牛奶国际赶上同行，并承诺最迟于2025年前在马来西亚仅贩售放养鸡蛋。
请在请愿书上签名！
牛奶国际：我们不再去您那购物，包括Giant、Cold Storage或Jasons Food Hall，直到您赶上其他具领导性的食品公司，并承诺停止在马来西亚贩售肮脏、残忍的笼饲鸡蛋，现在是牛奶国际使用100％放养鸡蛋的时候！
笼饲鸡蛋的食物安全风险
数十份食品安全科学研究一致发现笼饲蛋场感染沙门氏菌明显较高。欧洲食品安全局（European Food Safety Authority）在针对此议题进行有史以来最大规模的研究，分析来自5000座牧场的资料，发现笼饲农场感染沙门氏菌的可能性比起放养农场高出25倍。 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
将母鸡限制在笼子中会增加食品安全风险的原因很多，美国农业部表示将母鸡终身关在笼子所产生的压力，使其更容易患病，且笼子特别难以清洁和消毒，导致笼子上有「大量粪便和灰尘的污染」 (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
籠飼雞蛋是殘忍的
就像狗和猫一样，鸡是聪明的，是个会感到快乐和痛苦的聪明个体，限制动物一生在狭小几乎无法转身的空间是错误的。(24)(24)
笼饲系统对动物太残忍以至于数十个国家是禁止使用的，世界上每一个主流动物保护组织都谴责将产蛋母鸡限制在笼子里是残忍且不人道的。(25, 26, 27)
这里有几个组织的说法：
「笼饲系统被认为是限制动物行为最残忍的方式之一，且对食品没有安全保障。」
雪蘭莪防止虐待動物協會
「关在笼里饲养的母鸡更容易受到压力和伤害，且沙门氏菌感染的风险提高」
世界動物保護協會
「对母鸡这种聪明、活跃的动物来说，关在如此小的笼子，几乎一生不能移动一英寸是不人道的」
