I've read Omnivore's Dilemma -- very interesting. I have some
agricultural background and found the descriptions of the different
farming methods very interesting. I especially enjoyed the second
section on sustainable farming. It's quite long but worth reading if
you're interested in how your food gets to you.
I think the plus for free-range chickens is not the exercise, but the
food supply. If they are truly free-range, they will be eating grass, weeds, bugs, and the like. I grew up on a farm and we always had
chickens. In the summer when the chickens were running free, the egg
yolks had a darker color due to the difference in the hens' diet. Also
when the cows started going to pasture in the spring, the milk started
to taste different due to the change in diet.

Thanks for the bug fix on my spelling. I was fascinated by the
Polyface Farm section. I wish we had something like that I could
use.
I'm trying really hard to not buy conventional beef but it's tough.
The Fresh Market sells grass fed strip steaks, and I'm using ground
bison because it's fairly local and won't be coming out of the big
McDonalds hamburge factory. But outside of that, there's not much
around here.
