They are improving the percentage of their beans that are organic. They are part owned by MacDonald's, which makes them somewhat evil. Except MacDonald's hired that keen autistic woman who understands animals to make their slaughtering houses more humane, which makes it more complicated.
But there's one thing I know, and that's I try to buy burritos from local shops in the Mercado Central and such places instead of the big conglomerate. But is La Loma's chicken "raised without antibiotics, without growth hormones, on 100 percent vegetarian feed without any animal by-products, in humane and free-ranging situations."? I don't know. I'm a little afraid to ask.
This is a pretty good article by local reviewer Dara Moskowitz, talking about good meet locally, and the importance of selling the whole animal. Of particular interest is the Cafe Barbette/Bryant Lake Bowl combo, where Barbette gets the good spendy meat of a steer, and Bryant LAke the rest for its burgers and such.
